    • The Baltimore Covered Bridge in Vermont features a lattice truss design that can be replicated on your home’s exterior. The lattice design is perfect for a porch railing and will cast beautiful shadows throughout the day.

    • The Goodpasture Covered Bridge in Oregon features a series of louvered windows. You can create the same feel by installing simple louvered shutters on your home’s exterior.
