The object
Piet Hein Eek designed the Classic Cupboard in Scrapwood, establishing reclaimed boards and their wear as the cabinet’s aesthetic material rather than concealed waste. Eek’s current product page documents continuing studio production, while a March 2025 interview records his Paris pop-up and active design brand.
