European style cabinetry are all about “less is more” – an understated look that’s all about clean lines and uncomplicated, practical design. Modern European cabinets are usually completely smooth – offering overlay doors and drawer fronts that utilize a full-access frameless construction.
As well as maximizing space in your kitchen cabinets, European designs are minimalistic; with no moldings, decorative trims, carvings, or raised panels – in fact, many designs even use concealed hinges to further accentuate the flat and smooth surfaces. As a result, even a small kitchen design can appear more spacious – with flat, seamless, streamlined designs, often with a wood or high-gloss finish.
