Straight outta Ballard, baby.
Use good material, don't add what isn't needed, let the thing be what it is.

The details are the design.

P.S. We do inset LED lighting too, just FYI. 💡

Not every cabinet comes out perfect on the first try. The ones that don't are usually where we learn the most. .design

The exposed plywood edge isn't a flaw we're hiding, it's the whole point. Every layer tells you exactly what the cabinet is made of and how it was built. That kind of honesty is harder to achieve than it looks.

Made for the person who actually cooks. Maple plywood, sage tile, and hand notches instead of hardware. Nothing added that doesn't need to be there.

No handles. No plastic edge banding. No mystery fillers.

Just architectural-grade birch plywood, cut with CNC precision and joined by our hands. We don't hide our edges because there’s nothing to hide. 🪵✨

The Kerf Detail:
🔸 Core: FSC-certified birch veneers layered for maximum stability.
🔸 Surface: Genuine Maple or Walnut hardwood.
🔸 Finish: Zero-VOC, UV-cured acrylic and Osmo Polyx-oil.
🔸 Build: Formaldehyde-free (NAUF) bonding.

Modern engineering meets traditional craft. Built in Seattle, shipped across the US. 🇺🇸

We’re always grateful for word of mouth. It means a lot when people want to share the design with others. Thank you.

Instead of hanging utensils on the wall, this kitchen stores cooking tools in segmented drawer organizers. The top drawer holds utensils, while the lower drawer stores oils and cooking essentials for easy access.

We have a drawer for everything. What do you keep in your kitchen?
