ABOUT THE PROJECT

This private residence is located in the mountains of Asheville, NC. Built into the densely forested mountainside, the home combines timeless building materials and a modern structural design. reSAWN's IRUKA shou sugi ban charred cypress exterior siding and rustic stone columns are major features that contribute to the overall design concept.

From reSAWN's CHARRED NEUTRAL collection, IRUKA features a compelling mix of browns and differing wood grain widths. The color scheme of this shou sugi ban product completes the naturalist design aesthetic that is so prominent in the Asheville architecture scene. Carlton-Edwards DesignBuild specified IRUKA as a sleek feature to accent the rustic nature of the home.

ABOUT THE PROJECT

Pizza (216), 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 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., 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. A select grade of cypress was used to ensure a high-quality look and durable functionality.
