Design with a Difference
Our unique and effective approach to kitchen design has created more than just rooms—it has created a reputation for exquisite design and exceptional service. A family-owned business since 1981, we understand how important the kitchen is in your home.
Our Process
Owner Mark T. White, CMKBD, a native of Annapolis, developed the Interactive Design Process to ensure that comfort, beauty and function merge successfully in your remodeling or new construction experience. By using numerous sketches to illustrate design possibilities, our clients are able to identify features that fit their lifestyle. The preferred design elements are then combined into the best plan for the project.
