How much they could have possibly saved, considering also the expensive skilled labor to install it? £100 on a £2000 kitchen?
You might be surprised. Materials costs have skyrocketed since the pandemic. (I’m in the trades, not just talking out my ass)
How to ruin the value of your kitchen with one easy step.
It’s a doom 1 kitchen. Who can see the hidden door?!
Iddqd
idspispopd and we don’t need doors
textures haven’t fully loaded yet
im feeling splintery
Ouch, right in the eyeballs
I actually think that it looks alright! I wouldn’t pay extra for it though
Looks like someone tried to go for an industrial look but didn’t get it quite right
This could work as an aesthetic choice but you’d have to finish it really well in order for it to last and for you to be able to keep it clean. Buying normal cupboards would probably be easier and cheaper.
the longer the stove’s in use the more burned grease droplets and soot will soak into the boards around it. Horrible idea.
Doesn’t that board have hella binders and toxic shit? Why would you want that anywhere near your food??
Why would you want it near … … … anything?
What the fuck is wrong with us?
There are different versions for interior and exterior use, using different types of glue. At least OSB/0 and OSB/1 can be used for internal applications and are considered safe. Not that I would trust a landlord doing this to select the correct board type, especially since the safe variants might have some issues with the humidity exposure in a kitchen.
But there still are many cases for using OSB indoors, e.g. behind drywall to give it some more strength (instead of more expensive plywood). Wouldn’t want to leave it exposed in a kitchen though, it’ll get messy if it’s not properly treated, and in the picture it doesn’t seem to be.
I don’t know if it’s different now, but when I studies cabinetmaking we were told that that shit outgasses urea formaldehyde for years. I wouldn’t want that in my home.
Going for that 7DTD look…
Now cover it in denim!
It’s got good bones
It’s gaudy like Shaker Camouflage.
who doesn’t love the scent of formaldehyde in the morning!
I just about died as a baby from formaldehyde poisoning. The brand new house was too air tight.
The combination woth the awful tiles plus the non-matching color of the floor … Ooof.
