Transform your outdoor space with shou sugi ban charred decking

Looking for a unique architectural solution that combines durability with style for your terrace? Our charred decking boards offer the perfect solution. At Atelier TwentyOne, we use a proprietary wood carbonization process, inspired by the traditional Japanese shou sugi ban technique, to create decking that is both durable and easy to maintain. This stunning and practical solution is ideal for any climate and environment.

Charred decking is known for its high durability, resistance to rot, moisture, pests, mold, fungi, fire, and water. Not only does it provide excellent protection against external elements, but the burning process also enhances the wood’s natural beauty and adds a unique character to your space.

What types of wood do we use for terrace board?

Atelier TwentyOne offers a wide selection of woods to ensure you achieve your desired aesthetic result.

Siberian Larch

Siberian larches are hardy trees that grow in extreme environments and stand up to the elements. Their forests extend from Siberia to Finland. It is one of the hardest softwoods on Earth.

The larch colours can range from a creamy yellow to light brown, which weathers to a beautiful silvery-grey if left untreated. With a charred wood application, you can further enhance the natural beauty of this knotty wood and choose from a range of beautiful finishes.

Larch is a robust wood, naturally resistant to severe weather which makes it a durable option for outside cladding, siding, fencing, and decking. This durability is increased by the charred wood process that makes larch fire, rot, insect, and mold resistant.

Douglas Fir

Douglas fir originates from North America. Also called Oregon Pine, this conifer is a very well-known and high-quality softwood.

It is cost effective, easy to work with, and looks great. Douglas fir is distinguished by its reddish-brown heartwood, cream-colored sapwood, and darker-colored growth rings. When the Shou Sugi Ban process is applied, its cracked texture on the surface gives character and a dramatic grain.

When charred and brushed, Douglas fir is characterised by long, wide, and pronounced wood grain, which contributes to its premium appearance. Over time, the Douglas fir develops a magnificent patina. Its resistance to bad weather, mold and fungus makes it an ideal material for outdoor use like siding, fencing, decking, and cladding.

Accoya

Accoya is a high-performance and sustainable wood that lasts the test of time. Grown from the pine radiata wood species, Accoya has the distinction of being resistant and durable, even more so than tropical species such as teak or merbau.

It is harvested at around 30 years and is put through a modification process that makes it more durable. This process contains no toxic substances and instead enhances natural elements of the wood. This modification makes the wood extremely durable, in fact Accoya wood is one of the few woods to have a class 1 durability rating.Accoya wood is resistant to fungus, insects, and mold, and is very stable meaning it won’t warp and rot over time.

When layered on with our Shou Sugi Ban process, the Accoya becomes even more durable to the environment making it perfect for cladding, decking, and furniture.The burnt wood process also enhances the beauty of the Accoya wood, bringing out its rich colours. You will also be able to choose the finish that suits you best: charred, brushed and oiled or deep charred and oiled.
