Christopher Kellie Design Inc. Good eye! Yes, the siding is BarkHouse bark siding--an awesome natural product that doesn't require additional maintenance or upkeep. Their book, Bark House Style (available on Amazon and B&N) has lots of great pictures, history and ideas for application. Sorry for the delayed response, thanks for the inquiry!

What Houzz contributors are saying:
added by Becky Harris to Houzz Tour: A Horse-Country Home Blends Rustic and Modern
The bark shingles have a long local history. "Bark in the shingle form first appeared in the resort town of Linville, just a few miles from Banner Elk, in the late 1890s," says Simmons. "Architect Henry Bacon, who designed the Lincoln Memorial, is credited with its formal introduction. Chestnut barkwas used on these original structures, some of which can still be found intact in the area today." The use of bark shingles halted with the chestnut blight that hit in the early 1900s until 1990, when another husband-and-wife team founded BarkHouse, which brought them back (they use poplar bark). "Tree bark was traditionally a waste product but is now a sustainably manufactured, maintenance-free product with natural beauty that will remain intact for decades," says Simmons.Windows: Kolbe Push Out Casement Windows in Chutney, Mountain Lumber Company in Boone, North Carolina
added by John Hill to Get the Story of Wonderful Windows From Both Sides
More typical rectangular windows derive many of their differences from details. In this case the color of the window frame is particularly important, setting it off from the bark siding. The inclusion of divided panes also gives the window a finer scale that is appropriate given the siding.

These shingles could be used in place of natural stone, and could work in conjunction with Hardi-Plank. However, I have a feeling they are VERY expensive. Not many of them produced and you have to get your order in WAY ahead of time.
