5 Reasons To Use Wood When Refreshing The Look Of Your Home

Natural wood or even wood veneer has been a staple in interior design for a number of years now and is showing no signs of slowing down. With feature walls as well as a wide array of wooden furniture and furnishings, you can create the perfect space with a modern twist. In this article, we will be looking into how you can incorporate the use of wood in your home. 

Timeless Design 

One of the main reasons for using wood in your home is the timeless, classic look it can give to any room. Whether it is a Bamboo Front for your kitchen cabinets or a Pax Wardrobe for the spare bedroom, you can create a welcoming space that can be added to and changed easily without the need for brand new furniture every time. In addition to this, the nature of the light wood creates space in the room allowing you to create the illusion of a much larger room. 

It’s Versatile 

In addition to the timeless design that it offers, it is also highly versatile. Whether you keep it as natural as possible by sanding and applying varnish or you decide to paint the surface to match the rest of the décor, the choice is completely up to you. When choosing the sideboards for my hallway, I chose a Besta Elegance Sideboard in a matte finish. The grey colouring of the sideboard flawlessly complimented the other furniture in the hallway as well as the colour of the paint, creating a space that perfectly complimented the rest of the house.

Can be Painted Or Varnished 

If you have a specific colour theme in your home, the doors can also be painted or varnished in order to accommodate this. Whether you decide to have them painted beforehand or you opt to do this yourself, you can create a coherent colour theme for your home with very minimal effort. In addition to this, this wood is a great way to lighten the room and create a room that effortlessly compliments natural plants and light walls to make your space more welcoming. 

Creates A Welcoming Space 

If you are looking to add to wooden sideboards, there are also a number of cabinets and coffee tables that can be used to incorporate wood into your overall design. Whether this is dark wood, light wood or even an MDF wooden effect, this can keep your space looking natural. An MDF composite material or even oak wood furniture is the perfect way to brighten the room and create an atmosphere for your family and your guests to enjoy. When creating our living room area we placed a number of Besta classic sideboards as well as natural oak wood cabinets to brighten the room and compliment the cream carpet. This change in colouring really helped to brighten the room and perfectly showcase the modern style that we were looking for.

Adds Texture To The Room 

If you are planning on incorporating wood in a new and exciting way, then using wood panelling on the walls of any room can help you to add texture and create a feature wall that captures your attention the second you walk in. If a feature wall is what you are looking to create, then perfect complement the wood with potted plants or even natural artwork as this will create an elegant nature theme that suits a living room, kitchen or even a hallway or entranceway. 

However, you decide to decorate your home, using wooden furniture in your home is the perfect way to make it feel homely all whilst keeping with a modern theme. For more information on how you can get the perfect wooden furniture for your home, get in touch with our experienced team today!
