ARDES, FROM THE LATIN BURN, IS INSPIRED BY SHOU SUGI BAN BUT REVOLUTIONISES THE PRODUCT WITH ITALIAN DESIGN AND TECHNOLOGY
The ARDES collection innovates a very ancient technique originating in Japan, and with 100% Italian technology and design overcomes the application limitation of a product only black and only for exteriors.
With ARDES, we offer a line of carbonised and subsequently treated wood products that can also be used indoors, offering a range of colours from metallic to natural. ARDES is divided into two product families, DRY and FLAME, both with surface burning treatment.
The DRY family, in which carbonization is very much present, the stave has a texture similar to arid earth, or a crocodile skin, making the wooden raw material almost unrecognisable. The colours in this range are varied, from gold to blue, from platinum to white, allowing application indoors without any limits.
The FLAME family presents in its entirety the wood identity more emphasised by the grain which, thanks to the burn, is enhanced and brought to the fore, here the colours are more natural and in harmony with an earthy palette.
The ARDES collection is ancient wisdom combined with Italian design, for a product that is revolutionising the world of Shou Sugi Ban.
