7 Magnificent ideas for wooden makeovers!

In this photo, we can see the elegant roof of the terrace supported on solid wooden beams. The usage of forms of top quality timber like the ancient recovered wood or wooden laminates makes it convenient for the architects to accomplish the construction of a variety of wooden structures in different shapes & sizes, viz., pergola, shelf, the intricate spider web ceiling or caisson complex and so on.

The pergola, a structural and decorative element, can totally alter the character of a space. Usually a garden feature, it could offer a comfortable retiring space, as in this photo. It could be adorned by hanging plants, or left bare just with the warm personality of wood gracing it as décor. In this photo, the pergola is dominated by the humble elegance of wood and solid decorative pieces on the sides as well as on the center table. This pergola bears the basal essence of simplicity.

Pergolas can be covered with a number of different materials like wood,  natural heather, tile, African cane or even glass.

Here we can see an innovative porch designed by combining wood and glass, forming a closed space with glass doors and glass walls on 3 sides.  This porch idea perfectly blends the texture, personality, warmth and scent of wood with the neat transparency of the glass to create a cozy outdoor lounging area that quite naturally connects the outside space with interiors of the home. 

This design allows for a living space replete with acoustic and thermal insulation qualities. The space could be so designed to house a comfortable and personalized setting for lounging as well as dining, as shown in this image- an absolutely snug living space that is outdoors yet very much connected to the interior space, with sober furnishings and minimalistic décor to exude that homely mellowness.
