Achieving An Inviting Siding Design

When it comes to creating an inviting and enduring exterior, Pura NFC by Trespa is a smart choice. A home's exterior should exude warmth and curb appeal. Pura Wood Décors makes it effortless to achieve the aesthetic desired. Eric Cashion, owner of Siding Solutions in Encinitas, California, was trusted with the exterior installation on the new construction residence featured here. 

The standout exterior design includes striking multi-tiered soffit element and angled roof. Mixed siding materials including Pura wood décor, ivory brick and gray trim add excitement and highlight the unique design elements. 

Tropical Ipe is a rich and consistent wood-look siding color. An ideal solution to balance the cool colors and hard surfaces of brick and trim, warming the curb appeal and entryway. Plus, it's a low maintenance, highly fade-resistant option in a climate with very strong UV, ensuring decades of homeowner satisfaction.

By using a quality wood-look siding like Pura NFC, it visually softens the overall feel of harder features and cooler color accents. It’s a front entry that says “welcome home” to the homeowners and visitors alike.

A Range of Consistent Wood Décor Options

Available in beautifully realistic wood tones in a range of siding colors, it's simple to create the look that complements any architectural style. By contrasting Pura NFC with other materials, you can add depth and visual interest to the façade.

The beauty of natural wood, like Ipe hardwood, is in the variation of color, but that is not always the goal in an exterior home design. One of the biggest advantages of Pura NFC is its deep, fade-resistant, color consistency that lends itself to both full exterior or accented siding designs.

Pura Wood Decors offer the option of steady color to wrap the exterior in color. Use as a vibrant accent, or stand out as a contrast to stucco or brick.

Since this project is in Southern California, fading from high UV exposure is a concern. One huge benefit of Pura Wood Décor is the lab proven fade resistance even when exposed to the strength of unrelenting Florida sunshine.

Pura NFC also has proven to resist warping and cracking from high heat or fluctuating temperatures, all backed by a 10 year limited warranty. 

This ensures long-term client satisfaction and avoids the frustration of callbacks due to aesthetic issues like cracks, bending, or fading.

Since Pura NFC maintains its rich color and never needs refinishing, it eliminates the need for costly and time-consuming maintenance. It cleans with just soap and water!

Easier Installation Equals Design Versatility

Siding installers and home builders understand the difficulties of covering soffits with siding in traditional installations.

Installing on soffits and the ability to create clean corners in the entryway and exterior walls was easy - and a time-saver - thanks to the Mataverde® Climate-Shield CST1 Rainscreen System.

The CST1 system was designed specifically for use with Pura NFC Siding, including the patented CST1 rainscreen clip made to fit Pura siding planks. It allows significantly more design versatility than traditional flush mount installation.

Adding Pura Tropical Ipe with Climate-Shield rainscreen clips to the soffits creates a mix of textures and colors

The CST1 Rainscreen clip attaches easily with one screw and anchors the Pura NFC siding planks in place consistently, staying fixed in high winds and storms while creating the perfect rainscreen gap between the planks for bulk water to flow through and escape. 

Using Climate-Shield CST1 with the Pura siding offers numerous advantages, including improved ventilation, water management, and releasing warm and humid air from behind the siding.

By eliminating the need for a furring strip grid behind the field siding, you can save both time and money on materials and labor. This efficiency equals cost savings without compromising on quality or aesthetics.

Additionally, the ability to cover soffits and other architectural elements with your siding opens up endless design possibilities, allowing you to create a uniquely custom and sophisticated look.

For this stunning exterior, being able to add the Pura Tropical Ipe how and where they wanted it achieved the curb appeal they envisioned.
