Combining siding with stone and wood accents is the hallmark of 2026 design.
Mixed Material Mastery
The single biggest trend in 2026 is the use of multiple exterior textures. We are frequently installing James Hardie lap siding on the main body of the house, Board and Batten in the gables, and stone veneer accents around the foundation or entryway. This "layered" look adds depth and luxury that a single-material home lacks. Check out our latest siding projects in Alpharetta for inspiration.
Natural Wood Accents
To soften the look of modern dark sidings, many Marietta and Milton homeowners are adding natural wood elements. Cedar-look soffits or porch ceilings provide a warm, organic contrast to the industrial feel of fiber cement. We also see many homeowners pairing these with new gutters and window replacements for a complete exterior overhaul.
