On the surface, it seems to be sound logic to think that more wood products equal more environmental harm, but wood is a living material that maintains the carbon dioxide it absorbed into its trunk as a tree throughout its product lifecycle as a building material. 13 Sep ##### ABOUT THE PROJECT [![pizza-216_barfeatured](https://connect.resawntimberco.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/Pizza-216_Barfeatured-3-5.jpg?width=1500&height=1000&name=Pizza-216_Barfeatured-3-5.jpg)Pizza (216)](http://resawntimberco.com/project/pizza216-shou-sugi-ban/), a New York style, brick oven pizzeria, is located in Cleveland, OH. With an interior motif that sets a maroon color scheme against dark, brown seating, the dining room and bar are cohesively finished with reSAWN’s [KURO shou sugi ban](http://resawntimberco.com/product/kuro-shou-sugi-ban/) charred cypress wall cladding that accentuates the restaurant’s natural aesthetic. This material was specified by local and national award-winning, [Robert Maschke Architects Inc.](http://www.robertmaschke.com/), known for innovative design techniques that create “…complex spatial effects with modest means.”  Materials were specified with a 5-1/8″ wide face and tongue & groove milling.
