Tension | Relief

This cabinet explores the dynamic interplay between tension and traditional rectilinear forms. A black "void" spans the cabinet's exterior, bridged by sleek door handles that appear to draw the edges inward, creating a sense of strain and anticipation.

Opening the first door reveals your prized bottle of whiskey. Opening the door completely triggers dramatic uplighting that transforms the bottle into a luminous focal point against a second, black void. A curved center divider and drawer box partially expose themselves, sparking curiosity and encouraging further discovery.

Fully opening the cabinet reveals crystal rocks glasses and a precision-crafted, piston-fit dovetail drawer. The drawer's intentionally oversized proportions create visual tension, appearing forced into its space; it bends the center divider into flowing curves that echo the door panels' graceful lines.

A close examination reveals continuous grain across the dovetail drawer front, as well as the bottle platform, showcasing meticulous craftsmanship. This discovery transforms the cabinet from furniture into an invitation, prompting the ritual of pouring neat whiskey while the day's tensions dissolve into the evening's embrace.
