Tenon Kitchen by KongaCph: A Seamless Fusion of Craft and Function

Danish architect Kristian Ahlmark has designed a kitchen unit for the Lithuanian brand KongaCph, crafted from a single oak log to showcase the natural beauty of the material.

The Tenon kitchen is defined by its tenon-mortise joinery, adopting the traditional carpentry technique to create a clean, modern design, which Ahlmark has also integrated into his own home.

Instead of varnishes or lacquers, Tenon is finished with natural oils to enrich the grain and texture of the wood while embracing occasional cracks.

“These imperfections become defining characteristics, creating a kitchen with a unique personality and warmth,” Kongacph said.

The sturdy, timeless kitchen was designed to “last for generations”, with a focus on functionality as well as beauty.

With this aim, Kongacph created bespoke drawer insets that can be tailored to store utensils, spices, cookware or other paraphernalia, depending on the organisational needs of the user.
