Visual Palette

This presentation and guide set explores the characteristics that influence timber's visual appeal, such as species, grain, feature and texture.

Timber is used in appearance applications because it holds an innate attraction for designers and users alike. Reflecting the growth of the original tree, timber brings an unmistakeable individuality to either a space or an artefact, such as a chair or table. The link to nature inspires a basic response that the designer can recognise and use.

This presentation and guide includes:

+ colour range and matching

+ grain, texture and figure

+ feature
