Tucked away in beautiful Southampton is Twin Gables, a new single-family residence featuring over 8,000 square feet of SiOO:X cladding, roofing, trellis, and slats. This modern take on a classic farmhouse is the perfect blend of design and functionality. The home’s design and use of large windows allow for a lot of natural light while providing a glimpse into the surrounding beautiful views, including mature trees, local farmland, and Mecox Bay. Some of the amenities include two rooftop terraces, a living roof, and an inground pool.

THE UP STUDIO notes, “The Twin Gable roofline is visually separated by one gable’s fully-wrapped wood cladding, and the other being made from metal. The shift in roofline material speaks to the home’s status as a modern home in a historic, farming region.”

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.

SiOO:X mirrors the natural aging process and accelerates the creation of the silver-grey appearance and gives 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.

THE UP STUDIO is a full-service architecture, interior, and brand design studio that enhances people’s lives through concept-driven work. Their projects are customized to their clients’ needs, site specific, and rooted in a thoughtful design strategy. They believe that every design has a story to tell. To tell that story, they employ a multidisciplinary approach that combines broad ideas, diligent organization, and innovative tools, presented within a coherent narrative.

Volumetric cantilevers clad in shou sugi ban are perfectly situated on Copake Lake, surrounded by mature oak trees. The home’s architecture takes advantage of the surrounding landscape, with a well-thought-out blend of indoor and outdoor space that provides a quiet sanctuary away from city life. The expansive windows are a gateway to the views of the lake, allowing natural light to shine throughout the home. The exterior features reSAWN TIMBER co.’s IRUKA shou sugi ban charred Cypress. The charred Cypress and exposed concrete plinth provide a neutral design palette that pops with the surrounding landscapes.

Desai Chia specified IRUKA on a previous project and was familiar and keen with the material. They were looking for a weathered grey material from the start to see consistency on all sides of the building. They chose to install IRUKA in a reverse board and batten application to give depth to the cladding. Shou sugi ban Cypress provided the look, tonality, and texture desired. IRUKA was the perfect specification for this project.

Cypress is notable for its color consistency, density, and hardness. The oils in Cypress’ heartwood make it one of the most durable woods when exposed to moisture conditions causing decay. Charring adds an extra layer of protection to the wood’s structural durability. The shou sugi ban process carbonizes the wood’s surface and creates an outer char layer that protects against rot, insects, and moisture-related decay in exterior applications. reSAWN takes great pride in designing products on high-performance, stable domestic softwoods, and contemporary modified woods.

Katherine Chia FAIA and Arjun Desai AIA are the founding principals of Desai Chia Architecture. Since 1996, they have established the firm’s reputation for authentic design, creating inspiring environments expressive of their use and materials; Desai Chia’s portfolio includes cultural, residential, and commercial projects as well as commissions for product design and collaborations with artists. Their architecture celebrates conceptually bold design, deliberate eloquence, and graceful simplicity in order to better our collective experiences of space and place-making.

This private residence is situated on over 2 acres close to Martha’s Vineyard, with panoramic ocean views. The home’s design wanted to honor the history and natural beauty of the land. Given the 270-degree views of the surrounding landscape, including rolling hills, water, and woodland, they wanted to let the natural landscape be the focus. The property consists of the main house and detached guest quarters for guests. The architect notes, “The main house and guest quarters present as geometric volumes that appear to have been pulled apart to create a dynamic series of interior and exterior spaces.” The home features multiple reSAWN TIMBER co. products including exterior cladding, window jambs and trim, fencing, decking, rakes, and fascia. The level of detail that went into the architecture and design elevates the overall home.

Shou sugi ban Accoya® is a combination of high-performance modified wood and an award-winning charred technique. Inspired by an ancient Japanese process that dates back to the 1700s, shou sugi ban enhances the exterior performance and aesthetic value of natural wood products. Due to the enhanced durability of Accoya, a dense outer char layer allows the wood to seamlessly transition to a beautiful weathered look. All of our charred shou sugi ban Accoya products are FSC® certified and come with a 50-year warranty on the wood when used above ground; 25-year warranty when used at/below ground level.

With more than 35 years experience creating houses for discerning clients in challenging and protected environments, clients can count on Hutker Architects to hear their vision, to manage the myriad of details, navigate the red tape, and to be relentless in pursuit of that reality.

Surrounded by snow-covered mature trees, this private residence is the perfect retreat located in Soda Springs, California. The exterior features YOSHIMI shou sugi ban charred Accoya exterior cladding, and NIGIRI shou sugi ban charred Accoya soffits. The large windows throughout provide a look into the snow-covered landscape, allowing the beautiful scenery to be appreciated from inside the home. The concrete walls, combined with the shou sugi ban cladding and the surrounding snow, provide a contrast of design elements. The property sits on the edge of Serene Lakes, surrounded by approximately 3,000 acres of open space and trails.

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. By significantly enhancing the durability and dimensional stability of fast-growing and abundantly available certified wood species, Accoya wood provides compelling environmental advantages over slow-growing hardwoods (which are often unsustainably sourced), woods treated with toxic preservative chemicals, and non-renewable carbon-intensive materials such as plastics and steel.

Our award-winning charred products pay homage to the traditional Japanese technique of “shou-sugi-ban” aka “yakisugi” without being literal.  Historically very specific in their definition, “shou-sugi-ban” and “yakisugi” have become common nomenclature for modern charred wood designs in general.  All of reSAWN’s charred products are made in the USA, in our facility in Telford, PA.

Alexander Jermyn Architecture has developed a diverse body of work including residential, cultural, and commercial projects. The approach to each design problem is with an artistic and technical rigor guided by a commitment to craft in architecture. The work addresses the fundamental problems of space, proportion, light and materials, and their intrinsic properties within architecture. The intensive research for each project guides the design process in lieu of following a stylistic agenda, striving for an architecture from which multiple readings emerge, exploring the associations of program and space, material and detail, complexity and simplicity.

On two acres in upstate New York, this private residence features over 4,000 square feet of reSAWN TIMBER co. products. In addition to exterior wood cladding and soffits, reSAWN provided custom sills, caps, and trim. This attention to detail of the overall design truly elevates the finished project. The home is tucked away in the beautiful Hudson Valley, providing a secluded retreat for the homeowners. The use of IRUKA and CUSTOM Cypress provides a tasteful contrast compared to the lush greenery and landscaping. For a similar look to the CUSTOM cladding, we recommend MONOGATARI 2.0. The cladding is already weathering gracefully, and we cannot wait to visit again.

IRUKA by reSAWN TIMBER co. features charred Cypress burnt in the Japanese style of shou sugi ban and can be used for interior or exterior wall cladding. Our charring & sealing process makes for beautifully designed exterior wood siding. Like any exterior wood siding prefinished or finished in place, these materials will weather naturally over time and will require maintenance.

reSAWN’s charred offering features Accoya, Kebony, Cypress, Cedar, Black Walnut, Reclaimed Hemlock, and newly harvested Western Hemlock that is burnt in the Japanese tradition of shou sugi ban. Our award-winning charred products pay homage to the traditional Japanese technique of “shou-sugi-ban” aka “yakisugi” without being literal.  Historically very specific in their definition, “shou-sugi-ban” and “yakisugi” have become common nomenclature for modern charred wood designs in general.  All of reSAWN’s charred products are made in the USA, in our facility in Telford, PA.

SiOO:X – FSC®-Certified Abodo Vulcan Slats

The Grounds consists of 42 designer apartments and is New Zealand’s first engineered tall timber residential development. The project consists of four buildings, each three stories high. Minimizing construction time on site was a goal, with some of the building materials being prefabricated or pre-finished before being delivered on-site. With sustainability and eco-consciousness in mind, this development utilized Abodo’s locally sourced FSC® certified timber, with no added treatment chemicals. Abodo’s vertical slats were chosen for the screening due to its innate stability and superior weathering characteristics. The slats are finished with SiOO:X, which will weather to a beautiful silver-grey while offering overall low maintenance to the building.

The SiOO:X Wood Protection System is a reactive coating system that creates a unique protective barrier to timber. It is designed to minimize the frequency of maintenance when compared to other semi-transparent coatings by creating a surface that becomes more attractive as it ages. SiOO:X mirrors the natural aging process of wood by accelerating the creation of a weathered, silver-grey appearance while giving long-life protection in a completely environmentally friendly way.

Abodo thermally modified wood is another option that is durable and rapidly renewable. reSAWN TIMBER co.’s Abodo Vulcan slats are sourced from FSC® certified rapidly renewable New Zealand plantations. Engineered with a unique vertical grain, Abodo Vulcan slats have exceptional weatherability and maintain durability and beauty for a lifetime. Plus, with the release of an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD), Vulcan wood is the first verified carbon-negative feature timber. Abodo offers a 15-year warranty against fungal decay.

To be successful in a mountain environment such as Park City, Utah, these two key goals must be achieved while also providing a beautiful project which endures the test of time.

Atop a dune overlooking the Atlantic Ocean resides a modern passive home featuring IRUKA shou sugi ban charred Cypress exterior wood cladding. This Long Island residence has breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean and is a short walk to Napeague Beach, with seagrasses and sand dunes visible from all angles of the home. Divided into two large structures and connected by a single-story, window-lined walkway, the home’s layout provides a private environment with views of the beautiful surrounding landscape. Passive building principles and construction methods led to a low energy-consuming house.

IRUKA features charred Cypress burnt in the Japanese style of shou sugi ban. The burning process accentuates the wood grain and creates varying colors when viewed from different angles and in different light. Our award-winning charred products pay homage to the traditional technique of shou sugi ban, also known as yakisugi, without being literal. These techniques have become common nomenclature for modern charred wood designs. All of reSAWN’s charred products are made in the USA at our facility in Telford, Pennsylvania.

Cypress is notable for its color consistency, density, and hardness. Cypress trees generate cypressene, a naturally occurring preservative oil that makes the heartwood resistant to insects, decay, chemical corrosion, and other damaging elements. reSAWN’s charred Cypress has a Flame Spread Index of 40 and a Smoke Developed Index of 140 to give it a Class B Rating. Charred Cypress can be fire treated to Class A for interior projects. Cypress has several sustainability attributes, including its ability to lock in substantial amounts of carbon, making it a great addition to a sustainably conscious home for generations to come.
