Clean slab doors, refined hardware, and restrained material palettes — current, comfortable, and built for real life.
The Modern American collection bridges classic American kitchen generosity with contemporary European sensibility — clean slab doors, refined hardware, and restrained material palettes create spaces that feel current, comfortable, and built for real life.
Modern American kitchens occupy the space between European minimalism and traditional American warmth. Full-overlay slab doors, slim integrated handles, and thoughtful material combinations create a kitchen that feels contemporary without being cold — welcoming without being ornate.
This is a kitchen designed for the way modern American families actually live — open to adjacent living spaces, equipped for serious cooking, and beautiful enough for entertaining without requiring constant maintenance.
Yanis Remodeling designs and installs Modern American kitchens across Newport Beach, Irvine, Laguna Niguel, Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, Studio City, and communities throughout Orange County and Los Angeles.
Every Modern American installation is customized — cabinet configuration, island dimensions, material palette, and lighting design are tailored to your home architecture and daily life patterns.
Modern American blends simplicity with comfort. Clean lines, subtle contrast, and thoughtfully chosen materials create a look that feels current — but never cold. It transitions beautifully between open spaces.
The style is tailored, polished, and easy to personalize. Modern American fits the rhythm of modern life. Open spaces flow together, storage works quietly in the background, and the kitchen adapts to every moment.
Full-overlay slab doors in spray-painted North American maple (Brilliant White, Dove Grey, Navy, Charcoal) or rift-cut white oak with clear matte finish. Soft-close hinges, full-extension drawer slides, and precision CNC-machined joinery throughout. Clean lines with no visible frame — contemporary yet warm.
Countertops in Caesarstone, Silestone, or Cambria engineered quartz (calacatta, concrete, and solid color effects). Porcelain slab options from Laminam and Sapienstone offer ultra-thin profiles (6mm to 12mm) for waterfall islands and backsplash continuity. Non-porous, stain-resistant, and low-maintenance.
Slim bar pulls, edge pulls, and push-to-open mechanisms in brushed stainless steel or matte black finish. Hardware profiles are intentionally minimal — becoming part of the cabinetry line rather than standing out as separate elements.
LED under-cabinet task lighting, in-drawer illumination, and dimmable ambient lighting integrated during design. Compatible with smart home platforms including Control4, Lutron, and Apple HomeKit. USB-C charging ports and wireless charging pads built into island countertops.
Refined gray cabinetry and marble — metropolitan elegance.
Warm wood meets white quartz — effortless and inviting.
Double islands and natural light — designed for living.
Bold contrasts and open shelving — modern sophistication.
Every Modern American kitchen starts with understanding how you live and what you need from your kitchen. Here is our streamlined process.
We visit your home to measure the space, discuss your lifestyle, review adjacent room finishes, and understand your design preferences. We explore Modern American material options and create an initial direction. This consultation is complimentary for all projects.
Detailed floor plans, cabinetry elevations, and photorealistic 3D renderings show every detail of your Modern American kitchen. We optimize storage, appliance placement, and workflow based on how you actually cook and entertain. Design phase: 2-3 weeks.
Review and approve physical samples in our studio — painted finish samples, quartz slabs, and hardware options. All materials are confirmed before ordering from our manufacturing partners. Lead time: 5-7 weeks for custom cabinetry and surfaces.
Our installation team manages the complete project — demolition, structural preparation, cabinetry installation, countertop templating and fitting, appliance integration, and lighting setup. Weekly progress updates from your dedicated project manager. Installation: 4-7 weeks.
Comprehensive walkthrough ensures every alignment, mechanism, and finish meets our standards. We provide care instructions and connect smart lighting systems to your home network. Professional photography documents your completed kitchen.
$65,000 — $155,000
Based on kitchen size, material selections, countertop material, and appliance integration. Painted finishes and engineered quartz offer excellent value within the luxury range. Timeline: 9 to 14 weeks from design approval.
The Modern American experience emphasizes efficiency and transparency. Clear timelines, itemized proposals, and regular communication ensure you always know where your project stands. Our goal is to deliver contemporary luxury without unnecessary complexity.
Modern American kitchens range from $65,000 to $155,000 depending on kitchen size, finish type (painted vs. natural wood), countertop material, and appliance package. A mid-range Modern American kitchen with painted maple cabinetry, Caesarstone countertops, and integrated appliances averages $90,000 to $115,000.
From design approval to completion, expect 9 to 14 weeks. Custom cabinetry fabrication requires 5-7 weeks, followed by 4-7 weeks of on-site installation and finishing.
Modern American kitchens maintain the generous proportions and warmth of American design — larger cabinets, more storage, and warmer material palettes — while borrowing clean lines and restrained details from European design. The result is a kitchen that feels current and sophisticated without the austerity of pure minimalism.
Yes. Two-tone kitchens are a Modern American signature — typically painted perimeter cabinets with a natural wood island, or light uppers with darker lowers. We design the material transition to create visual interest while maintaining a cohesive design language.
Yanis Remodeling installs Modern American kitchens throughout Orange County (Newport Beach, Irvine, Laguna Niguel, Mission Viejo, Tustin) and Los Angeles County (Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, Studio City, Encino, Brentwood, and surrounding communities).
Modern American kitchens integrate beautifully with premium brands including Sub-Zero, Wolf, Thermador, Bosch, and Miele. We specify panel-ready models where cabinetry concealment is desired, or freestanding professional-style units when the appliance is a design feature. All appliance planning is included in our design phase.
Yes. Standard smart integrations include under-cabinet LED lighting with dimmer control, USB-C charging built into islands, and smart appliance connectivity. Premium options include motorized cabinet lifts, voice-controlled lighting, and integration with whole-home automation systems.
Our multi-step spray application process creates an extremely durable painted surface. Primer, multiple paint coats, and clear topcoat are applied in controlled environments. The resulting finish resists chipping, yellowing, and moisture. We provide touch-up paint matched to your exact color for any future needs.
