Wedged mortise and tenon joint with walnut detail

Private residence, The Netherlands
2025

Dividing space without closing it off.

Every connection in this cabinet is handcrafted using traditional wedged mortise and tenon joints, beautifully detailed with contrasting walnut wood elements. This time-honored joinery technique represents the pinnacle of woodworking precision, requiring exceptional skill and patience to execute properly. Each joint must be cut with mathematical accuracy to ensure a perfect fit.

Approach

From spatial idea to resolved object.

A commission can begin with an architectural requirement, a functional need or an initial idea. Studio Beeks develops this into a precisely resolved object, considering proportion, material, construction and use as one interconnected system. Direct knowledge of materials and making allows design decisions to be tested and resolved throughout the process.

Development

03

Resolution

Refining dimensions, detailing and technical decisions through testing and modelling.

04

Making

Translating the resolved design into its final material and physical form.
