The distinguishing features of a Douglas Fir include its striking colour variations from pinks, browns to creams which adds a warm and natural aesthetic to any project. This wood also possesses a distinctive grain pattern with straight and even lines that enhance its visual appeal. The presence of knots, although less frequent than in some other softwoods, can add character and rustic charm to the finished product.
