Now live on ArchiPro Australia, the timber specialist brings its carefully curated portfolio into a new design context, offering Australian specifiers a more connected way to explore timber flooring, cabinetry panels, wall and ceiling panelling in one place.

At the centre of this next chapter is Alor, Forté’s integrated timber surface system designed to connect floors, walls, ceilings and cabinetry panels through one cohesive material language.

Alor is designed to do something timber has long promised but rarely delivered with this level of precision: true tonal continuity across an entire interior. Surfaces are made to continue, coordinate and complement one another, allowing designers to carry a single timber expression from the floor underfoot to the ceiling above, and across every wall and joinery panel in between.

Crafted from prefinished European Oak and available in both plank and panel formats, the collection allows tone, grain and finish to be carried across multiple applications. For projects where material consistency matters, this is where Alor becomes particularly compelling, helping designers resolve interiors with greater clarity and confidence.

The collection has been developed with precision in mind, with finishes designed to coordinate across adjacent timber flooring, cabinetry panels, wall linings and ceiling applications. Natural and ABS edgebanding options are available for cabinetry applications, supporting a more resolved edge detail without compromising the collection’s clean, continuous aesthetic.

Available in eight colourways, Cove, Solis, Tusk, Asta, Ember, Ochre, Nox and Inca, Alor gives designers a restrained but expressive palette for interiors where warmth, texture and continuity are central to the design language.

For designers who care about cohesion, Alor is a significant addition to the toolkit. It positions timber not as a single feature, but as a complete architectural surface system.

For Australian projects where material continuity is becoming increasingly central to the way interiors are conceived, Forté’s arrival on ArchiPro offers a timely new resource and, with Alor, a collection that brings the full interior surface experience into sharper focus.
