How to combine wood with other materials

Wood has always been a timeless material - warm, natural, and full of character. But what truly brings it to life is how it interacts with other materials. In modern architecture and interior design, wood’s versatility shines when paired thoughtfully with contrasting elements. Here’s how you can elevate your next project by blending wood with:

Stone: The raw, organic textures of stone perfectly complement wood’s warmth. Together, they create spaces that feel grounded, natural, and sophisticated - ideal for kitchens, fireplaces, or outdoor areas.

Metal: Steel or black iron frames add structure and modern edge to the softness of wood. Whether in staircases, façades, or furniture details, this pairing gives a balanced mix of strength and style.

Glass: Combining wood with glass allows light to flow freely, highlighting the grain and color variations in the wood. It’s perfect for open, airy designs with a sense of continuity.

From exterior details to interior finishes, combining wood with other materials can transform any space into something truly unique. At Charous Wooden Constructions, we create custom designs that highlight the beauty of wood while ensuring every element works in perfect harmony - built to last, and made to inspire.
