Until the end of the 50s, most kitchens were made of solid frames. During the 60s, however, it started to become more common for the larger manufacturers to replace the solid wood in the frames with a framework of joists that were clad in masonite. It was both cheaper and reduced weight. More lavish kitchen cabinets and drawer fronts were veneered with for example, teak, which gave an exclusive impression. Many of these kitchens are still standing today, but can often be complicated to dismantle in one whole piece in connection with framework replacements.
This kitchen is a show kitchen. Here the tenants have the opportunity to get a feel for the kitchens providing a sense of security to know what the new kitchen will be like prior to renovation.
Together with the developer, we produced drawings with cabinets from our standard range and the end result was an updated, fresh kitchen with a clear connection to the original, and with a solid feel.
Our Modern series is a functionalist, timeless kitchen borne out of our Original cabinets. Here we have chosen to let the frame take up a little less space to give a more modern look. Doors and drawer fronts are rebated and have a straighter profile.
Classic handles that are easy to grip.
A large generous pantry with five shelves to store dry goods.
A sink cabinet that is 800 wide provides plenty of storage for recycling and a generous sink.
The colour is our standard Light Beige.
A lot of storage in this relatively small kitchen. Nice feeling when the doors open and you meet solid wood.
The inside of the cabinets is treated with paraffin oil, which increases the resistance to dirt and stains. Can easily be sanded with sandpaper and oiled if a major discoloration should occur.
