Did you know that your environment can affect your physical state? For example, a cluttered space can increase stress while ample natural light sources can calm anxiety. Your environment can help or hinder many aspects of your physical and emotional health, including executive functioning, focus, productivity, and emotional regulation. Designers and builders are increasingly adding biophilic design elements to promote a greater sense of well-being in a facility’s inhabitants. Here’s what you need to know about effortlessly blending our wood veneers into your space.
What Is Biophilic Design?
Biophilic design incorporates natural elements in a space. Research shows that natural elements, such as wood and stone, can help promote not just feelings of well-being but also sharper senses and greater creativity. The benefits can extend far beyond the individual by increasing retention rates and bottom lines in workspaces. The right elements can reduce stress hormones, lower blood pressure, and promote a better work environment.

Do you have to “go boho” to enjoy a calming, relaxing space? Do you need a clean, sharp Scandi style for a better backdrop for your natural elements? The answer is “no” in both cases. Biophilic design elements work well with nearly every design concept and all architectural styles. One of the best ways to start is with Jacaranda’s wood veneer wallcoverings.
Adding Wood Accents to Your Space
From sleekly modern minimalist spaces to dramatic elegant spaces and everything in between, Jacaranda’s fine wood veneer wallcoverings can transform any space. You can effortlessly blend our wood veneers into your aesthetic. Whether you seek a modern, minimalist look or a classic, sophisticated ambiance, our veneers are the perfect choice to bring your vision to life.
Along with your wood statement wall, you can add more wood elements for warmth and comfort, like wood flooring, doors, cabinetry, molding, and trim.
Incorporating Wood into Your Design Scheme
Wood is a bold and beautiful choice, and it’s one natural element that works in any room or building with few design limitations. You can even use wood to emphasize your own design choices. Elements of beech or white oak are light and airy and work well in boho or coastal spaces while rich mahogany and ebony are heavy, dramatic statement pieces that are perfect for an art deco space. Try acacia, oak, and birch for Hollywood Regency designs or diverse woods like walnut or oak for modern organic spaces.
Choosing the Right Design Elements
Incredibly versatile, long-lasting, and beautiful, wood can be used in many ways, including in furniture and accents, in a room or building. Hardwood flooring has always been popular, and wood statement walls have soared in popularity in recent years. An accent wall acts as a focal point in a space, drawing attention and creating a backdrop for workspaces, entertainment venues, and product displays. They are simple yet sophisticated with a natural organic look and feel.
