Stikwood makes it easy to transform any room with real wood quickly and cost-effectively. I personally like the contemporary looks, but Stikwood also comes in a variety of more rustic looks. Stikwood is also economical, environmentally responsible, and offers so many creative design solutions. I have been seeing this product on HGTV, sold at West Elm and many other places, and I really would like to do our living room ceiling with it. Stikwood Barton(1) Designer and former super model Anne-Marie Barton has used Stikwood in several recent projects, and loves its ease of use and variety of finishes. For a bedroom located in a new home on a 160-acre ranch in Utah, she used white reclaimed Stikwood:
I used Stikwood in a vertical format which made the room feel taller and gave it a traditional look. It has a French Country feel; the whitewashed reclaimed wood walls brighten the room. We wanted to create a ‘white out’ in order to contrast with the rest of the home’s richer tones. The Stikwood texture brings credibility into the space; there’s a richness to the authentic wood.

Above all, I love texture and credibility. I spend most of my time begging my clients to integrate ‘authenticity’ to their spaces. This line of reclaimed wood makes it easy to bring that authenticity. Stikwood does more for a room than artwork or mirrors. If I had to choose one additional element for a space, it would be to add richness, integrity, texture and body to the walls.
