Wood Products - A Kaleidoscope of Creative Ideas

It is difficult to overestimate wood as a material for the manufacture of furniture and interior items, especially in our country. For all those who have already tried their hand in the manufacture of wooden furniture or are just taking their first steps in this difficult but incredibly interesting business, we offer the following interesting options. They can be the starting point for creating your individual design. The advantage of manufacturing wooden furniture items is not only that you can find a fairly pliable species of wood and realize your design dreams, but also that the finished product will fit into almost any interior. Wood is in perfect harmony with metal, and with glass, mirrors and glossy surfaces.

Not only as part of the modern interior, but also as garden furniture, wood products are very popular. It is only important to protect the wood surface from moisture - paint or varnish, impregnate with an antiseptic, increase not only the life of the furniture, but also increase personal comfort and safety.

Convenient, practical, stable and at the same time mobile - stools that can be assembled like a paper constructor. They fit perfectly into the modern style of decoration.

Wood products are not so much color and texture as shape. Indeed, many types of wood are quite malleable, they can be given a completely original shape. But in the pursuit of originality, do not forget all the same about the main purpose of your future masterpiece - the possibility of a comfortable location for relaxing, eating or working.

In some cases, there is no need to make a chair, which is called from scratch, it is enough to restore the old piece of furniture, give it the look that will most harmoniously fit into the interior of the room.

Some interesting ideas for reading enthusiasts. A chair or chair and a storage system for books - two in one. Convenient, practical, original.

What about a portable folding chair, which, if unnecessary, can simply be attached to a wall or even hung on it? Of course, such a mobile piece of furniture has weight restrictions, but for a person of average build, such a design would be more than appropriate.

We combine materials to create original and durable furniture

The combination of materials with different technical characteristics within the framework of the manufacture of one piece of furniture allows to improve its properties of strength, wear resistance and durability. You can combine wood, metal, plastic, leather, various types of rubber.

Most often, in the manufacture of handmade chairs, wood and metal are combined. Such an alliance helps to obtain the most durable and durable structures. At the same time, parts of the future chair can be made by you or be parts of other interior items that you no longer need.

It is logical to combine wood with soft materials that increase the level of comfort of the chair, turning it almost into a chair. And it's not just about pillows for seats or backs, but also quite exotic options - rubber, weaving from threads, animal skin or its imitation, artificial materials.

Chairs with a metal frame are strong and stable, durable and able to take high loads. But there are drawbacks to such furniture - the seat is too cold (if it is also made of metal). Use linings made of foam rubber, synthetic winterizer and other synthetic materials that can be machine washed. Or at least use removable fabric covers for backs and seats.
