Transform your kitchen with Custom Cabinet Design

When it comes to revamping your kitchen, custom kitchen cabinets can be a game changer.

Imagine walking into a kitchen that feels like it was designed justo for you, reflecting your style and meeting your needs.

Although custom cabinets is a great tool to maximizing storage and functionality in small spaces, custom cabinet designs are more than just storage solution, they are the heart of your kitchen because is made FOR you.

Why Choose Custom Kitchen Cabinets?

You might be wondering, “Why should I go custom when there are so many off-the-shelf options?” The answer is simple: customization. With custom cabinets, you get to decide every little detail. From the materials used to the style and finish, it’s all about you. You wouldn’t wear clothes off the rack when you can have tailor-made outfits that fit just right, would you? The same goes for your kitchen.

This is too expensive? Of course, but if you can't have a fully customized kitchen right now, at least you can have small customizations that can make a big difference in the functionality of your kitchen.

Let's explore some small customization ideas that you can implement in your kitchen renovation.

Pocket cabinet door

Pocket cabinet doors offer a sleek and modern solution for small spaces where traditional swinging doors may not be feasible.

By sliding seamlessly into the cabinet frame, pocket doors eliminate the need for clearance space required by swinging doors, making them ideal for compact kitchens or areas with limited room to spare.

Personalizing width of cabinets

Custom cabinet designs aim to maximize every inch of available space, so you can fill gaps by utilizing every inch efficiently. By customizing the width of the closet, you will have solutions that adapt perfectly to any layout, regardless of if you have an oddly shaped room.

Whether it's creating storage solutions for awkward corners or designing cabinets that blend seamlessly with the overall aesthetic of the space, you will ensure that no space is wasted.

As pictured above, the kitchen design left a 5” wide gap between the stove/microwave and the door trim. We filled this gap with a custom spice cabinet and a open-wall cabinet storage shelf. And right below you see a tall and wall, open cabinet with shelves and in the center image an oddly shaped wall filled with custom cabinets.

Storage bench

Each home has unique storage needs and a seating-bench offers the flexibility to create personalized solutions with utility.

In the kitchen, a storage bench can serve multiple purposes, from providing extra seating for casual meal or hosting a dinner party to offering convenient storage solutions.

Add style and color to your kitchen with cushions or upholstery on the bench, providing a comfortable and nifty seating solution for your kitchen.

In the photos below you can see some of the custom benches we have made.
