Breton house on the Emerald Coast

Breton house on the Emerald Coast

A few kilometres from the sea, on the Emerald Coast, this house was enlarged thanks to an extension that radically changed its volume and connection to the outside world.

Breton architect Laurène Baratte opted for a contemporary design compared to the regional architecture. 

She designed a building with the same height as the original house. In terms of materials, the architect chose a wooden frame, facades and a roof made of our charred wood Marugame as ideal solutions in this maritime region.

“We recently replaced the potted decked timber on our farmhouse in the Beemster region with Shodoshima semi-gloss from Zwarthout l Shou Sugi Ban. With special planks 25 cm wide, it looks great on a farmhouse. A very beautiful product and great service from Zwarthout l Shou Sugi Ban!”

”We chose Yoroi for several reasons. First of all, we like the Japanese classical technique used for burning the bamboo. Due to the burning technique Shou Sugi Ban, Yoroi has a fire class B and is maintenance-free. Finally, the black charred bamboo is a regrowable material and aesthetically matches our design perfectly.”

We have put together two Zwarthout | Shou Sugi Ban sample boxes: one for interior design applications and one for façade cladding.

That way, you can experience the attention, care and love we pour into each piece of wood yourself. And, of course, the beauty and exclusive looks the various textures have to offer.
