Joris Ide associates the warmth of wood with the advantages of metal
Wood is the ultimate authentic and warm material, but its maintenance can be demanding, requiring regular care and treatments. An innovative alternative exists: Joris Ide’s JI Nature and JI NatureBlack coatings, which combine the natural aesthetics of wood with the advantages of steel.
These coatings provide an authentic effect with realistic wood-toned finishes while ensuring the simplified installation and low maintenance of a metal profile. Unlike wood, they do not warp, fade, or require any treatment.

JI Nature : the OG
The JI Nature concept developed by Joris Ide offers various coating finishes that realistically replicate the warm appearance of wood, without the drawbacks of traditional wood. This allows you to enjoy cladding that maintains its flawless look over the years, without the need for laborious and costly treatments to protect it from the elements.
Available in multiple wood finishes – Wood, Wood Heritage, Light Oak, Charcoal – JI Nature is compatible with most Joris Ide profile geometries, making it suitable for all types of architecture, whether modern or traditional.
JI NatureBlack: The meeting of metal and open-joint cladding
Increasingly popular, open-joint cladding is appreciated for its modern and warm aesthetic. That’s why Joris Ide created JI NatureBlack, a range of metal coatings that perfectly mimic the look of ventilated facades. Its unique design alternates wood-toned slats with deep matte black strips that fade into the background, enhancing the illusion of natural wood.
With geometries inspired by traditional wooden facades (battens, weatherboards, and rafters), JI NatureBlack combines elegance and realism while offering the ease of installation and durability of metal—without the maintenance constraints of traditional wood.
