Wood is your friend—a welcoming, forgiving surface that instantly warms up a room. This week the Remodelista editors rekindled their romance with larch, walnut, and reclaimed barn siding (stay tuned for upcoming photos of Justine’s newly refinished floors). Here are five of our editors’ favorite ways to use wood to warm a room:

Home Spas

The Badkast, an enclosed version of a bathtub, is handmade from a single larch tree from the Netherlands.

Nightstand, seating, side table—the question is what can’t the Alvar Aalto 60 Stool with a black linoleum top do? (It is $275 at Design Within Reach.)

Meredith had a lot of questions about reclaimed wood flooring: “Is it really eco-friendly? Where exactly does the wood come from? Is reclaimed wood flooring a trend that’s already had its day?” For the answers, see this week’s Remodeling 101 post.
