The exterior feature wall is the face of the home — the architectural surface that defines the character of the entire building from the outside, the wall that tells the world what kind of home lies behind it. The copper piece that makes the exterior feature wall feel as considered as the great architectural facades of the world.
Why Copper on the Exterior Wall
Copper is the material of the great architectural facade — the copper roof of the great cathedral, the copper cladding of the great civic building, the copper detail of the great residential facade. Copper has been part of the great architectural exterior tradition for centuries. Copper is one of the most weather-resistant materials for the exterior wall — the metal that does not rust, the material that develops its most dramatic patina in the outdoor architectural environment. And copper is architecturally permanent — the surface that is as permanent as the building it belongs to.
Front Elevation
A front elevation feature wall panel — the surface seen from the street, a heraldic composition, the house name in copper letterforms, a botanical composition, a geometric composition, a simple hammered texture. A full front elevation feature wall. A front elevation accent panel — the copper on a specific architectural feature of the facade.
Entrance
An entrance feature wall panel — the copper surrounding the front entrance, a heraldic composition, the house name above the entrance, a botanical composition. A full entrance surround panel. An entrance arch panel — the family crest on the keystone, a botanical composition on the arch. An entrance arch soffit panel — the copper on the underside of the arch, the surface seen when entering the home. An entrance pillar panel — the house name, the family crest.
Windows
A window surround panel — the copper framing the windows, a botanical composition in shallow relief. A window lintel panel. A window sill panel. A bay window feature panel — the family crest, a botanical composition.
Chimney
An exterior chimney breast panel — a botanical composition, the house name in copper letterforms. A full exterior chimney panel. A chimney cap panel.
Garage
A garage feature wall panel — a simple hammered texture, a botanical composition, the house name. A garage door surround panel.
Wall Art & Sculptures
A heraldic panel — the family crest in precise copper relief. A botanical panel. A geometric panel — the most contemporary exterior feature wall piece. A house number in three-dimensional copper. An eagle — the heraldic bird of the architectural guardian tradition. A lion head. Made to any size, prepared for the exterior wall environment.
Exterior Feature Wall Signs
The house name. The family name. The house number. The founding year. A welcome sign. An architectural quote. A private property sign. See all sign types on the Copper Signs & Plaques page.
"[House Name] — Est. [Year]" · "[Family Name]" · "Welcome Home." · "All Are Welcome Here." · "We shape our buildings; thereafter they shape us." · "Private Residence" · "This house has stood since [Year]."
Finish Note
Natural Copper, Antique Gold, and Silver suit the architectural aesthetic of the exterior facade. Antique Gold is the most architecturally specific finish — referencing the gilded architectural details of the great residential facades of history. Silver works especially well on exterior feature walls with a contemporary, minimal architectural aesthetic. Natural Copper suits traditional or classical architectural character.

"The entrance surround panel and the house name sign changed the entire exterior of the home. Every arrival, every departure, the copper makes the facade feel as considered as the interior rooms it introduces — the warm metal on the entrance wall, the hammered surface alive in the afternoon light. The exterior feature wall went from a rendered facade to an architectural statement. The copper made it a home with a face." — Natuross customer
