Where every project starts
Cabinets create space so everything has a place. Before we talk about door styles or paint colors, we work out how the room needs to function — what goes where, how far you walk between things, what you reach for every day.
That order matters. A kitchen designed around a beautiful island that blocks the dishwasher is a kitchen you fight with every morning. Get the layout right and the finishes have something to sit on.
Room by room
The room that carries the most storage and takes the most abuse. Layout comes first — where things live, how far you walk between them, what you reach for daily — then door style, finish, and hardware.
Vanity storage is usually an afterthought, and it shouldn’t be. Drawer layout, outlet placement, and the height of everything get decided before finishes.
The rooms nobody photographs and everybody uses. Done right, they absorb the clutter that would otherwise end up on your kitchen counter.
Built-ins, trim, and the detail work that makes a house feel finished. Designed to match the age and character of the home rather than fight it.
“Liz transformed our entire home — kitchen, four bathrooms, laundry room and butler’s pantry — with incredible attention to detail and thoughtful design. The quality of her cabinetry is matched only by the care she puts into every design decision.”

How we work
I want to see how you actually use the room — where things pile up, what never gets opened, which drawer you reach for twenty times a day.
Layout and storage before finishes. A beautiful kitchen that doesn’t work is just an expensive kitchen.
Door style, paint or stain, counter pairing, and hardware. I bring options that fit the house and the budget.
Drawings, orders, schedules, and the details that come up mid-install.
Questions
No — I design them and manage the process. Fabrication and installation are handled by trusted cabinet makers and installers, and I coordinate the drawings, selections, and schedule so the finished work matches the design.
Yes. A lot of my work is exactly that — giving builders a simple, organized selections package so the project keeps moving and the finish decisions are already made.
That’s fine. Plenty of projects start as one kitchen or one bath. Some stay that way and some grow into the whole house.
Earlier than most people think. Cabinet layout affects plumbing, electrical, and appliance decisions, so the sooner the layout is settled the fewer expensive changes come later.
Tell me a little about the room and what isn’t working. I’ll get back to you to set up a consultation.
