The concepts behind modern design insinuate a departure from the conformity to aesthetics and construction. Abstract designs and exotic materials have often accentuated these specifications to your wallet’s content. Thankfully, minimalism has reigned and challenged designers to step into ‘out of the box’ thinking. With the Bulthaup b2 Kitchen Tool Cabinet, it appears they have embraced the box, much as every man happily does.
Mimicking the tool cabinets of a man’s garage, this concept embraces a masculine form of order…the order of instinct and inclination of how we men just know where our shit is supposed to go- a concept foreign to all women, baffling men around the world.
The use of oak wood for the construction of the cabinet enhances this ideal not only for aesthetic appearance, but quite possibly for the slight hint of aroma. The ‘ode to the smell of wood’ is the inception in which the man’s kitchen transforms into a man’s work bench.
