Preston’s Kenai Stone Wainscoting
Preston Andersen upgraded his home’s exterior with Kenai stone wainscoting using GenStone panels. By wrapping the lower portion of the facade and front porch columns in stacked stone, the update adds depth and contrast beneath the white siding and dark shutters. The cool gray and earthy undertones in Kenai create a grounded base that gives the home a more finished, custom-built appearance.
Adding a stone wainscot transforms a flat exterior into a layered design. The horizontal stone profile visually anchors the home while tying together entry columns and foundation lines. The result is a cohesive upgrade that enhances curb appeal and makes the entire front elevation feel more substantial.
GenStone’s lightweight panels allowed for clean alignment along long wall runs and precise fits around porch columns.
Expert tip: For a seamless column finish, build your pillar base to 7.75″ x 7.75″ to ensure a perfect panel fit and crisp corners.
