When you step inside IKEA's wardrobe displays, one thing becomes clear: the PAX system is designed to give you structure and order. As you can see in this example, every shelf, drawer and rail has its place – making it easy to imagine how it would look in your own home.
The Warm Elegance of an Oak Kitchen

There is something timeless about oak in the kitchen, a natural beauty that adds warmth, texture and depth. In this photo series, we explore a stunning oak kitchen that perfectly blends craftsmanship, functionality and modern style. Mauritz has filmed this kitchen in a showroom, capturing every inspiring detail.

Natural Wood, Natural Charm
The oak cabinets set the tone, bringing a rich yet soft character to the space. Their light grain and warm tones make the kitchen feel welcoming and grounded. With thoughtful detailing like matte black handles and matching black countertops, the design strikes a beautiful balance between rustic charm and contemporary elegance.

Smart Storage Solutions
Inside the cabinets and drawers, smart storage takes center stage. Deep drawers with sleek organizers, dedicated spaces for wine bottles and clever pull-out racks maximize every inch of space. These details not only make the kitchen more efficient but also elevate the overall sense of order and calm.


Stunning Surfaces and Fixtures
The dark countertop contrasts beautifully with the oak wood, adding sophistication and a modern touch. The matte black sink and faucet integrate seamlessly, providing both function and style. Above, the brick-style backsplash softens the look, adding texture and a touch of urban charm.


A Dining Space to Gather
At the heart of the room, a striking dining table becomes a true centerpiece. The glass top reveals intricate wood detailing beneath, adding layers of visual interest. Surrounded by plush chairs and lit by a bold pendant fixture, this area is designed for conversation, connection and shared meals.

Bringing It All Together
This oak kitchen is more than just a place to cook. It is a celebration of natural materials, thoughtful design and everyday beauty. Every detail, from the layout to the finishes, contributes to a space that feels both practical and inspiring. Whether you are planning a full kitchen remodel or just looking for fresh ideas, this design offers plenty of inspiration to spark your creativity.
