7 houses with a unique vertical facade

Oh yes – you may have seen Cedral sidings on quite a few buildings. Traditionally, these weatherboards are installed horizontally.

But vertical placement has been trending as of late: it makes for a very clean and contemporary effect in any façade. We have collected our favourite vertical façades for your inspiration!

1. Planks that top it off

This cafe/bar has been refurbished to tremendous effect. Cedral's ability to be fixed vertically enabled the designers to visually elongate the height of the first floor extension, giving it a more pleasing proportion in relation to the larger main building as well as a contemporary feel.

2. The White House

Beautiful, private house with a nice black-and-white contrast. The rough, dark bricks fit perfectly with the white, vertically placed Cedral Wood. The architect chose to finish the vertical Cedral Wood with an open joint, resulting in a very sleek look.

3. The Black House

The Black House is named appropriately for its complete black exterior. The home owners had a clear vision of what they wanted in their own home, minimalistic and unique. They chose to use Cedral Click in the wood finish, and opted to install it vertically for even more impact.

4. Go for colour

Yes, black and white are great, but why not a dash of colour? This house is both colourful and harmonious with its deep hue in Burnt Red. Thanks to the vertical planks, installed in alternating fashion, this house jumps out of the ordinary!
