The rich walnut tones add warmth and a natural element, balancing the dark cabinetry with a touch of organic elegance. This combination creates a visually stunning and inviting kitchen space.

Functional and Stylish Hardware Choices
No kitchen is complete without the right hardware. The LERHYTTAN kitchen cabinets are fitted with ENERYDA kitchen handles, which offer a classic yet sturdy grip. The traditional design of these handles enhances the timeless appeal of the cabinets while ensuring practicality and durability.

The LERHYTTAN black stained kitchen is equipped with SMAKSAK oven and FOKUSERA wall-mounted extractor hood to ensure a seamless cooking experience. The SMAKSAK oven offers advanced cooking technology, making meal preparation more efficient, while the FOKUSERA extractor hood effectively removes smoke and odors, maintaining a fresh kitchen environment.

Optimized Storage with HULTARP Wall Solutions
