We have talked about ceramics, colors, textures, children’s rooms and many other topics, but never about wood. We recently realized that although we love it and keep recommending it to our clients, we have not shared with you where these thoughts and feelings really come from. For a few enjoyable minutes of reading, let’s explore solid wood furniture, which is impressive, full of character, and truly remarkable.
We would like to start by telling you that every time we step into a workshop, we connect with wood. It is that genuine connection you can have with a material, because wood, more than anything, speaks to you. And this empathetic relationship between people and wood extends into interiors, especially when architects design projects with this connection in mind. Moreover, along with these, let’s not forget how important custom-made furniture is. There are intelligently-thought spaces, chromatics, storage systems, combinations between all the elements and, of course, the owners’ imprint.
There are many homes that are reminiscent of interwar style through the architecture specific to the period. The owners wish to preserve the charm of that era, where the restored solid wood parquet and the furniture continue the story. This is all for the simple reason that some things are simply made to stay together.

We admit that we love kitchens with retro notes in which we also find contemporary elements. The results are, in most cases, exemplary. It is important to think about custom-made furniture, especially in kitchens, since this is the place where we always need functionality, we need to listen to the needs of our clients. Using wood in a kitchen, aesthetically speaking, is an excellent choice, as it conveys more than any other material. Details, ornaments and other personalized elements always add uniqueness to the decor, influencing people’s feelings.

This kitchen is the best example of classic style furniture, with modern details through the metro style ceramic tile wall, which has been extremely popular in interior design projects in recent years. It is a type of furniture that takes us to Italy or France, where the emphasis is on this retro style, on light, on quality, on the unique details brought by the owners in the design.
Solid wood can sometimes be overwhelming. But only if the furniture is chosen incorrectly compared to the rest of the elements in a room. White will always create the impression of a large space, even in small rooms. And here, we already know that nothing matters more than details. Don’t be afraid to choose retro even when the space’s dimensions limit your furniture range of options, because the French style will bring an extra touch of beauty to even the smallest rooms.
We didn’t choose this solid wood bedroom with blue upholstery by chance. It includes classic Parisian motifs and conveys comfort in a precious decor.
A very good example would be this custom-made furniture, which is white and includes classic-style upholstery, made by Elvila paying attention to even the smallest details, which always make a difference.
You may not believe us, but we really love modern classic furniture, retro interiors, upholstery that takes us back to 1950s Paris, vintage wallpaper. Since all of these are, more than anything else, proof of a connection with the past that we respect and love, we can’t ignore it, inspiring a lot from it.

We had the idea to write an article about solid wood furniture after we visited the Elvila showroom last week. It is very famous, especially, for the production of high-quality furniture for almost 30 years.
