The Brief
The brief, and the surface.
- Surface
- Wooden pavilion — decking (horizontal), lattice screens (vertical), exposed beams (overhead)
- Climate & Exposure
- Tropical, seasonal monsoon, sustained UV exposure on the lattice and roof
- On-site Notes
- Three surface roles need split chemistry — Wood Oil 236 for decking, Wood Varnish 260 for vertical and overhead
- Pigment 668 tone-matched job-site; refresh on every recoat to preserve uniformity

A large open-air timber pavilion with a Japanese-style sloped roof, exposed beams, and lattice screens, set above a wide outdoor deck. The structure needed two chemistries: a penetrating oil for the horizontal deck where foot traffic happens, and a vapour-permeable varnish for the vertical lattice and overhead beams where UV exposure dominates. LEINOS Terrace Wood Oil 236 went onto the decking; LEINOS Premium Wood Varnish 260 sealed the lattice and beams with Pigment Concentrate 668 hand-mixed in for tone matching.
The team split the structure by exposure: decking first with Wood Oil 236 in two thin coats, then lattice and beams overhead with Wood Varnish 260 in two coats. Pigment 668 was hand-mixed job-site into the varnish to match the deck tone — a 30-minute calibration pass before the lattice coats began.

Outcome
The result on site.
Across the Hyderabad pavilion's deck, beams, and lattice screens, LEINOS Wood Oil 236 + Wood Varnish 260 + Pigment 668 produce a single uniform golden-brown finish despite three different surface roles.
The pavilion reads as a single material — decking, beams, and lattice all share a warm golden-brown tone, with the lattice slightly more saturated where the varnish built more body. Vapour escapes through the lattice on humid mornings; no condensation patches under the eaves.
Results vary by surface condition, climate exposure, application method, and ongoing maintenance.
