It feels very often speak about total white which relies on the particular style where everything is flattened in white, whiteness and the glow that inevitably blind us. I tried to design and build an total white to understand that  this concept does not exist in reality except in the forcing of the term. There is no material in nature totally white as there is no absolute black. This suggests that if we use natural materials and not copies we should exclude the effect of an hospital.
A possible alternative is the total wood and consistent with itself solves every aspect with untreated wood. Could it never become a style in vogue like the most well-known relative? I think it would take decades to receive general public acclamation or maybe never reach it.
Basically because what is true disturb more than what is false, given that we have to respect without expect it to be something other than itself, or as we like it.
