Shou-sugi-ban (Burnt Wood Siding)

A Japanese style burnt wood siding (shou-sugi-ban). This technique adds beauty and longevity to wood siding. Traditionally, cedar was burnt in Japan to increase the wood's resistance to insects and fire. Delta Lumber & Millworks has modernized this technique and experimented with other species of wood, creating beautiful and one-of-a-kind appearances that have not been found in traditional wood products. Using species such as cypress and yellow pine, we use our burning technique to produce amazing siding, paneling, and flooring products.
Burnt Yellow Pine siding with a lightly-burned Douglas Fir faux-beam. The shou-sugi-ban technique accentuates the grain on both species of wood and makes for a truly unique finish.

The wood really changes color with different angles of light hitting it. The grain is really red in these photos and the grain stands out in a great way...
