I have done this detail in the past both ways (tight and with a shadow line) when I have run T&G cedar horizontally. After a year of weathering/movement, the shadow line detail is far superior because you see an uneven shadow on the tight joint in areas that make the cedar siding look less than perfect. The shadow detail hides this movement as the reveal/shadow is intentional. I look forward to seeing the finished product. Kevin – nice detail with the shadow line between T&G cedar.

You guys moving ahead with that project? I am in New Mexico now and would love to bid on the project if you are interested. To update you guys, we are breaking ground on the first of two Railyard Live/Work Buildings here in Santa Fe, NM in about 2 weeks. I'm very excited! If you are ever in this neck of the woods give me a shout and I can show you around. -Nicholas Williams Hey Andrew, what’s going on with your house in Colorado?

This, in combination with the darker stain, helped give us the appearance of a wider gap. This is a detail we looked at pretty carefully which makes us totally flattered that you took notice. Bob- thank you. A mere 11 years into this business and we're hitting our stride (ha ha).... Sean- we installed the T&G butted together but with the “V-groove” out.

On the horizontal cedar T&G siding, did you have the siding custom cut with a longer "tongue" in order to create a horizontal shadow line between coarses, or were they just installed with a small gap. . .or am I seeing a detail that isn't there?

The products that we decided on were T&G cedar installed horizontally, Prodema panels and Cembonit panels.

Considering it's in Seattle, wouldn't it be difficult to maintain with all the rain? Hi Build, I was wondering what kind of wood siding you used for the Magnolia house.
