FROM THE FOREST · BUILD SPECIAL #01 · 16 OCTOBER 2026

THE BUILD HAS BEGUN.

Today we build a cabinet. Tomorrow a world will grow here.

KA’AETÉ has taken its first real construction step. The white compact-HPL base panel is now fitted to the original cabinet. Here are four authentic build photos — no AI alterations to the cabinet.

The HPL panel was pre-drilled with a 5 mm HSS metal drill bit, the wooden frame with a 3 mm wood bit, and fixed with black 4 × 40 mm stainless-steel screws.

This isn’t furniture restoration. The rough wooden edges will disappear behind the Alupanel. We are building a rainforest inside this cabinet. 🌿
