Corner Cabinet Hinge Question

As I am getting closer to the end of my kitchen project, I am currently
working on the uppers and have just completed the inside corner cabinet. I
am starting to think about hinges for this two piece door for this unit. As
the unit is a right angle with one door slab will be 12" +/- and the other
14" +/-. When closed will form a 90 degree angle with a full overlay of one
slab to the other, when opened I would like this overlay to be flexible or
movable. I was considering some type of a box type concealed hinge, other
suggestions?

The door(s) will be attached to the face frame with a 1" overlay hinge,
which due to weight of the slabs should have at least 4 hinges (cabinet
height is 36")
