Wall Cabinet
White ash, coopered doors, an interior stained deep indigo.
The doors are resawn from one board and bookmatched, so the grain opens outward from the centre line like a pair of wings. They are coopered — built from staves and faired by hand — which lets the front of the case read as a single soft curve rather than two flat panels. The V cut into their lower edge is the only pull the cabinet has.
Everything behind them is stained. Shelves, back, sides, the drawer front and the plinth all carry the same indigo, so opening the doors is less like opening a cupboard than like opening a window onto a different room. The plinth repeats the colour underneath, which lifts the pale case off whatever surface it stands on.
