Three Steps in Wood Tone

A mountain lodge with three depths of wood tones. The lightest is newer pine furniture and flooring, in a warm honey-brown color; the middle is the old wooden boards of the walls and ceiling, dark brown with a hint of gray; the deepest is the beams and localized smoked wood, almost black. All three are in the same warm brown hue, differing only in lightness. Because there are three depths, the large areas of wood do not appear monotonous. Avoid: having all wood use the same depth; adding cool-toned and gray-toned wood; using whitewashed and bleached wood; having too small a difference in lightness to distinguish layers.

一個木色分成三個深度的山屋。最淺的是新一點的松木家具與地板,顏色是溫暖的蜜褐;中間是牆與天花的舊木板,深褐帶灰;最深的是樑與局部的燻木,接近黑。三者都是同一個暖褐色相,只有明度不同。因為有三階,大面積的木材不會顯得單調。避免:讓所有木材使用同一個深度、加入冷調與灰調的木、使用刷白與漂白的木、讓明度的差距過小分不出層次。
