Woodform brought concealed fixing tongue-and-groove cladding
to Australia. In Europe timber cladding is perennially popular, we took
cladding to the next level and Australian architects fell in love all over again.
Expression Cladding has breathed new life into cladding, with the introduction of
shiplap cladding in a range of sleek and modern profiles, timbers and finishes.
With so much choice and flexibility, it’s no wonder architects approve.
Expression Cladding is finely-detailed and easy-to-install; designed around
timber movement, it allows for shrinkage and expansion. This versatile system
comes with a range of proprietary corner solutions in timber and aluminium.

Expression Cladding is amazingly flexible and functional, but here at
Woodform Architectural we never rest on our laurel’s, we had to ask
ourselves: how can we double-down on what made Expression Cladding
so popular in the first place? How can we expand on the already vast
range of options and make it more versatile than ever?
Turns out the answer is deceptively simple: what about the fourth
dimension? With the brand new ‘Element’ profile and a range of new
sizes adding depth to our standard profiles, Expression Cladding has
entered the fourth dimension.
Now you can add ribs, furrows, and varied depths right across your
cladding. Used vertically or horizontally, this new dimension of depth
can be combined with board widths, timbers, and finishes to create a
signature cladding texture that is all your own. The sky is truly the limit.

Here at Woodform Architectural, we believe in
giving adventurous designers the freedom to
express their creative intent through a seamless
combination of modular concealed fixing and a
wide range of linear textures.
Be daring! Be bold! Be unique!
Don’t ask whether it can be done, ask why it can’t.
The material should become an extension of the
designers vision, without the vagaries of technical
limitations holding you back.
To the absolute limit of possibility, that is our
intention with Expression Cladding. Incorporate
any combination of cladding profile, timber, and
finish to create your own design signature in
interior or exterior applications.

profiles
Queenscliff
Inspired by Lego blocks, this minimal square design is available in a
large range of sizes, giving designers complete freedom.
p r o f i l e s
The slim, shadow lines can be used to create a myriad of textures,
from a 3D random block effect to a linear sea of fine lines.
Suitable for vertical and horizontal use in
partly-shaded exteriors and interiors.

Element
Element was developed in direct response to
designers asking for a way to include deep battens
within a cladding facade. The solution is an
aluminium extrusion element that allows a deep
batten to be integrated with the Queenscliff Profile.
With Element you can produce virtually any texture
you want by mixing the sizes from the Element and
Queenscliff ranges. This new level of freedom adds
an unprecedented new type of depth to your facade,
allowing you to play with shadow. It really is a
‘4th dimension’.
Suitable for interiors, or partly shaded
exteriors vertically.

Sorrento
The slim, symmetrical and gently tapering
lines of Sorrento suit virtually any architectural
style. From heritage to contemporary, this
versatile Woodform-designed profile has
become an industry standard in shadowline
design. The gentle taper allows for water run
off, making it suitable for multiple applications.
Suitable for vertical or horizontal applications
in exteriors and interiors.

Whitsunday
Whitsunday is a relaxed and expressive
profile suited to coastal designs.
Combating wind and rain, the steeply-
sloping bottom edge of the shadow line
allows water to drain away more rapidly,
reducing the amount of moisture driven up
over the tongue and into the wall cavity.
Suitable for horizontal use in exteriors
and interiors.

Vaucluse Profile
Vaucluse
Understated but smart, minimal but
definite; Vaucluse features a v-shaped
shadow line that is sharper and deeper
than traditional v-joints. Named for the
prestigious Sydney suburb, Vaucluse
draws attention to the natural beauty of
the timber in internal applications like
entrance lobbies and meeting areas.
Suitable for vertical or horizontal
use in prestige interiors
(no expansion allowance).
