LOOOOOVE THE SLATS and the shadows it casts!

13 years ago

Hi. I was just wondering if you had to build the slats yourself or were they ordered from a company? I am a private home owner and a huge fan of modern design. Thanks.

The slats are 2x2 (1 1/2" x 1 1/2") cedar boards which are commonly available through a lumber yard.

Is the wood stained, and if so, what type and shade of stain?

Is there a recycled plastic alternative to the wood slats?
