Natural oak
Distinctive grain and a warm tone. Natural variations in colour give each piece its character. Look at a sample in the light of the room where it will be used.
Materials
What you see.
And what you feel.
Colour is only the beginning. Texture, light and the way a material changes with time all shape the character of a room.
Travertine
A quiet backdrop or a striking focal point. The type of stone and its finish affect both its appearance and its care. Not every stone suits every use.
Linen
Natural texture softens the geometry of wood. Fabrics are considered alongside the light, other materials and the way a room will be used.

First, the sample.
Then, the decision.
The same oak looks different beside a north-facing window and in warm evening light. Placing a wood sample beside stone and fabric helps you see the whole before the furniture is made.
For an actual commission, cleaning and care would need to suit the specific material and finish. It is worth discussing this before choosing, rather than after installation.
