Surface Trends v1 - 1

“Good design” is a mysterious and yet powerful process. Commercial design is a balance of art and science. Inspiration and practicality. Vision and collaboration. Buildings and their furnishings can be warm, comfortable and inspiring places to work and live. As a manufacturer of many of the components that go into great buildings, furniture and fixtures, we stay in tune with design trends and deliver products that meet the needs of the changing market.

From the Forest to the Finished Product Great design considers sustainability. As a timberland owner managing more than 600,000 acres, we understand that wood is naturally sustainable. Trees keep growing as long as we keep planting them. Of our forests, 150,000 acres are FSC certified allowing us to deliver products with Chain-of-Custody certification. During manufacturing, we process and recycle 1.5 million tons of reclaimed wood waste annually, converting it into panels that sequester carbon. And that’s only the beginning of the story… Visit www.Roseburg.com to learn more.

FROM TREND BOARD Making Offices More Livable by Kenn Busch When discussing trends in workspace design it’s tempting to cite technology and furniture innovations, but those are just byproducts of the real driver – the extra time we’re spending at work, and the need to stay mentally engaged while we’re there. It’s no secret that longer hours don’t automatically translate to higher productivity. Being cooped up in a grey-blue cubicle under fluorescent light rarely brings out the best in people (studies show that these environments actually reduce productivity by up to 30 percent), so designers...

Natural woods are "in," there's no avoiding it. For both commercial and residential design, solid, honest, rich woodgrains are trending for furniture and interiors. Roseburg's Alabama Cherry in durable Du-ramine® panels was created from a cherry tree that was uprooted in a tornado in Pennsylvania in 1998. A master cabinetmaker rift-cut the trunk so that the radial growth rings run lengthwise, creating a very straight grain. Straight woodgrains are the easiest for designers to work with; flowers or cathedrals in the grain add character, but can make panel-to-panel matching difficult and may...

The UnColor If it's true that black is every color at once, what is white? Is it even a color at all? Well, it is and it isn't. There are many, many subtle shades of white: warm, cool, off, pure, dirty, clean, and everything in between. But for most projects, white is less of a color than it is a context. A foundation of white is what makes a piece of weathered barnboard or a slab of red come alive in a room. White gives you permission to choose accents with extra character. But it also helps to camouflage exposed conduit, and reduces random clutter by making it too visible to ignore. It's...

White is the dark matter of the design universe. If used well it’s very powerful and deserves to be treated with respect, but white should never be all there is. It might be a surprise to many, but like the rest of the industry, more than 50% of the Duramine we produce at Roseburg is some form of white. Roseburg distributors typically stock 2-3 shades of white that complement a variety of exciting Duramine solids, woodgrains and patterns. Surface Trends | volume 1
