Those are almost exactly the ones I used.
He used butt joints on his drawers. I rabbetted the perimeter of the drawer bottoms and the ends of the drawer sides, then did matching grooves in the fronts, backs and drawer sides. The drawers when assembled can hold together without glue, but final assembly is with white glue. A rachet strap clamps while the glue dries.
I think setting up the table saw to cut the rabbetts and grooves was my favorite part of the build.
