Exterior Cabin Concrete Siding Material House Metal Roof Material Design Photos and Ideas

The exterior walls of Casa Quinta da Tília are painted the same color as the tin roof finishing, which is made from local Japanese cedar wood. The broad skylights in architect Pedro Maurício Borges's design not only draw in the wonderful Azores sunshine, but also frame the majestic, parasol-like crown of the linden tree.

A shot of the two houses from across the pond. “It's campfires by the pond, dinner cooked in the wood fire oven…we are living the dream,” say the brothers.

The rich material palette of stone, timber, glass, and board-formed concrete blend the home into the surroundings.

A glazed staircase placed on the south side of the building next to the hillside leads to the bedrooms on the upper level.

The house was strategically placed between the lake and an adjacent granite rock-face to capture key landscape views.

The property in Gooderham is set at the end of the original lake access road, and enjoys 1,300 feet of uninterrupted lakeside shoreline.
