Desi McAlister Wins Cabico's Design of the Month Contest

This kitchen beautifully displays Cabico's custom versatility by combining frameless and inset construction seamlessly into the same kitchen in an open, artful design. The design of the hood and the island uniquely contributed to the openness and flow of the entire project and allowed the use of a heart shaped butcher block top. The door style used was 770/4/H in Cherry and the finish is Mohagany with Black Glaze and SWH6270 for the island and accent pieces all with 10% sheen.

Excerpts from New Homes and Ideas, Fall 2007 Issue

“With design help from Kitchen & Bath Galleries, Michael Powell, president of Archwood Building Company, created a whole new kitchen for this 1956 inside-the-beltline home.”

“Desi McAlister, senior designer at Kitchen & Bath Galleries, describes this kitchen remodel as a dream job…‘Desi was able to perfectly interpret my ideas, my style’, says [client] Eder. ‘She had all of the knowledge and expertise to translate my vision into this beautiful and functional reality.’”

“Suppliers such as Kitchen & Bath Galleries sell a lot more than product these days. They sell services from planning and purchasing to installation. Beyond that, it’s the reputation of the designer that often determines which store gets the sale. Desi  McAlister, of Kitchen & Bath Galleries, helps clients take their design ideas from dreams  to reality.”
