This report proposes new ways to utilise local wood in home appliances. The aim of the study is to broaden the use of local timber, add warmth to rooms with the warmth of wood, and to provide social awareness-raising benefits from the use of wood as a recyclable resource. In the study, wooden mock-ups were produced and evaluated by users. As a result, many positive evaluations were obtained, thus fulfilling the objective of the study.
