What You Will Learn
For the designers who have access to fully custom cabinet shops, taking off the handcuffs of the industry’s standard of a 24″ base and 12″ upper cabinets will liberate your designs, creativity and create high margin sales. With tailored cabinet solutions, you can cater to the unique needs and preferences of your clients, offering them bespoke storage solutions that truly elevate their spaces.
In this session, join Richard Landon, CMKBD as he explores how to configure base cabinets for maximizing fitted storage.

Don’t let outdated norms hold you back—step into the realm of customization and transform your designs into masterpieces.
Learning Objectives:

- Learn what the “not enough cabinets” syndrome is and how to overcome it.
