How to decorate home with wood: Indian luxury housing was long made of glass, steel and high-gloss floors, which made the houses look big and shiny, but it always lacked an emotion and feeling. It seemed as if this was a hotel and not a home. Now times have changed and so has the generation, now when people buy their new house, they look at many things closely. They don’t just look for beauty, they also want an emotional touch and family connection. For this reason, new developers are again using wood in the interiors of houses and apartments.
Wood is being used because it not only decorates the house, it also gives an emotion to the house. Its texture, fragrance, sound and its color darkening with time, all these together create an environment where luxury is not just seen, it is also lived. This is the change that is quietly but rapidly emerging in new homes being built. These are some of the main reasons why developers are using wood in interiors. In these, handcrafted furniture, solid-wood ceilings, slatted feature walls and timber flooring are being used more. Let us know…

What do experts say?
Expert Raghunandan Saraf believes that people ask us why solid wood is so expensive. We tell them it’s not a purchase, it’s a relationship. Engineered surfaces deteriorate with age and need to be replaced. Good rosewood becomes darker, stronger, and more personal with time. This is the reason why wood is coming back into luxury homes again. People want material that grows with them, not something that is disposable. FortAsia Keshav Mangala says that buyers are no longer influenced by mere glitz. They want to feel warm as soon as they step into the house, wood does just that. It changes sounds, softens spaces, so it is being brought back because luxury today means comfort and emotional value, not just glitz.
