Crafted for two residents, the Gray House borders a lush field creating tranquil scenery. To capitalize on the views of the field, Ted Porter Architects integrated large panes of southern-facing windows to fully showcase the landscape. The U-shaped layout maximizes the separation between the bedroom wings of each occupant, with shared spaces connecting these wings. The continuous gabled structure pays homage to the vernacular farm buildings prevalent in the area. Clad in charred SAMITTO Accoya®, it adds a sense of history and character to the home, complementing the town’s architectural style. Accoya®, renowned for its sleek charcoal aesthetic and minimal maintenance requirements, will age gracefully with the untouched landscape for decades to come.

SAMITTO by reSAWN TIMBER co. features charred Accoya® wood burnt with the Japanese Shou Sugi Ban technique. SAMITTO can be used for interior or exterior wall cladding. Accoya® wood is the outcome of decades of research and development, combining a well-established and extensively proven wood modification technique with leading-edge patented technology – acetylation, delivering a high-performance wood solution for outdoor use and in challenging applications.

Project Needs: The clients prioritized durability, minimal upkeep, and consistent weathering for their cladding choice, aiming for a timeless aesthetic with a modern edge while respecting the surrounding protected landscape.

Project Solutions: The clients were impressed by the exterior cladding of the Boland Residence, a relative’s house nearby. They worked closely with a reSAWN Specification Consultant to review design options, samples, and installation guidelines for various charred Accoya® products. Among these options, SAMITTO stood out as the preferred choice due to its lighter charred appearance, improved durability, low maintenance needs, and 50-year warranty.

Project Results: The extensive benefits of Accoya® wood allowed the clients to confidently choose the right cladding material for their home. SAMITTO’s light charred appearance offers a modern yet weathered aesthetic, seamlessly blending with the surrounding landscape rather than detracting from it.

The design for the Sierra Summit Project aimed to emulate the natural landscape of the Sierra Nevada Mountains that envelop the residence in Truckee, CA. Tailored for nature enthusiasts, this retreat is conveniently situated near Lake Tahoe and an abundance of hiking and biking trails. Enhancing the exterior of the 3,449 sq. ft. home is the Abodo Vulcan cladding, imparting a timeless quality that seamlessly integrates with its surroundings as if it has been a harmonious part of the landscape for years. As seasons change and weather evolves, the Abodo Vulcan cladding not only maintains structural integrity but also weathers gracefully over time.

Abodo’s product line holds certification from the California Building Commission, making it eligible for inclusion in the Building Materials Listing Program (BML) Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI) Products Listing. Abodo distinguishes itself as one of the few approved cladding materials for buildings situated in WUI zones. Architects and contractors can reliably specify Abodo for use in all regions, without facing constraints from WUI restrictions. This flexibility is important for projects like the Sierra Summit Project, emphasizing the significance of choosing safe building materials. Homeowners can be confident knowing that utilizing Abodo cladding enhances the safety and resilience of their homes against potential wildfire threats.

Project Needs: During an AIA luncheon, a reSAWN specification consultant introduced Ryan Borman Architects to the benefits of modified Abodo wood. Captivated by the product’s performance and easy-to-maintain finishes, the client saw it as a prospective option for their upcoming residential project, which demanded a premium-quality solution.

Project Solutions: The clients chose reSAWN TIMBER co.’s WALNUT Abodo wood as the prime option, satisfying both HOA standards and aligning seamlessly with their desired aesthetic. Their assurance in selecting this product stemmed from its durability and eco-friendly sourcing in a sustainably harvested forest.

Project Results: In House Builders conveyed immense satisfaction with both the installation process and the product’s quality. The Abodos CVG aesthetic, eco-friendly features, and durability were influential factors that led the architects to choose the same material for their upcoming projects.

The Bill ’67 and Peter ’71 Alfond Coastal Research Center at The Governor Academy in Byfield, MA, offers experiential learning by providing students with the opportunity to engage in hands-on activities and real-world projects immersed in nature. The state-of-the-art facility, spanning 6,800 sq.ft., will incorporate an aquatic laboratory supplied with water sourced from the Parker River. The sun filtering through the tree canopy and gently touching the gray Accoya wood seamlessly integrates the building with its natural surroundings. Accoya wood stands out as a sustainable building material with a range of eco-friendly attributes. Sourced from responsibly managed forests, the fast-growing softwood used in Accoya undergoes an acetylation process that enhances its durability and resistance to decay without the use of toxic chemicals.

Project Needs: The building is an aquatic studies center on the campus of a prep school in Massachusetts, about 45 minutes north of Boston on a salt river. The clients were looking for something that would seamlessly blend the school building with its surrounding natural environment and offer an environment for students to do hands-on collaborative marine research in a lab environment.

Project Solutions: The clients decided that reSAWN TIMBER co.’s SAMITTO charred Accoya® was the optimal choice for the project’s open joint installation. They selected Accoya for its outstanding performance and durability. It’s especially well-suited for a climate with substantial weather variations and close proximity to saltwater.

Project Results: To seamlessly blend with its surrounding natural environment, the project called for durable wood siding, capable of both horizontal and vertical installation. This will deliver the desired outcomes for clients and offer students an exceptional learning experience.
