Shou Sugi Ban Workshop Originating in Japan in the 1600s, shou sugi ban is an ancient Japanese technique for waterproofing and preserving wood. Traditionally, three planks were wired together to form a triangular tube and placed over a small fire. Once the surface was significantly charred, the planks were removed, extinguished, scrubbed clean, and then sealed with an oil. This method is sustainable and safe as it does not employ the use of chemicals to finish timber. Recently, shou sugi ban has increased in popularity among architects and designers for both its aesthetics and its green nature. HEC 4269 $79 | mandatory fee: $20
