Why People Choose Timber

Timber is chosen first with the eyes and the heart. It softens hard surfaces, frames views with warmth, and introduces a natural rhythm of grain and colour you simply cannot fake. Whether stained to showcase the species or painted to blend quietly into the architecture, timber adds a layer of depth and character that elevates any opening beyond the purely functional.

But the choice is not just emotional. Responsibly sourced timber is renewable, has low embodied energy, and can dramatically improve how a space feels and performs. It offers excellent natural insulation, absorbs sound, and helps create interiors that are calm, comfortable, and connected to the landscape outside.

Aesthetics & Natural Charm

Each piece of timber carries its own story — the grain, the knots, the subtle shifts in tone. In a finished window or door, those details become part of the architecture, catching the light differently through the day and softening the line between inside and out. Timber has presence without shouting; it makes a room feel more considered, more human.

The Timber Collection focuses on species and finishes that amplify this natural charm. From pale, contemporary tones that sit quietly in minimal interiors to richer, deeper timbers that anchor a façade, every option is selected to photograph beautifully on day one and age gracefully over time.

Sustainability You Can See and Feel

Choosing timber is also a statement about how the building is made. Our timber collection is centred on responsibly sourced hardwoods, chosen for their performance and traceability. Used thoughtfully, timber is a renewable material that locks away carbon for the life of the building, with significantly lower embodied energy than many alternative framing materials.

For clients who care about both design and impact, The Timber Collection offers a way to specify windows and doors that look beautiful, perform strongly, and align with a lighter footprint. The material itself becomes part of the sustainability story of the home.

Energy Performance & Everyday Comfort

Timber is a natural insulator. Compared with highly conductive materials, it slows heat transfer, helping keep interiors warmer in winter and cooler in summer. Paired with the right glazing, seals, and hardware, timber frames become a quiet backbone to the home’s energy strategy — less reliance on heating and cooling, more stable, comfortable rooms.

For architectural homes and high-performance builds, The Timber Collection can be detailed to meet strict energy requirements while still delivering the softness and tactility people love. The result is not just a beautiful façade but a more liveable interior climate day in, day out.

Timber Species to Suit Every Project

Different projects call for different timbers. Some spaces want pale, contemporary tones that let the architecture do the talking. Others demand richer, more dramatic grain that becomes a feature in its own right. The Timber Collection is built around a refined selection of species chosen for their appearance, stability, and suitability to Australian conditions.

Lighter species are ideal for coastal homes and clean modern interiors, while denser, darker timbers bring gravitas to entry doors, feature windows, and spaces where you want the frame to feel like furniture. We help you match the species to the story of the home — not just on paper, but in how it will feel to live with every day.

Colour, Finish & Detailing

Finish is where a timber window or door truly comes to life. Clear coats celebrate the natural grain and tone of the species, highlighting every subtle shift in colour. Stains can push a timber warmer, cooler, lighter, or darker to align perfectly with flooring, cabinetry, and exterior cladding. Painted finishes create a crisp, architectural frame while still benefitting from the depth and texture of real timber beneath.

The Timber Collection supports a broad palette of clear, stained, and painted options, along with carefully considered hardware, profiles, and junction details. The result is a calm, cohesive language across the home — from the front door to the smallest highlight window — where every element feels intentionally designed, not just installed.
