Project Update: Lunawood Siding at the Modern Woodland Retreat

Expert Craftsmanship at Every Detail

Progress is moving fast on the Modern Woodland Retreat project in Liberty, Missouri. Today we’re taking a closer look at the siding that’s bringing both durability and natural beauty to this home. We’re using Lunawood Official thermally modified wood siding, a sustainably sourced material that undergoes a heat and steam process to enhance its strength, stability, and resistance to moisture—without the need for chemicals.


This means greater durability, lower maintenance, and a stunning natural finish that weathers beautifully over time.



Vertical Siding + Rain Screen

To install vertical Lunawood siding over our ventilated rain screen, we opted for diagonal furring strips instead of the traditional vertical layout. This method creates a drainage path for water behind the siding without requiring an additional layer of horizontal strips on top of the rain screen.

The Kala Finish Team has done an excellent job so far installing the siding. Continue following along for more project updates - this is a fun one!
