Cor-ten steel siding for the contemporary home

A Builder client of mine and I recently discovered that contemporary style homes are selling well in this dismal market.  He built and sold 5 homes in West Seattle this fall.  They were an experiment in finding a place in the market where a builder could still make money.  Happily he did.  The next project like that I design will use this Cor-ten siding.  The cabin above was built by a local design-build firm Build LLC.  The patina that develops in the Northwest weather is totally cool.
