MODERN LAKE HOUSE in VERNON, BC featuring shou-sugi-ban CHARRED wood exterior siding – MOYASU from reSAWN TIMBER co.’s CHARRED collection
reSAWN’s CHARRED collection features cypress, yellow pine and red oak that is burnt in the Japanese tradition of shou-sugi-ban. translated as “the burning of Japanese cypress (sugi)”, and traditionally used in Japan as exterior siding, this ancient technique is gaining new life as a unique and modern interior and exterior wall cladding. The wood is carefully charred, misted with water, cooled, brushed to remove dust and loose debris, and then stained/sealed to create the unique designs you will find in the CHARRED collection. The top coat sealer is applied prior to shipping (for exterior applications, we recommend sealing the face & back). the charcoal barrier created through this process preserves the wood, and is fire, rot and insect resistant. the burning process accentuates the wood grain and creates varying colors when viewed from different angles and in different light.
4 STORIES of NEW AMSTERDAM WHITE OAK FLOORING and STAIRS
This 4-story brownstone off Prospect Park in the popular, idyllic neighborhood of Park Slope, Brooklyn, NY features reSAWN’s NEW AMSTERDAM FSC ®, wide plank, original cut white oak flooring throughout. Redtop Architects also used reSAWN’s New Amsterdam for stairs throughout and to create a unique entertainment cubby with wood from floor to ceiling. New Amsterdam is a design that features our original cut white oak and ammonia fuming. The combination of the character in the wood and the rich, deep color from the fuming process creates a warm floor with plenty of visual interest. Redtop specified the flooring at 6″ wide and custom long lengths from 7-12′ to reduce seams and to create a feeling of flow throughout.

VOLVER RESTAURANT FEATURING RIVERBED WHITE OAK
Volvér (which means “to return”) opened its doors inside the Kimmel Center April of 2014. The restaurant features a chic bar and intimate dining area, and showcases the culinary talents of one of the country’s leading chefs and restaurateurs, Jose Garces.
Marguerite Rodgers Ltd. designed the serene and welcoming space, incorporating our RIVERBED white oak flooring into the final design. The firm is often praised for its incredible attention to composition and detail.
RIVERBED features our original cut white oak. original cut is a way of cutting the log that incorporates plain sawn, rift sawn and quarter sawn grain patterns and all grades and character marks into the final product. common character marks include knots, checks, streaks and worm holes. RIVERBED is prefinished with matte polyurethane.
wide plank flooring is a timeless and elegant flooring feature commonly found within late 19th century homes. due to the advanced age of trees during this time, thicker trunks provided ready access to wide planks. while almost all types of wood can be milled this way, the thinner, younger trees we see today do not lend as well to this type of flooring, making wide plank flooring less common.
reSAWN provides a wide plank option in almost all of our flooring designs. Most of our designs are available up to 8″ wide with some available up to 10″ wide – please contact us to inquire about a specific design. these wider cut boards reveal even more of the wood’s natural beauty as the uninterrupted grains and patterns flow seamlessly through the plank.

RECLAIMED BEAMS from reSAWN TIMBER co.
rough sawn and hand-hewn reclaimed oak and pine beams serve not only as unique feature pieces, but also come with a rich and varied history. this aged wood is ideal for the creation of rustic mantles, shelving, structural posts, and trusses.
reSAWN provides beautiful, reclaimed barn beams in the raw – including original hand-hewn pieces. hand-hewing is the process of transforming a tree trunk into a squared up beam. traditionally the broad-axe was used for scoring and for hewing larger pieces of lumber.
Reclaimed beams go thru the typical reclaimation process of denailed and power washing. no finish is needed for this wood since it has been naturally oxidized over the years to produce a tough, weather resistant “skin”. common character marks include circle sawn kerf, mineral staining, color changes, weathering, checking, nail holes, knots, notched out pockets and heavy patina. thicknesses tend to vary slightly.

FLOORING and INTERIOR WALL/CEILING CLADDING
BARK SIDE features a compilation of six nature-inspired designs in colors ranging from a crisp, snowy white to a dark, dusky gray. the name of the collection and the textured surface of the material was inspired by the horizontal ridges, known as lenticels, that are seen on the bark of species such as birch and black cherry.
the BARK SIDE designs are sustainably sourced, original cut white oak with a textured surface and are prefinished with our hardwax oil. the original cut incorporates plain sawn, rift sawn and quarter sawn grain patterns and all grades and character marks into the final product. in each design you will find common character marks including knots, checks, streaks and worm holes. our hardwax oil is natural, non-toxic and 100% VOC-free, and produces a durable, matte finish that respects the natural look and feel of the wood.
