Base Material
This is what your furniture is made of. Choosing the right base material, whether tough and robust, or something lighter and more suited to your budget, decides how your room will work for a long time to come. Consider this as one of your most important decisions while choosing furniture.
Teak Hardwood: Strong, dense and durable

- Can withstand warping and cracking even after years
- Naturally medium brown in colour, it can be simply polished in many finishes, adding to a glossy look and its lifespan
Oak Hardwood: Durable, economic choice
If you're looking for strong, durable furniture that not only looks sophisticated, but also fits your budget, oak is a good choice.

White Ash Hardwood: Sturdy yet lightweight
As the lightest coloured wood, it possesses a straight grain giving it a naturally smooth appearance. Its strength and durability make it an ideal choice for furniture that will last.

This fibre board has a higher density and can help you save on costs as it can be painted or stained to look just like wood.
