Custom Kitchens designed, built and installed for Southlake — custom houses where the cabinetry is drawn before the walls are closed. Our Dallas showroom is around forty-five minutes east.
Texas kitchens are big, open and usually visible from a double-height living space, which changes the proportions that work. Cabinetry drawn to look right at arm's length reads as fussy from thirty feet away, so runs get simpler and taller and the detail moves into the materials. The climate matters too: heated winters and air-conditioned summers swing the indoor humidity a long way, so solid timber doors and panels are detailed to move rather than fixed rigid and left to crack.
Southlake is a custom-build market, so we are often working with an architect and a builder rather than with a finished house. That is the best case: the cabinetry gets drawn while the walls and services can still move.
The houses are big enough that the cabinetry package covers a dozen rooms. Keeping one material and hardware language across all of them is what makes a house of that size read as designed rather than assembled.
Outdoor living is used most of the year here, and covered outdoor kitchens are a normal part of the package rather than an extra.
The specification below is the same whether the job is in Southlake or anywhere else we work — it is how we build, not what we build for the market.
A custom kitchen is not a better-made version of a stock one — it is a different process. The plan is drawn around how the room is actually used and what appliances are going in it, and the cabinetry is then made to that drawing. Nothing is sized to a catalogue module, which is why a custom kitchen fits a room that stock cabinetry can only approximate.
The grain match approved on a sample is the grain match delivered, because the same shop sprays every panel in the run.
Every cutout, clearance and ventilation run comes from the appliance list, so we ask for it at the first meeting rather than at the end.
Cabinet widths follow the plan. There are no filler panels covering the difference between a catalogue size and the wall.

We work throughout Southlake, including Carillon, Timarron, Coventry Manor, Clariden Ranch and Southlake Town Square. The housing here is large custom houses on generous lots, most built since the 1990s and specified individually rather than to a builder standard, and the cabinetry is specified for it rather than to a national standard.
Our Dallas showroom is around forty-five minutes east. The showroom is at 17304 Preston Rd, Suite 800. Come and see the materials in person, or send the drawings and we will price the job room by room.
Every project is photographed room by room with the materials and the detailing listed, so you can see how a job like this is actually put together before you commit to one.

You can also search every finish we specify and every appliance we design around.
One shop draws, finishes and installs all of it, which is why the closet matches the kitchen and there is one number to call when something needs adjusting.
