As a fabricator myself, I can tell you that there is nothing inherently cheap about veneer. Unfortunately it has gotten a bad name because it is often used as a substitute for solid wood and mounted on a cheap substraight, like particle board. The pieces shown above are clearly not not in that category. From the quality of the work shown, the fabricator would certainly be capable of matching the veneer around the corners if that was what s/he desired. The cabinets are all about surface and surface pattern, and it appears to me that the choices made were intentional. Remy I beg to differ.

The fabricators inability to match veneers around corners cheapens the entire look. Although very interesting conceptually I would prefer to Not know thast I was looking at a veneer.

If so, that's a very interesting veneer. Are those rough saw textures in the last cabinet? If so, that’s a very interesting veneer.
