🏆 A Masterpiece in Modern Design: The Award-Winning Nina Residence by Oprea Kitchen & Bath Design Group

When craftsmanship, technology, and design come together in harmony, the result is more than a kitchen—it’s a statement. That’s exactly what the Nina Residence represents: a stunning example of frameless cabinetry design that earned First Place in Frameless Kitchens over $50,000 from the Cabinet Makers Association. At Oprea Kitchen & Bath Design Group, we pride ourselves on merging precision manufacturing with timeless artistry—and this project showcases that balance at its finest.

The Vision: A Kitchen That Defines Modern Elegance

The homeowners envisioned a kitchen that was sleek yet inviting, minimalist yet functional. Working closely with their designer, our team translated that vision into a cohesive space that celebrates both form and function.

Every element was thoughtfully curated—from the slim shaker doors to the softly veined quartz countertops and honey bronze pull accents that warm the palette. The result is a space that feels open, balanced, and effortlessly luxurious.

Frameless construction allowed us to maximize storage and create seamless visual lines, giving this kitchen the clean, European aesthetic that has become one of our signatures.

Design Features That Set It Apart

What truly makes the Nina Residence award-worthy is the attention to detail at every level:

  • Full-Access Frameless Cabinetry: Built for maximum efficiency and modern flow, offering greater storage without visible face frames.
  • Integrated Lighting: Subtle under-cabinet lighting brings warmth and depth, illuminating both function and texture.
  • High-End Finishes: A curated mix of materials, including soft-touch laminate and natural stone, harmonize to create a sophisticated tone.
  • Custom Island Design: Both a showpiece and a workstation, the island anchors the kitchen with sleek geometry and exceptional craftsmanship.
  • Precision Installation: Using CNC automation, every panel and joint aligned perfectly—proof that true 07precision is both art and science.
