Great Kitchen Design Begins With How You Live

Before co-founding MYRA Studio, I spent nearly ten years designing healthcare facilities—from small medical office suites to large, full-service hospitals.

At first glance, hospitals and custom kitchens couldn’t seem more different. In practice, they begin exactly the same way.

Long before anyone chooses cabinet doors or countertop materials, good design begins with a much simpler question: How will this room be used?

MYRA Studio explains what sustainable custom cabinetry really means—from locally milled Northern California wood and FSC certification to low-VOC finishes and enduring design.
