Wood for Your Living & Dining

Wood provides a timeless and sophisticated look to any home. It can evoke a feeling of comfort, and coziness and introduce natural yet practical elements into your décor. Compared to plastics and metals, wood provides a warm feeling to homes and can be incorporated in several ways.
There are many advantages to incorporating timber into construction, especially since it can be included in almost any stage, from foundational uses to interior finishing. Timber is a natural, organic, and renewable construction material which means it is non-toxic. It also possesses high tensile strength owing to its flexibility which supplies wood products with a long life.
Different woods have different features that will make them uniquely suited to your purposes and environments. However, modern treatments have made most woods extremely versatile and hassle-free to integrate into your living and dining spaces. Here at Ebony Woods, we provide some of the best timber wood products in Karachi, available in a wide variety of textures, colors, and grains. We provide ethically sourced wood from sustainable forests in Pakistan including teak, deodar, partial, and pine among others.
Ceiling & Beams
Exposed wooden beams are a strategic design approach that helps introduce rustic and traditional styles into homes. Wooden ceilings can also provide a vacation home or a cozy cabin feel. These can be stained to any color, polished, or left in their natural finish to highlight the structure and beauty of the wood. Wooden beams can be paired with a wooden ceiling or contrasted with a painted roof. Ceiling and beam wooden accents can fit well into both traditional and modern styles. To avoid issues with moisture and humidity, treated laminates can also be utilized to achieve the right look without foregoing the practicality of synthetic materials.
Cabinets
The convenience of wood is due to its versatility in design and form. One of the greatest varieties in woodwork is evident in handcrafted wooden cabinets and cupboards that have long been a fixture in Pakistani interior décor. Trends are now reverting to utilizing natural and renewable materials in home fixtures which is why wooden cabinets have risen in popularity. Wooden cupboards and cabinets also serve as a statement piece in interior design by adding a pop of personality to your living spaces. They can be used in traditional settings or for a fusion of western and eastern design without being out of place. You can opt for classic European, traditional Pakistani, or contemporary Scandinavian themes all while utilizing this flexible material.
It is also easy to introduce multiple tones and colors into your living and dining spaces by using two-toned or painted cabinets that can easily be repainted and refurbished for a new look in later years. Vintage enthusiasts will note that due to its durability, wooden furniture that was master crafted can survive decades, unlike synthetic materials that degrade beyond repair. Wood is easily refurbished allowing us to maintain the history and craftmanship while giving a new lease on life to these pieces.
Floors
Wood paneled or parquet floors bring another opportunity to inject some understated elements of design utilizing wood in your living and dining spaces. They are timeless additions to any home due to the wide variety in colors and finishes. Parquet floors can be made unique with fishbone or herringbone panels.
Countertops
Wooden countertops are a great option to pair with wooden cabinets or any other material like stone, marble, or metal. Whether industrial or modern farmhouse, it fits comfortably into any aesthetic for a timeless, sophisticated look. A trend that was popularized recently is resin-inlaid wooden countertops that utilize colorful resin inserts in between natural wood which emphasizes the structure and grain of the wood.
Shelves
In recent years, open shelving and floating shelving have been popularized which works the best with wooden shelves. It allows an open and spacious feel to dining spaces and presents a great opportunity to show off your personal style with decorative knick-knacks. Wooden open shelves also add convenience to living spaces as they allow for easy access to dishes or items in everyday use. Metal, acrylic, or plastic shelves fail to provide the classic and chic look that wood offers.
Walls
Wooden walls or wainscoting can add a layer of design to simple spaces through easy and changeable installations. They also allow the addition of color to rooms without being overwhelming or overbearing.
