Purpose : This study aims to give insights regarding Shou Sugi Ban to a degree that becomes
known to more people.
Research methods : Applies a literature study method that works by analyzing the data collected.
The source of the data is mostly taken from journals, research articles, books, and online websites.
Findings : Shou Sugi Ban is a Japanese technique of finishing wood by charring the surface with
fire. This technique is environmentally friendly because it naturally makes the wood impossible to
absorb moisture so that the wood can be protected from termites and mold. Generally, there are five
steps to a perfect Shou Sugi Ban: (1) materials preparation, (2) burn process, (3) surface prep or
sanding, (4) stain process, (5) finish process. In architecture, this wood finishing is appropriate for
exterior and interior.
Implications : The information provided is to be able to add insight and knowledge about one of the
natural finishing techniques that still looks beautiful but is environmentally friendly. So later, the
advantages of finishing Shou Sugi Ban can be more widely known and utilized in the development of
architecture.
