Modern Exterior
Black ACM and Oak-Tone Aluminum Siding Elevate Douglas Rd Toronto Home
Design Goals
- Add visual height to the front of the home without changing its shape
- Create contrast and balance between the upper and lower levels
- Use low-maintenance materials that still offer natural warmth and texture
Our Solution
- Vertical Aluminum Siding: Installed in a warm oak finish to make the home feel taller and soften the overall look
- Black ACM Panels: Placed horizontally across the front porch area to break up the facade and add structure
- Material Pairing: Combining wood-look siding with solid black ACM gave the house a clean, modern edge with a warm finish
Results
- The home now has stronger curb appeal and a more balanced exterior
- The oak siding complements the brick and keeps the look from feeling too dark
- Both materials are durable, weather-resistant, and maintenance-free
Project Overview
This modern home on Douglas Rd uses a mix of black ACM panels and oak-tone aluminum siding to create a bold, well-balanced exterior. Vertical aluminum siding helps the structure appear taller, while the horizontal black ACM across the front porch adds contrast and definition. The natural wood tones soften the dark metal and complement the brickwork for a warm, modern finish.
