The chairman office is like a tailor-made suit for a businessman. Not only must it fit, but it must also demonstrate leadership. Among dozens of materials, wood grain is the most popular language of power. But the question that many people think is simple is often confused when they have to choose between Vietnamese wood – full of tradition. Or imported wood – representing international class? From the perspective of an interior designer, I do not choose to follow the trend. I choose according to the “quality” that the leader wants to exude. This article not only compares, but also helps you understand deeply to choose the right “wooden shirt” worthy of the wearer.
1. Discover 2 worlds of materials in the designing the chairman office
Vietnamese Wood – Rustic beauty imbued with national soul
Vietnamese wood is mainly exploited from two sources: natural forests and domestic plantations. Concentrated mainly in the mountainous provinces of the North, Central Highlands or South Central Coast. Notable types of wood include xoan dao, Vietnamese oak, mahogany, rosewood, lim… These are types of wood with high hardness, beautiful wood grain. And the ability to withstand force and durability is very good in the hot and humid climate of Vietnam.
Vietnamese wood is often used for traditional or Asian-style furniture products. Due to the nature of the wood grain, it is easy to carve and retains details for a long time. It is especially suitable for products that require sophisticated carving techniques. Although it does not have the flashy look of some imported wood lines. But Vietnamese wood conquers users with its rustic, warm and very “soulful” look. This is the perfect choice for leaders who love tradition. Want to preserve the national cultural identity in living and working spaces. (President’s office furniture – Why is natural wood so expensive?).
Imported wood – Material that shapes modern lifestyle
Different from the traditional beauty of Vietnamese wood. Imported wood brings luxury and modernity. Very popular in interior design today. Some popular foreign wood lines include: walnut, white oak, ash, ebony… These wood lines are mainly imported from the US, Canada, Europe, Africa and some Southeast Asian countries.
The biggest strength of imported wood lies in its aesthetics and stability. Its color and grain are unique and luxurious. In addition, it is highly stable, less warped and shrunk. Very suitable for the climate and technical requirements of modern interiors.
Imported wood is often used in minimalist, sophisticated design products in modern, Scandinavian, Contemporary styles… This is the ideal choice for presidents who value aesthetics, difference and classy quality of life.
2. The difference between Vietnamese wood and imported wood
Vietnamese Wood – Traditional cultural identity for the chairman office space
When it comes to designing the president’s office, I always advise clients to consider Vietnamese wood. Especially when they want to express calmness, dignity and cultural depth. Wood types such as mahogany, ironwood, and rosewood are not only highly durable. They also have a pure Asian beauty. With gently curving wood grain, colors ranging from reddish brown to dark brown. They bring a feeling of warmth, dignity and a bit of “zen” to the space.
About the durability of Vietnamese wood
Vietnamese wood, especially long-lived natural wood. This type of wood has good bearing capacity and little shrinkage if processed properly. In actual construction, I have seen sets of ironwood tables and chairs that are more than 20 years old and still as sturdy as new. However, their weakness lies in the processing. If harvested prematurely or dried incorrectly, the wood will easily warp and crack on the surface. This is something that investors should keep in mind when choosing a construction unit.
The price of wood with traditional cultural identity
Vietnamese wood is usually 20-40% cheaper than imported wood. Therefore, it is suitable for medium and large enterprises that want to invest systematically while still controlling the budget. In addition, Vietnamese wood is easy to carve, suitable for making interiors in classical, neoclassical or modern Asian styles. Where every detail can tell a story about a brave captain.
In short, Vietnamese wood is the ideal choice if your business is aiming for a culturally profound president’s office. Showing composure, prestige and a solid foundation. Just like how a veteran leader often leaves an impression. (Wood artisan – The person who breathes life into the design of the president’s office).
Imported wood – International class for modern leadership space
If Vietnamese wood represents the depth of tradition, imported wood is the choice of presidents with a global mindset. Wood types such as walnut, white oak, ebony… Not only possess outstanding beauty, but also reflect a modern, minimalist and luxurious design language. Very suitable for presidents’ rooms in European or American style.
Aesthetically, imported wood often has sharp, strong and unique grain. Especially walnut wood with its noble dark chocolate brown color. Large, natural grain lines help the space become luxurious without too many elaborate details. This is the reason why the upper class and young presidents are very fond of this material.
The durability of imported wood is also a big advantage
Thanks to being processed according to international standards, industrial drying, and strict humidity control, imported wood retains its shape well, is extremely effective against warping and termites, even when used in 24/7 air-conditioned environments such as offices.
However, the quality comes with a fairly high price, which can be 1.5 to 3 times higher than domestic wood depending on the type. But for projects that need to show the position and image of a personal brand, this is a completely worthy investment. In addition, imported wood is also highly flexible in construction. They are easy to bend, easy to combine with metal, glass, leather, etc., helping to create designs for president’s desks, document cabinets, and decorative walls that are both classy and minimalist.
In short, if you want to create a president’s room with an international, youthful, modern feel. At the same time, it demonstrates a trend-leading leadership mindset. Imported wood is an almost unrivaled choice.(Top 5 materials that make up an expensive president’s office).
Conclude
During the process of designing the president’s rooms from traditional offices in Hanoi to modern spaces in Ho Chi Minh City. I have learned one thing: wood is just a material, but the way of choosing wood reflects the leader’s mindset. Vietnamese wood is suitable for calmness, depth and spirit of identity. Meanwhile, imported wood reflects international aesthetic taste, innovation and strategy to modernize the leader’s image. The important thing is not to choose which type is more expensive. But to choose the material that can convey the right spirit, style and stature of the president. A space can be neat and luxurious, but only when it reflects the “human quality”. Only then will it truly have soul and create a true leadership mark.
