We are doing a remodel on a beach cottage. We are trying to give it a little more of a contemporary look. We are replacing our exterior shingles with bat and board and ship lap.

We are also replacing all of our doors and windows with Kolbe and La Contina with much fewer window panes. We are putting a bifold door to the front patio.

We currently have french doors but I would prefer some beautiful sliders since our yard is small and they won't stick out in the yard.

What is current trend?
