Creative Storage Solutions for Every Room 

Cabinetry is more than a place to stash your stuff. When thoughtfully designed, it becomes one of the most important tools for how your home looks, feels, and functions. Whether it’s hiding countertop clutter in the kitchen, organizing essentials in the bath, or creating a welcoming drop zone in the mudroom, custom cabinetry helps your home work better and look great doing it. 

At Wise Design & Remodel, cabinetry is never an afterthought. It’s one of the first things we consider when designing a space, because it plays such a central role in how a room performs. Here are some of the most impactful ways to use custom cabinetry to simplify and elevate your daily routines. 

Kitchen Cabinetry: Smart Storage Where You Need It Most 

A well-designed kitchen needs more than just style. It needs storage that works intuitively for the way you cook, entertain, and live. We incorporate a variety of clever solutions that make daily tasks easier and more enjoyable, including: 

  • Pull-out spice racks near the stove so everything is within reach when cooking 

  • Tray dividers for baking sheets and cutting boards to stay upright and organized 

  • Deep drawers for pots and pans that eliminate the need to dig through dark cabinets 

  • Built-in garbage and recycling centers that keep waste out of sight 

  • Corner turnstyle cabinets (Lazy Susans) to make use of every inch of space 

  • Appliance garages to tuck away toasters, coffee makers, or mixers without sacrificing counter space 

These features are carefully planned during the design phase and built to fit your exact needs. We use high-quality cabinet lines like Decor Cabinets, known for their flexible configurations and beautiful craftsmanship, and Zonavita, a sleek, European-inspired option perfect for modern homes. 

Looking for ways to make a small kitchen feel larger? Custom cabinetry can incorporate open shelving, glass front doors, or vertical pull-outs that maximize storage while keeping the space feeling light and open.

Bathroom Cabinetry: Beauty Meets Utility 

Bathrooms may be smaller, but they still require thoughtful storage. We help clients make the most of every square inch with cabinetry that keeps things tidy without sacrificing style. 

Popular solutions include: 

  • Floating vanities that visually open up the room and make cleaning a breeze 

  • Pull-out drawers with custom dividers for makeup, toiletries, and grooming tools 

  • Tall linen towers for towels, cleaning products, or overflow storage 

  • Hidden hampers built into cabinetry for a streamlined look 

We also love integrating charging drawers for electric toothbrushes or razors, and pull-out shelves under sinks for better access to cleaning products and backups. These little conveniences can dramatically improve how a space feels to use. 

We design these elements to blend seamlessly into your bathroom aesthetic whether that means classic painted cabinetry with polished hardware, or minimalist flat-panel doors with integrated pulls.

Mudroom and Entry Cabinetry: Keeping Chaos Contained 

For many families, the mudroom or entry is where clutter begins. We help organize this high-traffic area with: 

  • Cubbies or lockers for each family member 

  • Hooks and bins for jackets, backpacks, and sports gear 

  • Built-in benches with lift-up storage for shoes and seasonal items 

  • Overhead cabinets to stow away lesser-used gear like camping supplies or off-season decor 

Looking to make your mudroom work double duty? We often build in additional cabinets for laundry essentials, pet supplies, or household tools. A drop zone with drawers for mail, chargers, and keys can also help keep the rest of your home tidy. 

The result is a space that not only looks polished but keeps your day running more smoothly. And because everything is custom-built, we make sure it fits your space and your routine perfectly.

Designed to Fit You 

No two homes are alike, and your cabinetry shouldn’t be either. Our design-build process ensures that every cabinet, drawer, and shelf is designed around your life. Because we work as one integrated team from concept to construction nothing gets lost in translation. Our in-house designers and carpenters collaborate closely, making sure every inch of cabinetry is optimized for performance and beauty. 

We also know that it's not just about how much storage you have, but how accessible and enjoyable it is to use. That’s why we focus on features like soft-close hardware, drawer lighting, and touch-latch technology to elevate even the smallest interactions in your day.
