Wood Range Hoods Naturally Fit Kitchen Style
Bring warmth and beauty into the heart of your home with a range hood crafted from nature's bounty
I'm a lover of form and function. As a designer I seek out form, and as an on-the-go adult I thrive on function. With that being said, wooden range hoods are right up my alley. Functionally, they draw smoke, grease, odors and moisture out of the kitchen air; formwise, they look sensational while doing so.
The range hood is the focal point or anchor of a kitchen. Whether it stands alone or is flanked by cabinets, it affects the mood of the entire cucina. My personal favorite range hood style is wood. Wood hoods can either be matched to the cabinetry or done in a contrasting finish for a mixed-material pop. Texturally, wooden hoods also kick things up a notch.
