BUILDING MATERIALS: Beautiful Wooden Planks
I'm not sure if there is a building material I like more than beautiful wood planks. These boards can show off variations in a gorgeous wood. They can emphasize either horizontal or vertical lines.

Sometimes they bring a natural element to a sleek interior, sometimes they add warmth to a stark space, and sometimes they add interest to an otherwise plain old drywalled wall. Consider them for your next remodeling project - here are some examples where houzz members have used wooden planks in a beautiful way:

These rough hewn wide planks add a nice natural element to this sleek bathroom.
Here the planks serve as a long visual headboard for both beads.
Here slatted planks serve as modern outdoor plantation blinds.
I love the variation in these plants, especially in contrast to the stark white tub.
the use of planks in this cozy media den said "this room is more casual than the formal dining room you just left".
Bright white walls are given some character by horizontal planks here.
The planks on this ceiling steal the show in this kitchen/dining area.
Aren't these unique tiles that emulate the look of weathered wood planks gorgeous? Brilliant.
A floor and ceiling combo- note that they run perpendicular to one another.
