Approach

Built from birch plywood, this custom table and bench set was designed to maximise functionality without compromising on aesthetics. The benches feature concealed, easy access pull-out drawers perfect for stowing everyday clutter. We kept the lines minimal and let the beauty of the ply shine through, adding subtle detailing like inset panels and mirrored brass foot rails for a refined finish.
