Yeah... I was trying to figure out what he was pointing to, and was like.. oh, the Firefox website... went there and was pretty uninspired by the design, at least in desktop.
In a recent project the countertop contractor digitally measured the walls, even ones that look square weren't, not a 90 degree corner to be found! You should build cabinets as squared boxes and level them when installing. The trim work that surrounds it will hide gaps, etc.
Generally if there is space because of odd angled walls there really isn't any advantage to trying to use it. You're talking square inches of drawer/cabinet space, it really doesn't matter as far as usable space is concerned. Its a huge hassle to try and build cabinets that are not square - things like how do you screw/nail parts and not have the screw/nail blow out a finished side? It can be done, but should it?
I have not opened up that can of worms yet, but have been thinking more about tapers and other non-rectilinear forms. Longer-term I very much want to support a "fill this space" mode for built-ins.
One other note, is there a way to see the bay map larger? I am trying to see the height between shelves and the measurement does not show because there is not enough space for it.
You can also visualize the measurements between shelves by clicking 'Show Sizes' on the 3d scene options and having a bay selected. Let me know if that helps.
P.S. I showed this to a friend, and he asked if we could mock something up, export the dxf, and send it to a cut shop... you could end up with your own flatpack pipeline.
I previously added dxf and ruby export as part of validation efforts with capability to import into SketchUp Pro and other CAD. This is available in the Reference Rail by clicking `All Exports` or scrolling down to the design interchange section in the rail.
They seem like a solid company
