Kitchen on The Shore

We've just finished installing an off-the-shelf kitchen for a client in Edinburgh who was looking to enhance the standard cabinets with solid elm worktops, shelving and other details. Inspired by the finger or box joints commonly used in Scandinavian drawers, the worktop and haffets were completed with oversized finger joints adding visual interest to both top and side surfaces.  It took four of us an hour to lift the completed worktop sections up four flights of stairs. I think they would look equally nice in balsa wood.
