Mixing Materials in Kitchen Design: Plykea Spotlight
Kitchen furniture producer Plykea are known for mixing materials and colours to create distinctive residential kitchens. Their projects combine Formica® Laminate, Arpa® and FENIX® surfaces with natural wood veneers, resulting in striking cabinetry, worktops and storage furniture.
Plykea’s concept is simple: customers who have purchased IKEA kitchen cabinets can completely transform the look of their space. By choosing Plykea’s made-to-measure cabinet and cupboard fronts - available in premium natural veneers including oak, ash, douglas fir, beech, maple, sapele and walnut, or a wide selection of contemporary coloured laminates, homeowners can achieve a bespoke finish. Each front is expertly bonded to a birch plywood core for durability and clean, modern detailing.
As Plykea explain:
“Plykea products are made in-house at our London workshop, with a focus on quality and sustainability. The fronts feature a birch plywood core, sourced from an FSC-certified supplier, precision cut by CNC and then hand finished by our highly skilled team.”
