\"Hee<\/div>\n

For our latest lookbook<\/a>, we’ve gathered eight kitchens<\/a> across the globe where natural wood<\/a> panelling and cabinets create a warm, welcoming atmosphere.<\/span><\/p>\n

Whether they’re located in a summerhouse in rural Sweden or in an apartment in central Tokyo, these kitchens were given a natural touch and calm feel through the use of wood panels and wooden details.<\/p>\n

While many of the kitchens are almost entirely made from wood, in other instances the designers matched the material with glossy tiles and pastel colours to create striking contrasts.<\/p>\n

This is the latest in our lookbooks series, which provides visual inspiration from Dezeen’s archive. For more inspiration, see previous lookbooks featuring dining rooms illuminated by voids<\/a>, compact bedrooms<\/a> and statement fireplaces<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Living with Timber, UK, by EBBA Architects<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

EBBA Architects<\/a> founder Benni Allan didn’t skimp on the wood when designing the interior of his own flat in a former tea factory.<\/p>\n

The London apartment<\/a> features walls, floors, furniture and even speakers crafted from Douglas fir, including in the kitchen, where all the appliances are hidden behind slim wooden doors.<\/p>\n

“Timber is adaptable, warm and tactile,” Allan told Dezeen. “The versatility and sense of craft the material brings is something that isn’t appreciated enough.”<\/p>\n

Hiroo Residence, Japan, by Keiji Ashizawa<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Named for its location in Tokyo’s Hiroo neighbourhood, this home has a muted colour palette and was filled with wooden furniture and art pieces by its architect, Keiji Ashizawa<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The open-plan wooden kitchen features a dining chair with a woven seat that the architect created especially for the apartment, and which was inspired by both Shaker designs<\/a> and classic Scandinavian chairs.<\/p>\n

Hee House, Sweden, by Studio Ellsinger<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

This hat-shaped Swedish holiday cabin<\/a>, located on a “rural and wild” plot, has a steeply gabled shape and was made from wood and aluminium<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Inside the open-plan kitchen and living area, the wooden walls were left in their natural colour and matched with spacious built-in shelving. Pastel-blue chairs and a dark-red tiled floor add a touch of colour to the cosy kitchen.<\/p>\n

Lake Como villa, Italy, by Tuckey Design Studio<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

This old villa next to Lake Como in northern Italy<\/a> was turned into a modern home by British practice Tuckey Design Studio<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Inside, the designers chose to use materials found in Lombardy, including green-stained oak timber. This was contrasted against natural wood and chairs in a warm red colour in the bright kitchen.<\/p>\n

Hors\u00f6, Sweden, by Bross and Nick Flygt<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The interior matches the exterior of this holiday home in Sweden<\/a>, which was finished in untreated wood to disrupt its natural surroundings as little as possible.<\/p>\n

“The choice of materials is <\/span>drawn from the local environment, wood, stone and untreated timber, that will age gracefully and last over time,” co-designer Sofia Bross told Dezeen.<\/p>\n

In the kitchen, wooden kitchen cabinets and a dark-grey stone<\/a> splashback were combined, helping to underline the tactile feel of the home.<\/p>\n

\"Wood-panelled<\/p>\n

Surf House, USA, by Feldman Architecture<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The kitchen of the bohemian Surf House in California<\/a> was clad in salvaged Monterey cypress wood, which was also used for the home’s exterior.<\/p>\n

Wood panelling decorates the floor, walls and ceiling in the kitchen, as well as its large central kitchen island<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The use of natural materials was intended to help find “the perfect balance between high design and a casual Californian aesthetic,” the designers said.<\/p>\n
