STRENG AND EICHLER HOME HISTORY
The revered post and beam design of Streng and Eichler mid-century modern homes was built over 50 years ago, and while the appeal of their design has stood the test of time, the exposed beams have not. The beam’s original projection was 7 to up to 12 inches, and due to decay from years of exposure, most all have been cut back to the fascia leaving it exposed to the elements once more. Many Eichler and Streng homeowners are choosing to increase the value of their mid-modern home by restoring the exterior aesthetic, and for good reason. The Eichler and Streng home designs have become historic collector’s investments!
RETRObeam EXTENSIONS
For those mid-century modern enthusiasts, RETRObeam provides a simple and affordable solution to protect and restore the exterior aesthetic of post and beam architecture. RETRObeam has been carefully designed, and quality crafted to fully encapsulate the exposed beam while extending the look of the beam to its original projection of 7 to up to 12 inches. Each RETRObeam is measured with a tolerance of an eighth of an inch to create a balanced, seamless look. RETRObeams are water proof!
RETRObeam LONG SPANS
One of the prominent features of Eichler homes is the central atrium or courtyard, which serves as a focal point and brings natural light into the living spaces. However, these expansive long spans are also susceptible to decay over time. To address this, RETRObeam Long Spans have been crafted to envelop and revive these elongated spaces, adding a refined and modern look.
