“Wood has no place in modern interiors.” It’s a design myth we’ve heard too often, usually from those who picture only rustic cabins or traditional colonial doors. But this outdated thinking ignores how far wooden door design has evolved. Modern architecture isn’t just about stark minimalism – it’s about discovering unexpected possibilities in familiar materials.
Our in-house design team has transformed this vision into 15 original door designs, each playing with bold patterns and refined color combinations. These pieces show how simple changes in composition and finish can turn an ordinary wooden door into a modern architectural statement.
Whether you’re planning a renovation or seeking inspiration, these designs are surprisingly simple to adapt – proving that contemporary style is more about creative vision than complex modifications.
