Every homeowner knows that cabinets are more than just a place to store your belongings. They play a significant role not only in how your home looks and feels, but also in how it functions. That?s why cabinetry should be integral to the design process of a home?as it is in every Turkel Design home. Well-designed cabinetry is anything but an afterthought. It works interdependently with factors such as the floorplan, materials, and position on the land to shape the beauty and livability of a home.
Using the highest-quality woods, we design inspired cabinetry solutions for any space in a home. Here are three creative cabinetry ideas from Turkel Design homes that make life a little bit easier?and more beautiful.
At Your Fingertips
Ample storage is necessary for any bathroom. In this primary en-suite, the custom cantilevered oak double sink vanity fulfills that goal. Meanwhile, the reflection of the forest view in the equally wide mirror contributes to the room?s feeling of spaciousness. A favorite touch is the dedicated slot for bath towels, positioned within easy reach of the freestanding tub. Through thoughtful design, the cabinetry becomes a crucial contributor to the bathroom?s sense of sanctuary.
Accessible to All
At first glance, it?s easy to see how natural light from the clerestory windows allows the meticulously designed cabinetry in this large, open kitchen to shine. What may not be as immediately obvious is that this kitchen was designed to be fully accessible to wheelchair users. Cabinets were positioned at a reachable height, with accessible pulls of a shape that?s easy to grasp, while the multi-level island provides work surfaces for all users.

Not Just by the Book
Designed to capture views of the forest beyond the perimeter of its rural site, this home?s custom breakfast nook is a special place to relax and reflect at any time of day. In fact, it is an ideal spot to read a book, solve a puzzle, play a board game, or catch up with friends. The custom shelving, made from rich, warm walnut, provides storage for whatever you may want to help pass the time.

Dedicated Design
At Turkel Design, we have dedicated team members who work closely with homeowners to devise beautiful, creative solutions to meet their casework needs. Using the predictability of prefabrication, we can make sure that the built product is as elegant as the vision. By including cabinetry throughout our interactive design process, we offer opportunities for homeowners to visualize their choice of features, materials, and finishes so that we can refine them along the way. The result is cabinetry that fits seamlessly into the owner?s vision of their completed home.
