Wood detritus: A functional concept in interior design

The cutting of trees for site construction and development had become a predominant factor in Ghana. Besides, the practice of cutting and leaving tree roots in the soil had become an impediment, such as harbouring wild reptiles like snakes, iguanas and an infestation of termites. These factors enda...

description The cutting of trees for site construction and development had become a predominant factor in Ghana.

These factors endanger individual lives, especially living in such environments. This study focused on repurposing wood detritus as a functional concept in the interior design. The study sought to analyse neem tree roots and their properties for a decorative piece in interior design.
