“Beauty is definitely more than skin deep for today’s homeowners, who want stylish cabinets that are as functional as they are beautiful. Our brands have interpreted this trend with an array of cabinet products that offer exceptional style, function, flexibility, durability and so much more,” said Stephanie Pierce, senior manager of the design studio, MasterBrand Cabinets.

Following are just some of the products on view now in the MasterBrand booth.

Omega: Custom looks for those who enjoy the finer things in life 

Omega Cabinetry continues to cater to those who seek the beauty and luxury of custom cabinetry for the home. Its new Desert Finish is a light, khaki-stained color that blends nicely with other home furnishings offering a desirable new neutral option. Providing an alternate choice for light stains that are free of red or yellow undertones, Desert is a highly likable neutral across many decorating schemes. The finish is featured in the booth with a new textured grain laminate door style, Nella, and is combined with distressing to evoke an industrial look.

Also new to Omega are two new Shaker door styles, Benson and Blair, each with a slight bevel in the interior edge. In addition, Omega unveils an updated logo and identity reflecting its high level of excellence in fully custom cabinetry for those who enjoy a personalized space.

Decorá: Luxurious, hand-applied finishes for living in style 

Meeting the trend for handcrafted products, Decorá Cabinetry introduces three meticulously applied, luxuriously beautiful brushed finishes. Translucent Brushed Onyx, Brushed Saddle and Brushed Pavestone finishes can be layered over any paint color on Maple, whether from the Decorá Color Collections, the entire Sherwin-Williams palette, or any custom color under the sun, to achieve a completely personalized look. Best exhibited on light to medium paint colors, the gray to black tones of Onyx, the neutral brown-grays inherent in Saddle, and the warm gray tones of the Pavestone brushed finish also offer subtle definition on darker paints when a sophisticated tone-on-tone look is desired.

Aristokraft: Classic fashion without the fuss 

Can lighter cabinet colors be as durable as they are beautiful? Absolutely, thanks to the Aristokraft PureStyle™ collection of low maintenance, high-performance cabinetry. Its velvety smooth surface is abrasion resistant, environmentally friendly, and more impervious to moisture than painted wood. With the demand growing for versatile, light-toned hues, Durham Glacier Gray, Durham White and Brellin Glacier Gray have been introduced to this well-loved offering. Glacier Gray, the most recent color introduction, partners well with cool-stained wood tones and today’s most popular countertop and flooring choices. Brellin will be exhibited at the booth in the on-trend White PureStyle finish, and Durham will be exhibited in both White and Glacier Gray PureStyle finishes.
