No two boards are alike. That is precisely where the strength of reclaimed wood lies. Barnwood and other old boards instantly bring texture, warmth and a lived-in atmosphere to an interior. They give a wall not only character, but also a story.
Reclaimed wood has already lived a life, and you can see it. Years of exposure to wind and weather create distinctive tones, weathered details and unique markings that cannot be reproduced. That is exactly why it comes into its own so beautifully indoors.
Our reclaimed wood is dry to air-dry and generally has a moisture content of between 12 and 20%. For a beautiful and stable end result, we recommend installing the boards vertically and letting the wood acclimatise for at least one week before fitting.
Looking for the character of reclaimed wood, but in a more controlled and contemporary interpretation? Then the United Colours of Carpentier collection is a strong alternative. This exclusive range in rough oak with an aged look was created in collaboration with a leading designer and comprises five characterful colours: space blue, coral red, oil blue, forest green and desert yellow.
These weathered tones feel perfectly at home in a rural interior, but come into their own just as well in a modern, bold setting.
