Reclaimed materials are an excellent source of interior design inspiration for those that wish to remain environmentally conscious without compromising on a stylish outcome. The popularity of reclaimed materials, described as materials which have been salvaged from other building projects or items that have been reused and modified for use in a new building project, grow with every passing year.

Below, Cawarden Brick & Tile Co. Limited have highlighted five rooms in which reclaimed materials could find a fitting home.

Kitchen
Reclaimed materials look absolutely stunning in a kitchen of any age. Reclaimed wood is often a popular choice in many kitchens, adding a special appeal that simply cannot be re-created by newer materials available on the market today. If you’re interested in a kitchen which proudly displays its imperfections, oak or pine flooring crafted from repurposed wood could be the ideal solution for you.

Living Room
Reclaimed fireplaces are a great way to add a touch of elegance to your living room. Constructed from the highest quality material, a reclaimed fireplace will instantly become the centrepiece of your living room. If you’re looking for a remarkable juxtaposition, decorate your living room with a light and creamy colour, creating a striking contrast from the dark, prominent structure of the reclaimed fireplace.

Bedroom
In this current culture, it is often popular to paint a feature wall into the interior of the bedroom to create a two-colour theme. An alternative to paint would be to install an exposed reclaimed brick feature wall behind the headboard of the bed. By using brick slips, you will achieve a look of authenticity which is individual and very stylish.

Bathroom
Cast iron radiators are more heat efficient than modern radiators, and will instantly create a timeless, evocative feel for your bathroom. At Cawarden Brick & Tile Co, we can finish the cast iron radiators in a colour of your choosing to ensure that it matches with your interior theme perfectly.

Here at Cawarden, we wholly encourage the use of reclaimed materials, such as noted above, in order to complete a home renovation. If you’d like to talk to a member of the team today about any of our reclaimed products on offer, do not hesitate to get in contact by calling 01889 574066.
