Prow Floor Plans
Prow floor plans are traditional American architecture for residential homes. The term prow originated from the construction of the home resembling the front of a ship, otherwise known as the prow or bow.
Prow floor plans are often built today in areas that provide an unforgettable view. To take full advantage of the design style of a prow floor plan, the best places to build these homes are near mountains, forests, or lakes.

While they are several types of different wood siding you can choose from, such as redwood siding, cedar is one of the most common types of siding used in the design of a prow floor plan. The cedar siding usually compliments the environment a prow floor plan is built within, as well as, paying tribute to the original look ships used to have, which of course prow styles are modeled after.
