Modern Design Inspiration: Black Houses

Shou Sugi Ban

As with many of these Modern Design Inspiration posts in which I focus on a project we are designing and share some of our inspiration images, today’s focus is Black Houses… but this time I get to tell you that we are building this house and the video I’m sharing is even more exciting. With this house, we have the opportunity to be on site “getting our hands dirty” by applying the actual technique for creating the materials we’re using… and that is really inspiring!

As you would expect, we will certainly be sharing many more Shou Sugi Ban experiences with you in future posts. My favorite comment from a twitter friend over the weekend was “Neat things happen in your office!” – Yes, I’m thrilled to say they do…and we love to share!

Until then….
