These unique cabinet fronts are made from plywood punching plates discarded from the industrial process of creating cardboard boxes. The Belgian firm Rotor promotes the re-use of interesting industrial materials that often go to waste. These kitchen cabinets are the work of Lionel Devlieger and Eric Van den Broucke.

Agreed - these are awesome.

They do look great, and I could see them working even better in a more "styled" kitchen. Or as built-in cabinets in any room.

At least this is not a pottery barn, C & B, or west elm topic. Thank god for that.
However, this is a welcome innovation into both design and recycling.
Thnx..

While the idea of re-use has merit I find these very unattractive. I have to disagree with the earlier comments.

Wow. What a great idea. I'm ready to hit the salvage yards right now!

I'm with Jimkk on this one...I love the idea of re-use, but I think they look kinda junky.

To me, and I'm all for innovative ideas, it's great from a distance, looks cool and fresh, but up close, it's baaaaaaaad.

What's bad for some, is good for others. I like them and the idea. You can always sand and stain them yourselves, if desired.

The only reason anyone claims to like these aesthetically is that they've been drinking the green koolaid. If these were made from scratch and for sale in some store they'd be roundly panned.

Absolutely, positively, the "found object" quality is essential to the appeal. If I'd thought of this myself, I'd adore it; only the distance of having someone else do it first gives me the perspective to mutter about visual clutter and openness to dust.
