For our latest Dezeen lookbook we've collected 10 bedrooms from homes across the world, from a cabin in Finland to an apartment complex in Thailand, that all feature wood panelling.

Warm, polished wood panels add an organic feel to the starkest of interiors. In bedrooms, it can create a cosy, comforting vibe, and is also sturdier and more practical than wallpaper.

The wood used in these lookbooks ranges from dark oak creating a mid-century modern feel to lighter wooden panels that nod to Nordic interiors.

This is the latest roundup in our Dezeen Lookbooks series that provides visual inspiration for designers and design enthusiasts. Previous lookbooks include homes with exposed concrete, purple interiors and living rooms with statement rugs.

SRG House, Australia, by Fox Johnston

When local studio Fox Johnston renovated this modernist home in Sydney, it aimed to create a design interweaving the old and the new.

In the bedroom, dark wooden panels nod to mid-century modern interiors but a concrete ceiling and pale pastel-coloured textiles keep the space looking up to date. An abstract artwork and a slender black bedside lamp complete the interior.

Moore House, US, by Woods + Dangaran

This mid-century residence in Los Angeles features large windows that open up to California's verdant climate. In the bedroom, the nature outside the windows is echoed inside through the use of green plants and teak finishes.

A classic rice lamp by Isamu Noguchi and a comfortable Eames lounge chair in black leather and wood match the wood panelling, which has black borders for a graphic feel.

Hotel Madame Rêve, France, by Laurent Taïeb

A former post office near the Louvre museum in Paris was turned into a luxury hotel by hotelier Laurent Taïeb. Inspired by the motto "life must be golden", the colour scheme features rich, saturated hues of gold, tan and brown.

In the bedrooms, angled walnut wood panelling adds interesting patterns to the walls and matches the pale golden colours of the bed's headboard and throw.

Niliaitta, Finland, by Studio Puisto

This black-painted cabin is raised on a single pillar in a Finnish national park. Inside, light wooden panels line almost every surface in a design that was intended to focus the eye on the views of the surrounding forest.

"The landscape that opens from this window intentionally dominates the rest, as the interior is done purposefully so that it would only serve as a neutral, blank canvas second to the nature outside," explained the studio.

Island Rest, UK, by Ström Architects

Beams of blackened larch wood clad the exterior of the Island Rest holiday home on England's Isle of Wight. The wooden theme continues inside, where light panelling was used for both the floor and the walls of the bedroom.

A shiny golden bedside lamp, a knitted bed throw and an animal hide-rug add tactile interest and a more rustic feel to the smooth wooden interior.

Balcones Residence, US, by Clayton & Little

US studio Clayton & Little gave the 1950s Balcones Residence a meticulous renovation that kept its original brickwork and warm mahogany panelling.

Gleaming dark wood creates a snug feel in the bedroom, where it is complemented by a dark cork floor. Matching bedside tables and a Nelson Pear Wall Sconce by designer George Nelson make the space feel a little like a luxurious hotel room.

House P, China, by MDDM Studio

The interior of House P in China is drenched in bright yellow hues, but the bedroom has been kept in more natural tones. The built-in bed nook is lined with ash wood to create a different atmosphere.

"As the house is playing with a very simple colour scheme, we wanted to give the master bedroom a more articulated and warm atmosphere," designer Momo Andrea Destro told Dezeen.

Its interiors continue the natural theme, with wood panel-lined bedrooms adjacent to terraced spaces. The dark wood contrasts against white walls, while green plants underline the organic feel.
