Your Guide to Cabinet Front Styles
understanding the different styles and getting inspired
Cabinetry is millwork, so like all other millwork in your home, the style of it should reflect the architectural style of the home for a timeless, cohesive look. And the best part is: you don’t have to stick to just one. In fact, we often prefer a mix. Combining a few different styles can make a kitchen feel more layered, intentional, and custom.
In this article we’re sharing the different cabinet styles we most frequently use and providing a LOT of cabinetry inspiration from our own projects and others we are inspired by.

Question for you about the island you designed with the drawers and stools. Can you please tell me the dimensions you used for height of island/drawer dimensions/floor to bottom distance versus height of the counter stool? I’d love to do this but want to make sure we get the proportions right so it feels right when seated (not too low or legs not too cramped). Thank you!!
