Minerit HD Fiber Cement Boards (painted) on a rainscreen system for the Community Corporation of Santa Monica. Daly Genik Architects, Ruiz Bros. Construction, RT Framing.
Quite an unremarkable piece of cladding, with sporadic and irregular darker stone. The street sign is original pre-world war I
I'm not clear how the cladders chose where to put the contrasting blocks...perhaps they used the I-Ching.

Cherry Crest Elementary School with Red Fiber Cement Boards on a rainscreen (overlap) system. Architect: NAC Architecture
The end wall is of original yellowish brick, as next door. The classical forms around the door make this somewhat unexciting piece of cladding more interesting. Unusually the porch entrance has also been clad in stone. Sadly, the classical baluster motif has been excised from the tableau above the doorway.

This time I took my tripod as I wandered around the Broley barn again on a hot day when I caught sight of this particular spot that had been clad with corrugated metal for protection from the weather, grin! I admit that I am still looking Broley's over to try to get my seeing ability untracked. Decisions! I may yet visit again even before the weather cools in the fall. I think that the skies have to turn better and the smoke clears first. That might be any day after June this year. Nobel physicists from N.C.A.R. have pointed out the complications of the ratio between record highs and record lows that never changed much up through the seventies even through the dust bowl. One scientist mentioned the evil words "Global Warming." I expect that "Romoney" and the righties have their own reasons why the high records are so badly balanced today. Fantasy no doubt. The 2010-11 result was supposedly 2.8 times over what ought to be an even ratio. Two N.C.A.R. scientists claim it is now 10:1, 11:1 or 13.5:1 imbalance. It chills my blood (if only something could). One scientist said: get ready regardless of what the politicians tell you! We've already burned more of New Mexico and Colorado than ever before and now Montana is going up and we here are sending "special" storms to you folks out east. If only putting more petroleum into our air would help, the righties, themselves could blow smoke into the air. Or perhaps the righties ought to limit their expertise to blowing smoke up you! I hope you liked the last storm we sent!
Confidence men like Boy George and Romoney won't give up on you, they will surely come back for more so I'd suggest keeping you hands in your own pockets. Michael Milken went to prison for his tricks but now Bane Capital change the name of the heist to hide it from the marks! Come to think of it, this cladding sure looks like the Mittster's Magic Underwhere.
This brings a thought of building economically to mind. I guess that if the thought of building well never comes to mind, you won't mind rebuilding again too much. Time to cover the Broley barn for a third time!
Several months ago, we decided that the house needed a bit of freshening up. The cladding is at least fifty years old, and had never been refinished. It was getting pretty dingy. In addition, it was a white colour, and did not set off the original wood trim. We chose a beige off-white that both wouldn't show the dirt, and would make the trim "pop" a bit. The trim also received a fresh white and green boost.
Then we looked at the interior. The uostairs and downstairs halls hadn't been redone in twenty years. Although the kitchen, family room, den and living room were done about four years ago, there was some cracking in the walls and ceilings that came about when we installed air conditioning, thereby changing the temperature equilibrium of the house.
At present, the painters are stripping the upstairs and downstairs halls, and are removing layers of paper that go back to the beginnings of the house in 1859.
The painters suggested that I document the stripping to add to the record of the house. Here's the result.
All-in-all it's been a busy year, what with a pregnancy, Hepatitis C, etc., but...what the hell! Right?
The next step is to skim-coat the driveway. I was going to have it replaced, since i'ts rather old, but again...what the hell! Right?
Next year, I might tackle the gardens. I place emphasis on the word "might".
