Gauthier Street Home Renovation - Basement

Basement, Ottawa

This basement renovation features a large wall made of reclaimed barn board wood. If you’re looking to add a rustic touch to your space while also keeping the environment front of mind, consider using reclaimed wood for your next project. Utilizing reclaimed wood as an accent wall, piece of furniture or decor statement is a growing trend in home renovations that is here to stay. These clients decided to use reclaimed barnboard as an accent wall for their basement renovation, which serves as a gorgeous focal point for the room. Reclaimed wood is also a great option from an environmental standpoint. When you choose reclaimed wood instead of investing in fresh lumber, you are helping to preserve the natural timber resources for additional future uses. Less demand for fresh lumber means less logging and therefore less deforestation - a win-win!
