“All exterior materials, from reSAWN’s custom shou sugi ban charred cypress to raw concrete walls, to the zinc roof, were chosen for their ability to weather and patina gracefully, naturally over time.” — Architect Maziar Behrooz (read the full article here)

Six Square House is located in Bridgehampton, New York. The home is made of six 24’ x 24’ modules that all feature gabled geometry and a complex-looking roof design that’s shaped like an inverted V. The modules create a seamless and uninterrupted design between the roof and siding of the home. The simple exterior materials accentuate the roof geometry from all viewpoints. The roof composition translates into the home’s interior, creating six distinct areas.
The 3,500 square foot house contains two bedrooms, three bathrooms, a kitchen, living spaces, an outdoor porch, and a garage. For entertaining, the living spaces open directly onto the yard, featuring a central court, meadow, and pool house. The kitchen looks into the triangular court, with views of the open porch and surrounding landscape.
IKIGAI by reSAWN TIMBER co. features charred Accoya wood burnt in the Japanese style of shou sugi ban. IKIGAI can be used for interior or exterior wall cladding. Accoya wood is the result of decades of research and development that has brought together a long-established, extensively proven wood modification technique and leading-edge patented technology – acetylation to create a high-performance wood, ideal for outdoor use and challenging applications.

Situated at Lake Oswego, Oregon this modern residence features reSAWN’s NIGIRI charred Accoya wood. Inspired by a Southern California Aesthetic, this custom build home by Vanillawood aims to capture maximum natural light while taking advantage of the private wooded property. Dramatic architectural arches are repeated in the front and back.
Home to many Portland-area business leaders and professionals, Lake Oswego is known for its natural beauty, recreational and cultural amenities, and sense of community.
reSAWN takes great pride in designing products on high-performance, stable domestic softwoods and contemporary modified woods. Charring adds an extra layer of protection to wood’s structural durability. The process carbonizes the wood’s surface and creates an outer char layer that protects against rot, insects, and moisture related decay in exterior applications.
At Vanillawood they create, design, build and furnish spaces with an aesthetic that has been indelibly informed by their time living in Italy (where the husband and wife Co-Founders met), New York, Los Angeles and now Portland. After opening their doors in 2016 they are now a bustling, full-service design/build and interior design firm with a brick-and-mortar storefront and online shop where they get to work with an amazing team.

NERO :: Vulcan Cladding
Located in the hills of Hamilton, Brisbane, Zephyr Industries designed an entertainer’s high-end paradise.

Breaking tradition, this residence follows a dark and textured aesthetic; Vulcan timber cladding with NERO Protector Oil, blackened off form concrete, metal sheeting, glass and vegetation creep down the hill.
To create a range of spatial ties to the outside, whether it is views of the city and river or to beautiful landscaping, a program of vertical spaces were created.
Vulcan Decking is created from thermally modified New Zealand plantation timber. It’s treated with an organic preservative system that includes water repellent for superior durability. NERO was designed especially for Vulcan timber, to provide the longest possible life between maintenance cycles.
This residence spans five stories with 11,000 square feet of living space and unobstructed river and city views from every level.
Vulcan timber is so lightweight, the material was used on the garage doors as well.

The most recent collaboration between Ross Barney Architects and McDonald’s unveils a Net-Zero Energy restaurant at the Walt Disney World Resort, featuring over 15,000 sq. ft. of reSAWN’s HALLO shou sugi ban charred Kebony wood.
Aiming to become the first Net Zero Energy quick service restaurant, McDonald’s wanted to stick to its commitment to building a better future through “Scale for Good” when building this Disney Flagship location. Incorporating visible and impactful symbols of change, the restaurant deploys architecture and technology to firmly place itself in the future.
“Under a shed clad in solar panels, the restaurant is a sustainable and healthy response to the Florida climate. Energy consumption is reduced by optimizing building and kitchen systems. On-site generation strategies include: 18,727 square feet of photovoltaic panels, 4,809 square feet of glazing integrated photovoltaic panels (BiPV), and 25 off-the-grid parking lot lights produce more energy than the restaurant uses.” – Ross Barney Architects

SiOO:X :: Vulcan Cladding
Nestled in Taupo’s Hilltop suburb this residence features Abodo’s Vulcan timber in SiOO:X finish, used extensively throughout the exterior of the home. Details extend from the front door to the spacious “all-weather” barbeque area. Built as a show home by Design Builders Taupo, this house is no standard build.
SiOO:X Wood Protection on Abodo® Vulcan Cladding by reSAWN TIMBER co. for exterior cladding features a water-based and environmentally friendly finish, with a unique, patented formula based on silicon-potassium designed to accelerate the natural weathering process.
Weathered wood is an aesthetic that is increasingly sought after but the challenge is, how to achieve it without taking the risk of uneven weathering on different aspects of the building, or in protected areas, such as overhanging eaves. Design Builders achieved a point of difference by utilizing the WB10 profile in random width, combined with the scandi-style SiOO:X finish, which will gradually silver to a soft low maintenance patina.
SiOO:X provides a solution by mirroring the natural aging process and accelerating the creation of the silver-grey appearance and giving long life protection in a completely environmentally friendly way. SiOO:X penetrates the wood and gives a light surface that is pleasant to touch. Apart from the surface being beautiful, it also is a barrier to algae, mold and rot from gaining a hold in the wood. The surface is very easy to wipe down making maintenance simpler. The SiOO:X treatment reinforces and strengthens the wood surface.
