Field notes

Founded in 1954, the Tokushima company makes cedar-board formwork that transfers wood grain to exposed concrete. The homepage distinguishes three finishes—焼浮造り, described as deeply charred, 浮造り, and flat—and lists projects in Tokyo, London, and Osaka. It offers cut samples and consultations for trial pours, allowing designers and contractors to assess the surface before specifying it.
