Fin Profile Timber Feature Wall

If you are looking for dimension and depth, the classic timber fin profile is the ideal choice. Available in either tapered paneling (V-Fin) or square, the angular, small profile of the fin works well for internal feature walls.

If you have decided on Western Red Cedar feature walls they also work well in the external areas of buildings, which brings about an enhanced synergism between outdoor and indoor spaces.

It makes sense why the Fin profile is among the more popular Austratus products. These products are installed in numerous applications and they also come in an extensive array of colors.

The Fin profile is regarded as a versatile all-rounder that matches up to almost any application and building.

Flat Profile Timber Feature Wall

Do you have an idea for timber feature walls that entails achieving a classic Australian weatherboard appeal? Then you may want to look at the Austratus Flat profile.

The broad surfaces provide a way for the natural textures and tones of the timber to shine through. These products also lend well when it comes to a coated finish.

A flat wood profiled panel feature wall works very well in many different areas of the home such as dining rooms, reception rooms, and media rooms.

You can even think about combining the fin profile with the flat profile to achieve a fantastic multifaceted and multi-textured look. The Flat profile feature walls come with uniform spacing “directly out of the box”.
