Solid wood furniture and wood interiors: a planning guide
A dining table, wardrobe, door and wall panel may be chosen separately, yet they share the same room. Start with how you live, then discuss dimensions, wood tones and the interfaces between each piece. This guide gives you a practical brief to bring to a Hongda Zhijia consultation.
Describe the scope before choosing a style
You may be looking for individual solid wood furniture, made-to-size cabinetry, or furniture and wood interiors planned together. At Hongda Zhijia, the whole-home wood scheme means furniture plus cabinetry, wood doors and wall panels. Plumbing, electrical work, waterproofing and tiling belong in a separately agreed building-work scope.
The brand range includes wardrobes, kitchen cabinets, wood doors, wall panels, wine cabinets and tatami, alongside solid wood furniture. Contemporary, New Chinese, Song-inspired, Nordic and American styles provide different starting points for discussing the scheme.
A room-by-room brief you can bring with you
Mark existing items and proposed changes on the same floor plan. Add the dimensions you have; discuss which measurements still need checking on site.
| Space | Record first | Discuss together |
|---|---|---|
| Entrance | Daily shoes, bags and seating needs; door-opening direction. | Shoe storage, a bench and the space needed for the door and cabinet fronts to open. |
| Living room | Seating, television and equipment dimensions; usual walking routes. | Tables, media cabinetry, wall panels, cable routes and access for equipment maintenance. |
| Dining room | Usual seating numbers, table position and appliances used nearby. | Table and chair clearance, sideboard storage, worktop use and socket positions. |
| Bedroom | Mattress size, clothing types and changing-space needs. | Bedside furniture, wardrobe openings, hanging/storage proportions and circulation. |
| Kitchen | Appliance models and known plumbing/electrical points. | Cabinet dimensions, appliance openings and interfaces with the existing room. |
| Study or multipurpose room | Reading, work, storage and occasional sleeping priorities. | Desk and cabinet layouts; tatami storage access if included in the proposal. |
Record materials by component
Use a separate line for a furniture frame, top, cabinet door, carcass, back panel, wood door and wall panel. For each item, ask for its material description, finish, relevant hardware and the sample or drawing used for confirmation. A shared colour name can guide appearance; the component list records what is actually being supplied.
Put interfaces on the same drawing
- Door frames, wall thickness, corners and skirting: identify where the adjoining surfaces meet.
- Cabinet tops, beams and adjacent furniture: confirm the available dimensions and opening clearances.
- Appliances, sockets and access panels: coordinate the proposed woodwork with the relevant trades and equipment requirements.
- Delivery and installation: discuss access, the order of work and which party is responsible for each interface.
Leave the discussion with a clear proposal
Keep a product list, component specifications, marked dimensions, sample references and unresolved questions together. Before agreeing the work, confirm the scope of site measurement and installation, quotation items, scheduling and acceptance arrangements for your actual project.
Common questions
Can I start with one room or a few furniture pieces?
Bring the items and rooms you want to coordinate. Discuss how the proposed pieces relate to furniture, flooring and doors that you plan to keep, then agree the actual supply scope.
Where can I explore the Song-inspired direction?
See our Song-inspired furniture and wood interiors guide for a different checklist focused on colour, line, proportions and the balance of storage and display.
