Appalachian Ash

A Rustic, Weathered Driftwood Look Siding with Natural Wood Grain Texture

Inspired by aged timber and weathered landscapes, Appalachian Ash delivers a soft, lived-in tone with natural woodgrain texture—crafted for the durability of Artisan® fiber cement. For exteriors that call for organic warmth and quiet sophistication, this finish offers a beautifully balanced rustic wood look for Hardie Artisan® siding profiles.

Nature-Inspired and Designed to Last

Appalachian Ash captures the look of sun-aged driftwood with soft grey-brown hues and subtle tonal movement. Its matte finish and realistic wood grain pattern bring tactile, organic appeal—perfect for farmhouses, cabins, or contemporary builds looking to ground themselves in natural character.

Why Choose a Light Grey Rustic Wood Look for Artisan®?

Authentic Weathered Tone: Ashy grey meets warm undertones to mimic aged, rustic timber.

Fiber Cement Strength: Resists moisture, pests, UV damage, and fire—unlike real reclaimed wood.

Low Maintenance: No fading, warping, or re-staining required—just enduring beauty.

Architectural Dimension: Thicker boards and deeper shadow lines for a high-end, handcrafted appearance.

Design Flexibility: Works across traditional, craftsman, and contemporary styles.

Artisan WoodGrain™ in Appalachian Ash delivers the timeless texture of rustic wood without compromising durability. Whether used across an entire façade or paired with stone, steel, or natural accents, it adds depth and story to any exterior.
