Designing with Reclaimed Wood

With its wide variety of rich patinas, unique textures, and unadulterated charm, reclaimed wood is an interior design must. Its look can easily be worked into any design style to elevate the beauty of a space. There are three styles, in particular, that heavily rely on salvaged lumber to achieve their desired ambiance: rustic, shabby chic, and traditional.

Rustic

A rustic space captures the essence of the outdoors inside. This style is accomplished by melting together warm, earthy tones and green materials. When trying to achieve this look, use cabin or bungalow spaces as design inspiration.

Our Rustic Home ideabook on Houzz is an excellent resource for you to start with. Here are a few key takeaways from this album:

  • Reclaimed wood is king: incorporating antique lumber in your flooring, furniture, mantelpieces, etc. is the easiest way to bring nature into your space and create an overall stunning aesthetic.
  • Warm colors work best: reds, oranges, golds, siennas – these accent colors instantly add an air of comfort and coziness to a room.
  • Outdoor materials are necessary: implementing outdoor elements like fur and stone into your space will help you maintain a consistency and stay true to your rustic style.

Shabby Chic

To transform your home into a shabby chic haven, your design should center around antique materials and pastel colors. Including these elements will bring history and character to your space.

Our Shabby Chic Home ideabook on Houzz is the perfect place to get major design inspiration. Here are its main takeaways:

  • Barn wood is king: this specific type of reclaimed lumber, which often has remnants of its original details or paint, is known for adding charm to a space. Using it in your cabinets, furniture, accent walls, etc. is key.
  • Pastel colors work best: off whites, sea foam greens, sky blues, pale yellows – these colors will not only brighten up your room but make it feel larger as well.
  • Unaltered materials are necessary: choosing accessories that have delicate or original detailing can contribute to your room’s sense of history.

Traditional

Designing with a traditional style is an excellent approach to accomplishing the classic, comfortable look and feel of a ‘home.’ Rich tones, clean lines, and pops of colors can all help communicate this style to your visitors.

Our Traditional Home ideabook on Houzz depicts our favorite take on this design style. Here are a few items to note when taking a look at it:

  • Wood flooring is king: although there is no specific tone or hue the reclaimed wood in your space should have, using it throughout the entire room via flooring is what truly matters.
  • Neutral colors work best: beiges, whites, browns, greys – these colors matched with a vibrant accent color (we chose orange and blue in our ideabook) can give the entire room a traditional feel.
  • Bold details are necessary: brass fixtures, warm candles, and salvaged lumber barn doors are just a few ways to increase the beauty of your space.
