Wooden Houses places the wooden house into a historical, social and
decorative context, explores the decorative potential of wood in
our homes and provides inspiration for anyone who appreciates the
beauty and soul of this wonderful natural material. Wooden houses
range from rustic log cabins and timbered country cottages to
traditional alpine chalets and elegant clapboard houses with shaded
verandas. Wood has always played an invaluable part in
construction, architecture and interior decoration and has long
been valued for its practical benefits. Indoors, wood surrounds us
in so many different ways. Structural elements such as beams and
vaulted ceilings become features in their own right. Wood can be
used as further embellishment in the form of beautiful panelling or
carved and turned banisters and staircases, and in original
furniture designs. Whether it is left in its natural state to show
the variety of grains and depths of colours, or used as a bare
canvas for paint techniques, wood is a beautiful and timeless
resource.
