Denver’s River North Arts District, better known as RiNo, began as a grass roots movement to connect local art organizations. In a neighborhood with small craft breweries, coffee shops, and restaurants, the 3011 Lawrence project mixes a modern, industrial style with natural HADAKA shou sugi ban wood siding to create a residence that recognizes the local art scene and sustainability movement.

With a double lot sized property, 3011 Lawrence is designed to maximize both and indoor spaces. The project features wide, three level front and back sections that allow for ample living areas while the middle section is narrow with high ceilings. On the exterior, the house utilizes an industrial aesthetic with shipping containers, HADAKA shou sugi ban, and concrete. The backyard includes the original property’s outer brick wall and an in ground trampoline.

On a quiet block in Manhattan Beach, CA, the 21st Street residence garners immediate attention for its lush, green landscaping and use of HOWAITO shou sugi ban exterior siding. The property maintains a small footprint, but it’s noticeable for a clear commitment to color contrasts and sustainability. In addition to charred shou sugi ban siding, the residence’s exterior captures the setting California sun with an abundance of large windows.

Perhaps more visually intriguing than the natural wood siding, design and build firm Beach House Design & Development included a garage door, gate, and fence crafted out of HOWAITO shou sugi ban charred cypress. HOWAITO’s juxtaposition with the white features of the house highlights the charred wood’s texture and color variation. Additionally, the dark colored balcony railing creates a dynamic level of contrast between dark and light aesthetics.

Just two blocks up from the Pacific Ocean, this Manhattan Beach, CA residence embodies the region’s architecture with large windows, natural materials, and a modern aesthetic. The beach house takes advantage of the ocean climate with multi-level wrap around porches that include chairs pointing towards the setting sun. With a focus on sustainability and natural materials, design and build firm, Beach House Design and Development specified reSAWN’s IRUKA shou sugi ban exterior siding.

Due to narrow beachfront lots, many Manhattan Beach properties take on a similar slender, rectangular shape. The shape allows homeowners to maximize interior square footage with a reduced footprint. The Beach House Design & Development home rises slightly over the other homes with its open two-story foyer that complements the 3-story entry glass curtain wall. Additionally, open expansive rooms are flooded with natural lighting through the exterior floor to ceiling window and door systems. Complementing the use of IRUKA shou sugi ban exterior siding and adding more natural wood, the interior is largely made up of reclaimed French Oak and Walnut.

The “lanes” in Amagansett, New York, are a set of walkable streets perpendicular to Main Street, dotted with a diverse range of houses and styles, that are walking distance to the ocean.

One of MB Architecture’s challenges was creating a home that would accommodate the owners wish for a maintenance-free house with longevity, inside and outside. This led to building shapes and materials that would be hardy, devoid of delicate detailing, and requiring no re-finishing over time. 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 naturally over time. On the exterior of the house, the concrete gives way to a the shou sugi ban charred cypress, starting a play between these two materials that extends throughout the house — contrasting spaces of recluse (wood) with foundational anchoring walls (concrete).

MB Architecture chose to carry reSAWN’s custom shou sugi ban charred cypress throughout the interior of the home. They also incorporated reSAWN’s GOVERNOR European white oak flooring and custom North American white oak ceiling cladding.

reSAWN’s shou sugi ban charred cypress is carefully charred, misted with water, cooled, brushed and then stained/sealed.  The top coat sealer is applied prior to shipping (for exterior applications, we recommend sealing the back side as well as the face).  The burning process accentuates the wood grain and creates varying colors when viewed from different angles and in different light.

reSAWN’s shou sugi ban charred cypress products are made with cypress sourced from the Southern United States and can be used for interior wall cladding, ceiling cladding and exterior siding.  With its legendary beauty and natural durability, cypress has long been a staple as an exterior wood siding product.  Because cypress generates its own preservative oil, called cypressene, it’s an ideal wood for locations with constant heat, humidity, and torrential rains.

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.  For interior applications, expect little to no change.

GOVERNOR features wide plank European White Oak flooring and wall cladding prefinished with hardwax oil.

reSAWN’s European White Oak is prefinished and available in engineered construction. The engineered material comes standard at 5/8” thick with a substantial 4 mm wear layer, or 3/4” thick with a full 6 mm wear layer for a truly superior product. The 7” face width showcases the full character and grain pattern that European White Oak has to offer.

reSAWN’s North American White Oak products feature wide plank wood flooring, wall cladding, and millwork/stairs that are CHARRED or prefinished and available in solid & engineered construction.  The North American White Oak products are made using domestic woods such as Rift & Quarter Sawn White Oak.  These designs emphasize the natural color & beauty of these woods.
