The Timeless Trio: Crown Molding, Cabinetry, and Custom Lighting

That’s right, welcome to the renaissance of kitchen design! This timeless trio has the ability to transport your kitchen into an era of unmatched opulence and sophistication.
Crown Molding: Crown molding is like that perfect accessory that ties your entire outfit together. Whether it’s intricate or sleek, crown molding adds depth and an aristocratic vibe to your kitchen. It’s like your kitchen just got knighted by the queen.
Cabinetry: Cabinets aren’t just for storing your Tupperware. They’re the building blocks of your kitchen’s character. Whether you go for a classic shaker, an ornate traditional, or sleek modern, the cabinetry dictates the aura of your space.
Custom Lighting: Imagine custom lighting as an orchestra conductor, creating harmony amongst all the elements. Ambient, task, or accent lighting – each plays a different tune that culminates in a symphony of elegance.
Bringing It Together: The interplay between the molding, cabinetry, and lighting makes your kitchen design ascend into timeless realms. It’s like conducting a symphony where each section of the orchestra is tuned to perfection, creating an opus magnum that transcends time.
And here’s a fun fact to leave you with: Did you know that the term “crown molding” has regal origins? It’s believed to have been conceived as a means to add grandeur and a royal touch to a room. So, next time you enter your kitchen, you might want to consider donning a tiara or a top hat because you are stepping into a room that the majesty of design has touched.
Espresso Bar – The Java Genius: Channel your inner Italian with a state-of-the-art espresso machine, elegantly lined espresso cups, and an assortment of gourmet coffee beans. Imagine the aroma of freshly brewed coffee enveloping your kitchen every morning.
Wine Fridge – The Sommelier’s Sanctuary: Stock it with an assortment of reds, whites, and rosés. Go for the classics or discover hidden gems. Each bottle tells a story, waiting to be uncorked.

ABC Construction was a true pleasure to do business with. They took charge of the entire design process from initial consultation, layout and proposed solutions to items we brought to her for ideas, subcontracting with the counter installer, always keeping us in the loop and fielding tons of questions we had along the way. Evan and his crew were totally professional, considerate of our home and installed an awesome, high quality product. One last thing, their price for total custom kitchen was the less than another area kitchen cabinet installer’s semi custom price and without the concierge service ABC Construction offers. We love our new cabinets and cannot wait to show them off to our friends and family. We would highly recommend ABC Construction for your cabinet needs.
We were very happy with the final product of our home renovation. The kitchen turned out beautiful. ABC was always easy to get a hold of and always stayed in communication throughout the project. They stuck with the timeline and did everything they could to meet the deadline. We love our new floors and kitchen and have ABC to thank for a job well done!
Never did I imagine that the kitchen of our dreams could be a reality until we met the ABC Construction Building team. After discovering water & mold damage in our kitchen after the holidays is when we had to find a local contractor that could work with what we wanted to do with the cabinet replacements, as well as a specific budget and timeframe in mind too. They came up with a plan that not only increased our cabinet space for storage, but gave us a kitchen that we can and will enjoy for many years to come. I think we met several contractors and home improvement specialists in the area prior to ABC, but if you’re seeking a professional who’s team creates gorgeous spaces for you, your family and friends, stop reading this review and give ABC Construction Building a call. Personally, I know exactly who I plan to reach out to if and when our family are ready for our next home improvement.
