Dezeen Showroom: from seating with rounded organic shapes to lighting designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, here are 12 furniture designs and interior products made from wood featured on Dezeen Showroom.
Timber has been used to make furniture for thousands of years due to it being versatile, durable and readily available.
As a renewable material with low embodied carbon, wood is a popular sustainable material choice among designers.
It has an appealing natural grain that changes in tone and pattern depending on the species of the tree, and can be left in its natural state or treated with paints and varnishes.
This roundup features furniture made from various types of wood, including Douglas fir, cherry, oak, walnut, beech, maple and acacia wood.
Read on to see the latest furniture designs and products made from wood featured on Dezeen Showroom:
