The home is composed of three buildings, and exterior features reSAWN TIMBER co.’s MONOGATARI 2.0 shou sugi ban charred Cypress cladding. The dark wood aesthetic accents the perfect tones of the natural environment. Due to the heavy snowfall in Wilson, Wyoming, Cypress was used for the exterior cladding.

MONOGATARI 2.0 by reSAWN TIMBER co. features CHARRED CYPRESS burnt in the Japanese style of shou sugi ban. MONOGATARI 2.0 is carefully charred, misted with water, cooled, brushed, and then finished.

Located in a gated community on Candlewood Isle, this home has panoramic views of Candlewood Lake, the largest lake in Connecticut. The Isle not only offers stunning views but also provides a clubhouse, tennis courts, camps for kids, bocce, and social events. The exterior of the home features almost 4,000 sq. ft. of TEAK Abodo cladding and louvers and 3,000 sq. ft. of PONZU Shou Sugi Ban Charred Cypress. The contrast of PONZU on the roof planes and soffits tastefully complements the varying widths of Abodo cladding and louvers.

The recent Wallpaper* Magazine publication notes, “The timber and concrete forms appear cascading towards the water, connecting the owners to the landscape and allowing them to take in nature at every corner. ‘The starting point for this weekend house in Connecticut was to provide a direct relationship with the lakeside landscape and a platform to experience space and nature,’ says practice co-principal Max Worrell. ‘Part of the goal of the project was to minimize the house’s presence and perceived size from the street. We ended up layering planes and stacking volumes to break up the mass of the house as it cascades down the hill,’ adds his co-principal Jejon Yeung.”

reSAWN TIMBER co’s Abodo Fine Sawn Face Vulcan Cladding provides a unique, textured surface with beautiful grain depth. This fine sawn texture opens the wood grain to allow for optimal coating performance. The thermal modification process and vertical grain structure mean Vulcan cladding has superior stability and reduced resin content. TEAK by reSAWN TIMBER co. features Abodo Vulcan Cladding finished with Abodo Protector Oil which uses the latest in waterborne oil technology combining refined plant oils, UV protection, advanced water barrier composition, and an enhanced fungicidal package for superior exterior performance. PONZU is carefully charred, misted with water, cooled, brushed, and then finished. The burning process accentuates the wood grain and creates varying colors when viewed from different angles and in different light.

Founded in 2014 by Max Worrell and Jejon Yeung, Worrell Yeung‘s practice synthesizes complex systems and needs into clear conceptual solutions that are precise and considered. Working across several scales and typologies—from adaptive reuse and public space to ground-up residential and cultural—they approach every project as an opportunity to create work that is adaptable to the present climate, focused on function, and enduring.
