The looks we design to
Warm, transitional and built to last: painted and stained hardwoods, simple profiles, brass and bronze hardware, and proportions borrowed from furniture rather than from a catalog. Use the filters to see one kind of room at a time.
These images are illustrations, not photographs of client homes: they show the finishes, details and proportions we design to, so you can point at what you like before we measure. The rooms are the kinds we design and install — kitchens with cabinetry that runs to the ceiling, walk-in closets planned around two people's actual wardrobes, pantries with real counter space, garages that finally hold the cars, laundry rooms with a folding counter at the right height, media walls that hide the wiring, and offices that look like part of the house. When you book a consultation, we bring samples of the same door styles, wood species, finishes and hardware so you can hold them up in your own light.
How much does custom cabinetry cost?
It depends on the linear footage, the wood and finish, the door style and the hardware and accessories inside. Painted maple with simple doors sits at one end; stained white oak with inset doors and full drawer organizers at the other. We do not quote from a range, because a number without a measured room is a guess. The free in-home consultation gets you a real figure.
How long do custom cabinets take?
Design and selections come first and take as long as the decisions do. Once the drawings are approved, the cabinetry is custom built by hand and finished, and installation follows. Larger projects and stained finishes take longer than a single painted run. We give you a written schedule with the quote and tell you as soon as anything changes.
Do you design the project, or do I need my own designer?
We design it. Every project starts with measured drawings and 3D renderings so you can see the room before it is built, and we help you settle wood, finish, hardware and surfaces. If you already work with an interior designer or architect, we are glad to work from their drawings and collaborate on the details.
Do you handle permits, plumbing and electrical?
Yes, through licensed trades we coordinate under one schedule. Plumbing and electrical are done by licensed plumbers and electricians who pull their own trade permits, and we handle the sequencing and the inspections. When walls or drains move, we tell you up front what the permit process in your city or county involves.
What are your cabinets made of?
Plywood boxes, not particleboard, with solid hardwood face frames and doors, or MDF-core panels where a painted finish needs to stay flat through a Tennessee summer. Finishes are catalyzed conversion varnish, sprayed before delivery rather than brushed on site. Hardware is soft-close throughout, with full-extension undermount drawer slides. We are happy to show you a cut-open sample so you can see the construction.
Are your cabinets custom built, or ordered from a catalog?
Our custom cabinetry is built by hand to the measured drawings of your room, not pulled from a factory line in standard sizes, which is why it can be built to an out-of-square wall, an odd ceiling height or a window that is not centered. Stock and semi-custom lines are there when the budget or the calendar calls for them. The crew that designs it is the crew that installs it, so there is one number to call.
What areas do you serve?
Nashville and roughly a fifty-mile radius around it, including Brentwood, Franklin, Belle Meade, Green Hills, Forest Hills, Hendersonville, Mt. Juliet, Nolensville, Murfreesboro, Gallatin, Spring Hill and Thompson's Station. If your home is a little outside that circle, ask, and we will tell you straight whether we can take it on.
How do I get started?
Call (629) 298-8241 or request a free in-home design consultation through this site. We come to the house, measure, look at how the room is used and talk through what you want. From there you receive drawings, renderings and a written quote, and there is no obligation at any point before you approve the design.
