About:
Japanese charred timber cladding, or shou sugi ban or yakisugi, is a traditional wood preservation technique from Japan. This method involves charring the surface of timber, typically cedar, using fire, which enhances its durability and resistance to insects, weather, and decay. The process creates a striking blackened surface with a textured, carbonized finish that exudes natural and rustic elegance.
