The Shingle-Style Home Gets Reinvented for the 21st Century

Architect Scott Posno has designed a Shingle-Style house in British Columbia for 2025, aiming to refresh the look for modern living. The concept, Posno said, focuses on clean lines and a stronger connection to nature—an approach that updates the classic style rather than replicating older examples. The article also notes how early Colonial homes often used wooden shingles for their exterior cladding, setting the historical backdrop for the Shingle-Style’s evolution. A July lecture by architect Thomas A. Kligerman is cited as part of the discussion about how the form developed over time and why it persists.
