Elements of Traditional Craftsmanship in Modern Homes

Traditional craftsmanship adds a rich, historical feel to modern designs. Detailed carvings, the beauty of natural wood grains, and expert joinery techniques honor heritage while seamlessly merging into today’s homes. Berkeley Mills excels in integrating these timeless elements, crafting doors with enduring appeal.

Mixing Materials for a Unique Look

Combining materials like wood, glass, and metal can result in strikingly unique designs. For example, pairing the warmth of walnut with sleek stainless steel or incorporating frosted glass panels into a solid wood frame creates a balance between old-world charm and modern minimalism. These mixed-material designs resonate with homeowners seeking individuality.
