Revisiting the past
With recycled native timber you can establish a sense of tradition and character in your home
Whether used inside or out as flooring, beams, or other detailing recycled timber brings a depth of colour and interesting characteristics to the home.
Kauri Warehouse specialises in recycled native and hard-to-find exotic timbers, says Andrew Davy, the company's managing director.
"Recycled timber possesses a wealth of markings and veins, so when you use it in your home, you can create an atmosphere of warmth and tradition," he says.
The house shown above features heavy hardwood columns and beams which establish a sense of permanence. Hardwood beams can also add rustic character to a garden, pergola or interior.
The smaller image, which depicts a house designed by Masonry Design Solutions and built by Nautica Homes, shows the deep golden tones and lustre a recycled hardwood floor can provide.
Kauri Warehouse has many years' experience working with timber and consulting with builders, architects, specifiers and building managers. Through its sister company, Auckland Timber Floors, it offers a complete installation and finishing service for all its flooring products.
