Wood has long been a central facet of the construction industry. With many grains, colors, and styles available, it is used for everything from walls to paneling to framing to floors. Wood fits the bill for a number of decorating themes, from primitive to modern to farmhouse. Rustic lumber is especially popular in recent years.
Old fashioned lumber may actually be antique, such as from an barn or home that has been dismantled, or it may be designed and weathered to appear aged. This rustic look is an excellent choice for interior and exterior designs. Recently, the popularity of country-style weddings has taken off, and this type of wood is a great building material for event halls or outdoor wedding barns.
Rustic-style lumber’s trendiness is not waning, but growing. This vintage material has many modern applications for the home builder or re-modeler.
