Custom American White Oak Cabinets

Before the renovation

Project description

A full renovation from design to execution.
The client brief was a sunny and fun space for their home office with a minimalist storage solution.

During the design consultation, we wanted to create a bright and playful space for their home office where they work full time. As this was the space where they spend majority of their day, we had to consider the extra wear and traffic that the space would take compared to a regular residential room.
We opted for a premium finish while carefully selecting cost-effective products to ensure the project stayed within budget.

The first step was to remove dated carpet for a warm oak floor (cappuccino oak) to create a great foundation as we introduced colours and textures to the space.
We were lucky the space benefits from an abundance of natural light so we selected a soft blue and classic warm white paint combination next (it always looks deeper when it goes on a large surface area!) and tidied up the cracks and prepped the walls, ceilings and windows.

Next I designed and manufactured American White Oak cabinets with a handleless push-to-open detail. The design was inspired by minimalist Japanese and Scandinavian or "Japandi" design. The cabinets were stained with a custom brown/oak to remove pink tones and compliment the flooring. Sealed with a hardwax and bufffed to a satin finish.

Finally the skirting was replaced to match the rest of the property.
