Custom cabinets are the work here. On its Houzz profile, Designed Living says it works one on one with clients to design, build and install cabinetry, and describes a kitchen showroom and home center for coordinating cabinetry, counter tops, flooring and lighting. A 2025 customer said Abe built and installed Shaker-style cabinets in natural birch with knots. That 2025 customer also said Abe helped arrange their kitchen layout, from appliance location to cabinet placement, and described soft-close cabinets and drawers, lazy-susans in the corner cabinets and a rotate-out and slide-out shelving system next to the dishwasher. A 2022 customer strongly recommended the cabinet shop. On Google it holds 4.8 stars from 4 ratings, and Houzz lists custom cabinetry, granite, slate and quartz counter tops, flooring and lighting among its services.
You will not find better cabinets, a better installation, at a better price, or a better person to work with on your kitchen layout and cabinet designs than Abe at Designed Living. Abe built and installed the Shaker style in natural birch with knots and they came out absolutely stunning. Smooth, tight, sturdy and straight and I have to say that the knots really 'pop' with the finish giving the cabinets character and depth! From our first meeting with Abe he provided extremely valuable insight in helping to arrange our kitchen layout for the most ergonomic and smart setup, from appliance location, to cabinet features, style, and cabinet placement. He made us drawers where the top drawer is shallow for utensils, but the bottom 2 drawers are deeper for things like pans, bowls, etc. All cabinets & drawers are soft close, and quiet! The corner cabinets have lazy-susans and one of the the bottom cabinets next to the dishwasher has a really unique rotate out and slide out shelving system - without this you'd have to be on your hands and knees digging into the far back corner. Skip the big-box stores and go right to Abe at Designed living for custom cabinets and you will be more than happy that you did.
The finest cabinet shop I have ever worked with. Strongly recommended.
