A Funky Kitchen Makeover

Vincent transformed his kitchen into a vibrant and functional space with unique features. The project included installing the countertops, drawer fronts, shelves, and skirting boards, all custom-made using wood from TOSIZE.lu.

The Functional Makeover

This kitchen renovation shows how a little creativity and craftsmanship can bring a kitchen to life. The striking countertop not only provides a practical workspace but also adds character to the room. The pink drawer fronts are a playful addition that adds a personal touch to the kitchen. A series of sturdy shelves provides ample space for cookbooks and decorative items.

The Design and Materials

Vincent opted for a warm wooden countertop that contrasts beautifully with the pink drawer fronts. The chosen wood type, Timberboard Oak A/B, fits perfectly with the modern yet cozy atmosphere of the space. The clean lines of the skirting boards and the subtle details of the drawer fronts complete the design.

Placement in the Kitchen

The kitchen is located in a spacious, bright room with a large window, allowing for optimal natural light. Custom-made elements ensure that every inch is used optimally, resulting in a stylish and organized look.

From TOSIZE.lu

Thanks to TOSIZE.lu, it was possible to get the wood to the exact dimensions he wanted. This allowed Vincent to realize his dream kitchen without having to compromise on the dimensions or type of wood.

Building your own kitchen offers unprecedented freedom! You choose the design, dimensions, and materials, and it usually saves money too. With a little help and the right materials, such as those provided here by TOSIZE.lu, your kitchen will look professional and unique.

Modern with a Twist of its Own

The end result is a modern kitchen that still feels warm and inviting. The industrial-style lamps and playful color choices combine to create a balance between modernity and coziness.

Benefits of Timberboard Oak A/B

With Timberboard Oak A/B as your chosen wood species, you'll enjoy a beautiful finish that's both strong and aesthetically pleasing. Oak exudes luxury and has a timeless look, making it a popular choice for kitchen projects.

Handy Tips from the Professional

Tip: When painting drawer fronts, make sure you prepare the surface thoroughly by sanding and degreasing it first. This ensures a smooth and durable finish that will last for years.

Step by step guide

Preparation

  • First I designed a sketch through Blender to get an idea of what it should become.
  • After that I prepared all the walls and bought kitchen bases from the Swedish brand.

Montage

  • I installed these using reused "old" oak kitchen panels as doors and drawers.
  • To then complement this with beautiful oak from opmaatzagen.nl with a semi-gloss lacquered finish as a worktop, skirting board and small drawer fronts.

Finish

  • Wall shelves made of the same wood and in the same finish should also not be missing.
  • To then let everything come into its own in a unique, quirky kitchen.

Delivery

General experience

Ordering through the website worked perfectly, and the delivery was also excellent. However, upon inspection of the wood, it initially seemed quite disappointing; almost all of the wood had burn marks on the milled edges. However, after a bit of back and forth with customer service, we received a more than satisfactory solution, with all the damaged parts being re-delivered, this time properly. Ultimately, I'm completely satisfied with the service!
