Our showrooms will be closed October 5th-7th to join the Decor Cabinets team for Academy XP. 🎊

XP is a half-week event where we get to connect with industry partners to learn and grow in all things cabinetry and design!

We’ll return to normal hours on October 8th.

The primary bath and walk-in closet at Project Elden keep that same warm, inviting feel flowing through the home, with rich Alder cabinetry and Taj Mahal countertops tying everything together.

The spaces feel right at home with the rest of the house, with a touch of their own personality. 🐒

If a kitchen could have a season, we think Project Legacy Oaks would be an Autumn. 🍂

There’s something about this time of year that makes a warm, inviting kitchen feel even more like the heart of the home. With its warm tones, natural textures and space for holiday hosting, this one does captures the cozy season beautifully.

Say hello to our latest obsession: the sleek, flush-mounted outlet that practically disappears into the surface. prado

Our clients have been loving how seamlessly these blend into backsplashes, mirror glass, island columns, and just about anywhere else you can think of! It’s one of those small details that makes a surprisingly big difference in any space.
Would you choose this detail for your space?

Dream kitchen → install day → delivery day.

This dream kitchen didn’t happen overnight. Swipe to rewind, from the final space all the way back to delivery day.
We love sharing the whole process, not just the pretty after shot. Every step of a renovation (no matter how long the process can feel) is part of the journey to a kitchen you’ll love!

A kitchen designed to make the most of every corner, without sacrificing the things that make it feel like home.

Welcome to Project Olive! A charming Charleswood kitchen renovation where thoughtful storage, warm neutrals and a few beautiful details came together to completely transform the space.

The goal from the start was to maximize storage and create dedicated zones throughout the kitchen, while keeping the overall palette neutral enough to stand the test of time. Reeded glass adds a little visual interest and texture, while warm tones and natural light keep the space feeling bright and inviting.

And if you swipe all the way to the end, you’ll get to meet the project’s namesake! 🐶

Combining wood and painted cabinetry has been a popular kitchen design choice for years, and for good reason! The contrast between natural wood and painted finishes adds warmth, depth, and a custom feel while remaining timeless.

Here are some of our favourite ways to mix the two. →

1 | Split between base cabinets and uppers

A classic approach is pairing wood base cabinets with painted uppers for a balanced, open feel. Wood can also be used on the island while keeping the perimeter cabinetry painted, creating a warm focal point.

2 | Add wood accents

Smaller details like floating shelves, range hoods, or open shelving can introduce warmth without committing to a full two-tone kitchen. Wood accents can also tie in beautifully with existing elements like beams, furniture, or trim.

3 | Feature wood inside glass cabinets

Wood interiors or shelving inside painted glass-door cabinets create a subtle but impactful contrast. Add interior lighting and styled dishware to highlight the warmth and detail.

4 | Frame the kitchen with wood

Use wood on tall cabinetry, pantry walls, refrigerator surrounds, or coffee bars to visually anchor the space. This creates a sophisticated focal point while allowing painted cabinetry to remain the main feature.

5 | Mix textures and finishes

Combining natural wood grain with smooth painted finishes adds depth and visual interest. Textured tile, natural stone, and subtle wall treatments can further layer the space while keeping the overall look cohesive.

Wood and painted cabinetry create a flexible foundation that can evolve with your home. Thoughtfully chosen finishes can be refreshed over time through changes to hardware, lighting, decor, and styling, allowing the kitchen to feel current without needing a full renovation.

The key is choosing finishes that complement one another and feel authentic to your home and personal style. When thoughtfully combined, wood and painted cabinetry create a kitchen that feels custom, welcoming, and timeless.

We always love the opportunity to work with our clients on spaces throughout the home, beyond the kitchen and bathroom. At Project Elden, these simple details added extra character and function to this beautifully designed sunroom by Stephanie Bockstael Design
