Why use wood in interior spaces?
Warm and welcoming to live with, wood is one of the few naturally renewable interior products that calm our minds, please our senses and connect us with nature. Interior applications contribute to indoor air quality, offer aesthetic beauty and provide health benefits, according to a growing body of research.
