Warm and Cozy Wood Inspiration........

Reclaimed wood and wood in general is always very popular when it comes to furniture design and interiors. The innovations out there now are wonderful and owning a piece of any of these is well worth the spending!

I've pulled together some images here that suggest a rustic, natural taste. Nothing feels more homey and comfortable than wood.



This beauty was designed by surfer turned Brazilian designer, Carlos Motta. Available....where else....? California!

Walnut lends itself to a more sophisticated palette. This beautifully crafted dining table is by Hudson Furniture based out of NYC.

One can purchase this rustic piece from designers like yours truly. Made of Mango wood and iron this side table on wheels would be comfortable in almost any home. And there's more in this line - coffee table, console table, book case...

now, if darker or older woods aren't your taste, Oly furniture designs are gorgeous in white.

Light from a wood lamp is always subtle like candle light - so romantic.

This lovely bench is called Saddle by our own Brent Comber, whose work can be seen all over the world. You can see some of his pieces featured in several of our own city's restaurants, retail stores and galleries. Check out his site! www.brentcomber.com

 Artfully carved tree roots to expose bowls!!

Looking like a topographical map this earth bowl by Fluid is made of plywood!! So clever.

To tie up my rustic and wood inspiration brief I think there can't be a drink that suggests rustic moreso than beer. I leave you with this image. From dark to light, beer has as many colours and shapes as wood!! Imbibe!
