Spacious open floor plans are trending, but can feel impersonal without the right design. Wood balances functionality with aesthetics. At Berkeley Mills, we craft custom wood solutions that elevate your interiors. Let’s see how wood makes open spaces shine.

1. Structuring Open Areas with Wood

Organized open spaces feel balanced, but benefit from intentional partitions. Wood adds style and function to zoning.

  • Slatted Partitions: Natural wood partitions delineate areas without loss of openness.
  • Flooring Transitions: Use contrasting textures to signal functional changes.
  • Fixed Design Features: Custom wood pieces ground and organize spaces.

2. Bringing Nature Inside

Natural wood adds a warm, inviting feel. Opting for designs that celebrate nature amplify its character.

  • Structural Wood Elements: Reveal structural wood to emphasize height.
  • Raw-Edge Designs: Unprocessed edges add artistic flair.
  • Textured Wall Features: Vertical wood installations enhance aesthetic appeal.

3. Wood as a Warm Design Element

Spacious interiors can feel empty, but wooden elements add coziness.

  • Wooden Lights: Wood-based lighting fixtures make the space feel cozier.
  • Tailored Wood Creations: Artisanal furniture pieces complement interiors.
  • Natural Décor Pieces: Decorative wood carvings add thoughtful detail.

4. Balancing Modern and Traditional Styles

Versatility defines wood’s appeal, suiting both sleek modern layouts.

  • Sleek Wood Designs: Smooth surfaces amplify simplicity.
  • Ornate Wooden Details: Richly stained wood nod to heritage.
  • Eclectic Wood Combinations: Experiment with mixed elements to balance styles.
