ABOUT THE OAK & HAND‑PAINTED BIRCH PLY KITCHEN

Introducing the Oak & Hand‑Painted Birch Ply Kitchen — a bespoke kitchen created with a thoughtful mix of natural oak character and the flexibility of hand‑painted birch plywood. This design reflects our dedication to quality joinery, sustainable material choices and tailored finishes to deliver a kitchen that’s as individual as its owners.

By combining the warmth and strength of oak with the versatility and sustainability of birch plywood, this kitchen achieves a balance between timeless natural beauty and customisable design. The hand‑painted birch ply allows for tailored colour and finish, while oak elements bring texture, solidity and classic appeal. The result is a kitchen that marries practicality, longevity and bespoke aesthetic in one harmonious space.

In keeping with our ethos of sustainable kitchen design, this kitchen makes use of responsibly sourced materials and finishes chosen for durability and environmental care. The Oak & Hand‑Painted Birch Ply Kitchen isn’t just made for today — it’s built for decades of use, evolving with life while holding on to character and craftsmanship.

 

KITCHEN HIGHLIGHTS

  1. A refined mix of natural oak and hand‑painted birch ply cabinetry — combining texture, warmth and custom finish flexibility.
  2. Bespoke, made-to-measure design — every unit, panel and paint finish crafted for the space and client’s vision, avoiding off-the-shelf compromises.
  3. Sustainable and durable build — using FSC or responsibly sourced birch plywood for carcasses, paired with oak detailing for longevity and a timeless feel.

KITCHEN DETAILS

  • Cabinet carcasses & structure: Constructed primarily from high‑grade birch plywood — a material recognised for excellent strength, screw‑holding capacity, and resistance to warping or sagging, even under heavy use (ideal for busy kitchens).
  • Doors & Visible Elements: Finished with hand‑painted surfaces over birch ply — offering complete control over colour, sheen and style, while providing a stable, smooth base that accepts paint evenly.
  • Oak Detailing & Accents: Where oak is used — such as for drawer fronts, shelving, worktops or feature elements — it brings a distinct grain, warmth and classic character that complements the painted birch. This mix enriches the overall texture and visual depth of the kitchen.
  • Sustainability & Finish Philosophy: All timber is responsibly sourced; birch plywood reduces the need for scarce slow‑growth hardwoods, and its durability avoids frequent replacement. Finishes and sealants are selected for low volatile emissions, aligning with eco‑conscious design practices.
