Here at Remodelista, we are eternally on the hunt for thoughtfully designed kitchens stocked with fresh ideas. The spaces that meet those qualifications tend to fall under three categories: entirely personalized and custom-built; supplied by a European specialty firm, such as Reform, deVol, and Plain English (all of which now have showrooms in the US); or assembled from Ikea cabinets upgraded with outsourced doors and drawer fronts.

What we don’t often present are kitchens entirely made by American kitchen companies. Two notable US kitchen startups, Isla Porter and Corner, have far-away millworkers building their cabinets. Many others work with on-the-ground teams producing kitchens that may be well-made but style-wise leave much to be desired.

With the fallout from tariffs looming, not to mention the environmental cost of international shipping, we’ve been looking locally. Here are five kitchen brands that stand out for being American-designed and -fabricated—and also modernist-minded and, yes, a bit European in sensibility.

“We have carefully curated a selection of innovative plywood products that we trust for our cabinetry,” assures Boxco. “For our plywood doors and drawer fronts, we use high-quality hardwood veneers over a Baltic birch core renowned for its 13 layers of solid birch that provide exceptional stability and strength. All of our plywood products are formaldehyde-free, void-free, and sourced from sustainably managed forests.”
