Wood is good
As Oliver says, organic-based designs, patterns and textures reminds us of positive experiences we’ve had within nature and have been shown to reduce stress, creating a calming, restorative quality in the home. Numerous studies have found that wood reduces heart rate and has a calming, restorative effect. Its repetitive patterns and textures, warm tactile feel, and the way light reflects off it, help us to reconnect with nature and strengthen our inherent love of it. The same principles also apply to the home – so wooden shutters and blinds like these in Oliver's spare bedroom not only look great but can be good for your health and well-being too.
