Description by Henri

When designing the cupboard, space and light were the most important things in a dark living room. The 2 parts provide a playful appearance as do the various open and closed pieces. A cupboard with storage space and space to display the most beautiful photos or glasses.

How I made this project

My daughter wanted a cupboard in her living room. After visiting the necessary stores we couldn't find a model she wanted. We then decided to design and make the cabinet ourselves. After the necessary drawings we had the desired model. We then ordered the wood via TOSIZE.lu and it was delivered neatly cut to size. We fitted the sides with edging and assembled the cabinet using... wood devils, we hung the doors in with a pressure mechanism. The result was to everyone's satisfaction. The cabinet is made in such a way that you can no longer see a screw!
