Design

Your kitchen should reflect your taste, your desires, and your lifestyle. Our design process is highly individualized and collaborative, so that the final product meets your family’s needs perfectly, whether you are aspiring gourmet chefs or avid entertainers.

A remodeling or building project can be daunting. We collaborate with homeowners, architects, interior designers and builders to create the best design possible and to ensure a smooth building process. While we have our own design team, we are also happy to work with other design professionals.

Meet The Owners

Andy Bargende, Principal

Peter Bargende, Principal

Peter and Andy Bargende spent their early years after college restoring everything from Steinway pianos to architectural antiques. They moved from restoring furniture to designing their own pieces, and eventually expanded their focus to kitchen interior design and cabinetmaking. The Bargendes’ founded Faneuil Kitchen Cabinet with the principle that the design process can never be separated from the crafting and building process. At Faneuil the accumulated wisdom of thousands of projects allows us to design, build, and install projects that others simply can’t.
