Welcome to The Kitchen Edit
Hi, Los Angeles 👋
Welcome to The Kitchen Edit, our monthly take on the spaces, ideas, and people shaping how Los Angeles lives.
We’re Cabinet IQ, a kitchen design studio specializing in cabinetry and countertops for homeowners and the trade. From the initial concept through material selection and ordering, we bring design expertise, exceptional products, and a highly collaborative approach to every project.
Consider us your kitchen people. Now, let’s get into it.
A Better Way to Kitchen
Great kitchens don’t happen in isolation. We work alongside homeowners, interior designers, architects, and builders to bring a vision to life, creating a kitchen that looks incredible, functions beautifully, and is tailored to the project's realities.
Our role goes far beyond cabinetry. We bring a design eye, kitchen expertise, and a point of view that makes the entire project stronger.
From the Studio: Let the Architecture Lead
Our latest client project takes us to a Downtown LA loft with raw concrete, expansive windows, and plenty of personality before we ever touched it.
The answer wasn’t to compete with the architecture. It was to design a kitchen that belonged within it.
A restrained palette softens the industrial shell. Clean cabinetry brings structure to the open floor plan, plus an oversized 11’ island turns the kitchen into the natural center of the home.
Every decision has a job to do. Nothing is there because it’s trending.
Design is set. Next: bringing it to life.
Around Town: Cabinet IQ Summer Design Event
100+ designers, architects, builders, and industry leaders. One incredible night in Beverly Hills.
Together with Modern Luxury Magazine and Gaggenau, we brought LA’s design community together to meet, exchange ideas, and build relationships that extend far beyond one evening.
Because the best projects start with the right people in the room. Missed this one? Don’t worry. We’re just getting started. 👀
Let’s Create Together
Whether you're renovating your own home or designing for a client, let’s create something exceptional together.
