The trend of matching your interior wood finishes is slowly fading, yet many people are still afraid to mix multiple wood finishes in the same room. Mixing wood finishes can give your home a unique and textured look as long as you follow some guidelines.

Pair Complements
Wood finishes do not need to match; however, they should complement each other. Look at the color bias of each wood and make sure their undertones match regardless of their finish.

Incorporating too much of the same woods can prevent individual pieces from standing out.
