Wood Accent Walls In Two Styles Bring Warmth To The Interior Of This Home

Chan Architecture has recently completed a house in Melbourne, Australia, with an open light-filled interior with wood featured in two ways.

The first wall is made from a curved timber wall that wraps from the entryway and around to the dining room.

Let’s take a look at the rest of the home…

The exterior features metal cladding with a white finish, black window frames, dark wood accents, and drystone stacked walls.

A large front door with dark vertical wood welcomes visitors to the home, with the stone wall continuing through the interior. A wall of floor-to-ceiling white cabinets provides plenty of storage, while a bench creates a place to take shoes off.

The entryway opens up to the open-plan interior, including the living room, home office, dining room, kitchen, and polished concrete floor.

There are two types of tiles in the bathroom that cover the walls in the shower, with a white tile in a chevron pattern, and a small gray tile laid in a vertical pattern.
