Design trend of covering the wooden walls. Sustainability, spaces that invite peace, home as a refuge … are all concepts that have more than assumed as needs in contemporary new interiors. But how to go down to the ground – or rather to our house -? How to materialize them? The most obvious and effective way is surrounding us with those materials that come from Earth. Plants, fibers such as linen or cotton, ceramics, cork, stone.
But if there is a material that really transports us to forests and is synonymous with calm and warmth is wood. Therefore, we are not surprised that the projects in which it is undoubtedly the main protagonist now abounds.

Wood as a lifestyle
“I think that, as a decorative element, wood has never stopped using. What happens is that before I only had that decorative character and now there is a more global strategy, a manifesto of a more sustainable form of architecture, back to nature. In addition, the rise of wood as a construction material helps everything to have a coherence, ”explain Gallego Archabe.
Thus, in this Design trendthe wood transfers the barrier of furniture and floors and is applied to walls, roofs, corridors and stairs, in a more comprehensive way, creating surround spaces of nature, in the style of a resonance box of a musical instrument. Do you remind us of the 70s? Only from afar. Aesthetics is another: more refined and Minimalistwith less bright and red finishes, in favor of more neutral tones that serve as a primary base from which to build the rest of the whole.
