TIMBER
There is nothing quite like solid wood: reflecting
the life of the tree, every plank has an indi-
vidual beauty granted by its unique colours and
grain patterns; it allows for the use of joinery
as handsome as it is secure; it has a natural
tacility and familiarity that connect to us in
a true way; and it allows for the use of finishes
that invite you to get involved in its care.
We exclusively use timber from sustainable farms.
This not only makes environmental sense, the
trees methodically replanted, but aesthetic sense
as well: the regular pruning that occurs on these
farms creates the highest quality planks with
greater strength and fewer knots. Our finishes
are carefully chosen to embrace and enhance the
characteristics of the material, while offering a
broad range of aesthetic possibilities.
Our oil finishes reveal the inherent colour and
grain variations in the timber, whilst providing
a renewable surface for enduring beauty.
Our stains are sealed with a clear matte lac-
quer to maintain the colour whilst preserving the
silky touch.
Our painted timber is wire brushed before the
application of the paint, creating a textured
surface.
Our oxidised timber employs an oxidising solution
that reacts with the tannin in the wood, creating
a beautiful patina. This is followed by a clear,
matte lacquer.
