WOODMATT FAVOURITES

Classic Oak Woodmatt: A warm, light-toned woodgrain with subtle texture, Classic Oak brings a sense of ease and timelessness to cabinetry. It’s ideal for coastal, Scandinavian, and family home interiors. We’ve used it across full kitchens, open shelving, and paired it with white stone for a soft, natural look.

Natural Walnut Woodmatt: For a more sophisticated and slightly moodier palette, Natural Walnut offers depth and warmth with its rich grain. It’s a popular choice for vanities, entertainment units, and home offices where texture and tone are key. Clients love its luxurious finish without the upkeep of natural timber.

Tasmanian Oak Woodmatt: This soft, creamy-toned oak is a go-to for light, breezy interiors. It works beautifully in laundries, wardrobes, and open shelving zones—adding a soft touch of timber without overpowering the room. It pairs well with white or pastel cabinetry and works across both modern and classic interiors.

SOLID COLOUR STANDOUTS

Raw Cotton: One of the most popular Laminex colours in recent years, Raw Cotton is a soft, warm white with a creamy undertone. It feels softer than stark white and works in both classic and contemporary spaces. We use it across kitchens, vanities, and built-ins where a timeless and clean look is required.

French Cream: For those looking to add warmth to their cabinetry, French Cream is a standout. It’s a muted beige with enough pigment to contrast subtly with white walls and stone. It’s been a favourite for full-height cabinetry and traditional-style kitchens with brass or brushed nickel hardware.

Seed: An earthy green with a muted tone, Seed is fast becoming the hero colour of modern Australian joinery. It adds depth, personality, and warmth without overwhelming a space. We’ve seen it used on feature islands, laundry cabinetry, and powder room vanities—often paired with oak woodgrain or natural stone.
