information
This cabinet designed by Piet Hein Eek looks like a pile of beams and has an impressive geometric pattern. An interior cupboard is slid into an exterior cupboard, and the sides of plywood are covered by solid wood. In this way, the fixtures of the blocks of wood are kept out of sight, and the end grain of the plywood is finished. The measurements, the solution for the skirting, and the way the handle is concealed in the surface of the end grain timber, all these result from features of the beam.
