Seams on the kitchen and bathroom furniture – a necessary evil, or an opportunity?
When you’re imagining the ideal kitchen or bathroom furniture, what is the first criteria that flashes into your mind?
It should be perfect in every meaning.
But can we reach perfection, or will we bump into unavoidable limits, due to the physical dimensions and attributes of the materials?
To be more accurate: can we design a set of kitchen or bathroom furniture without seams, or is it impossible?
And to go even further: should we do so, or can we make an advantage out of something that we can’t influence?
Because in reality, no matter how hard you try, no kitchen or bathroom furniture set can be made without any seams.
But don’t worry, this is not a defeat, this is an opportunity!
Why do we need seaming?
There is something that always limits the planning and designing of a set of furniture: the dimensions of the room.
If it’s long, or if you’d like the corners to be included as well, then you should make peace with the thought of seams on the countertops.
The reason is quite simple: there is no slab large enough, neither wood nor stone, that can cover the whole set of cabinets by itself.
And even if there was, it would be a challenging task to cut, polish, transport and install a countertop in that size without the risk of damage.
So, what is the obvious solution?
We have to produce it in smaller pieces, and place the adjacent ones as tightly as possible.
And that is how the seams are formed.
Can we use the seams creatively?
The good news is, the answer to the question is definitely yes, with a pinch of creativity a seam can mean a great possibility to make your set of furniture even better!
And this is available with wooden and stone countertops as well!
Because both these materials have something in common: the vivid textures and patterns, which can be used as a decorative element.
If you play a bit with the directions, these natural (or artificial) patterns placed next to each other can give an astonishing, mind blowing combination that could easily be the highlight of the room!
This is especially true in the case of exotic woods and stones, like marble, but if you are looking for something more affordable, porcelain countertops offer almost the same condition, but without all the fuss.
And don’t worry about the seams themselves, the minimal gap between the pieces can be sealed easily!
