Daisugi Technique
For 700 years, the Japanese have been producing wood without cutting down trees. In the 14th century, the extraordinary daisugi technique was developed in Japan. The daisugi method ensures that these trees are planted for future generations and not cut down....but pruned as if they were giant bonsai trees.
By applying this technique to cedars, the wood obtained is uniform, straight, and knot-free, almost perfect for construction.
A pruning as an art form that allows the tree to grow and germinate while using its wood, without ever cutting it down. An extraordinary technique.
