Yakisugi

Yakisugi, more commonly known as shou sugi ban, is a centuries-old Japanese wood surface treatment technique that involves charring wood surfaces with live fire. This method is designed for purely practical purposes, to prevent wood from rotting, to make it weatherproof and to protect it from pests. In addition to the useful and practical properties of charred wood, this treatment gives it an aesthetic and distinctive appearance. As a result, charred wood is used by architects, interior designers and clients around the world who want to give buildings a natural, dignified and original appearance.
