A major shift out of subtle “earthtones” and into bold, dark greys and blues with white accents has become a very popular trend. Additionally, varying siding profiles like board and batten as well as shakes in the gables can add extra charm to the trend.
Using the white trim with dark grey siding is both on-trend and timeless.

GO BOLD WITH RICH COLORS
Richer, more vibrant colors are very popular right now - colors like deep reds, and rich, dark greens.
Multiple Textures
MIXING MATERIALS AND PROFILES
A popular trend is utilizing multiple siding profiles and together like horizontal lap siding with vertical board and batten in the gables. It can even be taken further by incorporating brick and/or stone as well.
Things to look for in the future
New trends come and go, but a few themes continue to be popular like eco-friendliness, ease of maintenance siding options, and durability. A new siding product which touches on all three is the ASCEND Composite Cladding panel from Alside.
