2025 Timber Trends

American Oak Aged
American Oak is an imported hardwood sourced from sustainably managed North American forests. Its striking range of blonde to medium golden brown hues features a wavy grain pattern, complemented by a robust open grain and occasional knots. Unlike the wild variations of Blackbutt, American Oak offers less natural variance, making it an ideal choice for those prioritising a consistent aesthetic when choosing real timber. Our proprietary ‘Ageing Process’ enhances the wood’s character by darkening the grain, resulting in a unique interplay of textures and shades that elevates its natural beauty.

American Oak Smoked
Coming soon…. Our new American Oak Smoked is an exciting addition to our timber range and currently available to The Designer Collective members only. This highly durable North American Timber is downright sexy. The rich colour of the timber is natural. Its deep tones and texture are complimented by a smoky aroma adding to its allure. If you are in love with this timber, give our showroom a call and we can get a sample sent to you.

Spotted Gum
Spotted Gum is a sought-after timber, known for its stunning back-sawn grain, alluring fiddleback pattern, and vibrant color range. Native to the diverse forests from New South Wales to Queensland, it features distinctive spotted markings from its shedding bark. Its rich spectrum of colours, from deep browns to sunlit straw tones, makes Spotted Gum the preferred choice of clients looking for a beautifully featured timber.

American Oak Light
For those coastal Mediterranean vibes that are still trending strong in 2025, American Oak Light is a must-have.
