After

The slat spacing was printed on paper and taped to the island before anything was cut.

  • Sprayed Black Iron
  • Slatted island front, made to size
  • Dishwasher panel and six drawer fronts remade
  1. Printed paper sheets showing the slat spacing taped to the flat front of the existing dark island, tested full size before the panel was made

    01

    Paper, taped to the island it is going to cover. The slats were printed at full size and held up against the actual panel in the actual light, because spacing that looks right on a screen looks striped on a wall. The real panel was cut to 85 11/16 by 34 9/16 after this, not before.

  2. The van loaded with wrapped doors and panels standing on end, strapped for the drive back to the shop

    02

    Every door and panel out of a fifth-floor loft, wrapped and standing in the van. This is the ten days people mean when they say the kitchen is away — it is only the fronts that travel, and the boxes stay screwed to the wall the whole time.

  3. The finished island with a black slatted front and a butcher-block top, the surrounding cabinetry sprayed the same near-black

    03

    The panel and the doors came out of the same gun on the same day, which is the only way a slatted front sits quietly against flat doors. Different sheens read as different colours long before different pigments do.
