In the world of high-end home design, few elements make as profound an impact as luxury custom cabinetry—especially in kitchens and bathrooms, the two spaces that consistently draw the eye of discerning homebuyers. More than just storage, expertly crafted cabinetry brings beauty, functionality, and long-term value to your living space.

Last month, we had the pleasure of hosting a dynamic and insightful panel, “Designing for Luxury in 2025 and Beyond,” as part of Market Day 2025 at our showroom in the A&D Building in New York City. The room was packed with industry professionals all eager to explore the future of luxury interiors.

Last month, Bakes & Kropp proudly hosted “The Art of the Build” at our West Palm Beach showroom. We welcomed an incredible group of interior designers, architects, and luxury contractors to celebrate the creativity, precision, and collaboration that define the world of high-end kitchen design.

What sets luxury cabinetry apart is the special touches—subtle, refined choices that make a lasting impact on daily living. Bakes & Kropp believes the inside of your cabinetry should be as beautiful and functional as the outside. That’s why we offer a curated collection of premium drawer inserts and accessories designed to enhance organization, maximize efficiency, and bring effortless elegance to every room in your home.

On Wednesday, May 29, the Bakes & Kropp New York City showroom played host to a festive start to the summer building season, as we partnered with Carlisle Wide Plank Floors for “NYC 2025 Summer Kickoff,” our post-Memorial Day builders bash.

Designer Bob Bakes of Bakes & Kropp continues to refine his focus and expand his creative vision.

Practicality and comfort define Midwestern living, with a preference for natural materials and a welcoming, lived-in feel. For this remodel, the clients envisioned a space that balanced style and functionality. Inspired by a visit to a Bakes & Kropp showroom, they teamed up with Senior Designer Justin Sharer to bring their dream kitchen to life.

In a home nestled in the serene enclave of Amagansett, New York, we undertook a remarkable kitchen transformation. Blending elegance with performance, our senior designer beautifully executed the homeowners’ clear vision: a tasteful, welcoming space for gatherings and shared moments that balances their daily culinary needs. With a transitional-leaning design, this East Coast kitchen bridges the gap between timeless charm and modern efficiency.

Everyone craves a spacious kitchen for cooking and entertaining, and the Bakes & Kropp design team specializes in balancing openness with comfort in these sometimes vacuous areas. When our client in Manalapan, a town in Palm Beach County, approached us for a remodel, it was the perfect opportunity to demonstrate our expertise, transforming a large, sun-filled space into a stylish and inviting contemporary kitchen.

Last week, Bakes & Kropp Fine Cabinetry hosted a unique evening that transported over 150 guests straight to the heart of Italy—without ever leaving our West Palm Beach showroom. “A Taste of Italy” wasn’t just a cocktail party; it was an immersive experience that blended luxury design, exquisite Italian flavors, and a vibrant celebration of community.

At Bakes & Kropp, we believe that truly understanding our clients' lifestyles is essential to creating kitchens that seamlessly integrate into their daily routines and meet their unique needs. So when our client, a family in Great Neck, NY, came to us after discovering a newfound love of cooking, we knew their kitchen would have to be versatile, efficient, and personalized.

Reflecting upon our project portfolio from the past year, it’s been inspiring to see how homeowners have been prioritizing both style and practicality in their spaces. As 2024 unfolded, the emphasis on functionality and aesthetics became a defining hallmark of the year, and we’re excited to see how these trends will evolve in the year ahead.

When designing a kitchen, an often overlooked yet crucial element is lighting design. The right lighting can transform a kitchen into a cooking and entertaining haven. With so many options available, though, it can be difficult to know where to begin. At Bakes & Kropp, we prefer a layered approach—utilizing various light sources to create a multifaceted, functional environment.

Our West Palm Beach showroom recently played host to a truly unforgettable evening: “Shaken Not Stirred.” This exclusive joint event, in collaboration with Build Magazine and Aston Martin, brought together top industry professionals for an evening of great conversation, delicious food and undeniable style.

At Bakes & Kropp, we love collaborating with industry professionals—interior designers, architects, and home developers—to help realize clients’ dream kitchens. It’s even more special when it’s the designer's own personal space. Case in point: this home refresh with interior designer Christina Magrans in the Water Mill hamlet of Southampton.

On a memorable evening at the A&D Building, Bakes & Kropp Fine Cabinetry, in collaboration with Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Cove, hosted a successful tasting event, “Craft Ale & Caviar.” The night was a celebration of luxury design, exceptional craftsmanship, and culinary excellence, attracting a packed house filled with great energy and excitement.

While we may still be in the early days of fall, now is the ideal moment to start thinking about a kitchen renovation that can be completed by spring. Planning ahead not only allows for a smoother process but also ensures that your kitchen is ready to shine when the weather warms up.

We’re thrilled to be named in the latest issue of Modern Luxury Palm Beach as the ‘Best Kitchen’  destination in its “Ultimate Guide to Luxury Living in the Palm Beaches.”
