The First One
This cabinet merges traditional woodworking with modern style, using salvaged teak and birch plywood. Time-honored joinery and hand-crafted finishes showcase artisanship, while slatted patterns and varied hues lend a modern touch. The textured slats produce visual effects and dynamic shadows as the door shifts, adding playful energy and artistry. This blend honours classic methods whilst incorporating modern materials, ensuring functionality and expression.
