Custom Color, Cottage Charm

This buffet showcases thoughtful storage solutions and design details that make it work beautifully as a dining room buffet, butler’s pantry, or kitchen focal point.

From the baker’s cabinet to ADA-compliant pull-down storage, every feature is chosen to blend cottage charm with genuine functionality.

Custom Paint Program: Any Color You Want

The Fort Pierce color on these cabinets is a custom Sherwin-Williams selection, not a standard Decora finish. That’s the beauty of their custom color program.

Choose any Benjamin Moore or Sherwin-Williams color, and Decora will paint it on your cabinets with the same tough, baked-on finish they use for standard colors.

You get custom color with durability.

The Black Fox cabinets provide a rich, warm dark brown accent that adds depth and visual interest.

Flanking Cabinet Design for Balance

The layout uses a flanking design with cabinets coming down to the counter on one side and a tall pantry on the other.

This creates symmetry without feeling heavy or overwhelming. It’s a thoughtful approach to balancing visual weight while maximizing storage.

A modern kitchen features gray lower cabinets and light blue upper cabinets, some with glass doors. A speckled countertop and a small plant sit to the left, while a wine rack above the counter complements the custom color buffet style.

Wall Cabinet with Drawers Below

One unique feature is the combination of a wall cabinet mounted above two drawers that sit just 18 inches from the countertop.

These deeper drawers provide practical storage for extra silverware, napkins, tablecloths, or serving pieces.

It’s an unexpected configuration that works beautifully in a buffet setting where you need flexible storage at different heights.

Four-Drawer Base Cabinets

Flanking the baker’s cabinet are four-drawer base cabinets that offer organized storage for linens, flatware, or whatever you need close at hand.

Multiple drawers mean better organization and easier access than single-door cabinets with shelves.

Roll Tray Cabinet with Adjustable Shelves

The cabinet in the middle features two adjustable roll trays.

If you ever want to change their position, you can move them up or down to fit what you’re storing. It’s flexibility built right into the cabinet.

Seeded Glass with Beadboard Backing

The upper cabinets feature seeded glass doors with tiny bubbles that give an antique, old-fashioned look.

You can see what’s inside without seeing every detail.

The real surprise is the beadboard panel installed in the back of the cabinets, finished in Black Fox. This adds texture and brings both the Fort Pierce and Black Fox colors into the same cabinet for added visual interest.

Cambria Kelvingrove Quartz Countertop

The countertop is Cambria in Kelvingrove with a simple square edge.

The color and depth of this quartz add sparkle and interest that complements the custom cabinet colors beautifully without competing for attention.

ADA-Compliant Pull-Down Wall Cabinet

The center wall cabinet is an ADA-compliant pull-down unit.

Pull the cabinet down, and it locks into place at a reachable height. When you’re done, pull down again and it rises slowly back up.

This feature is invaluable for anyone in a wheelchair or anyone who has difficulty reaching upper shelves.

Instead of climbing on a stool or asking for help, you bring the storage down to you. It’s accessible design that doesn’t sacrifice style.

Baker’s Cabinet

The baker’s cabinet is a time-tested design that’s been around for centuries. The bottom drawer is deep enough for large mixing bowls, the kind you use for bread or big batches of cookies.

The middle drawer holds rolling pins, biscuit cutters, and other baking tools.

The top drawer stores spatulas, spoons, and measuring cups. Everything you need for baking lives in one organized cabinet.

Decorative Legs

The decorative legs at the base add cottage character and make the buffet feel more like furniture than standard cabinetry.

In this setup, the legs are flush with the cabinet front, but they can also be positioned to bow out slightly for a more pronounced furniture look.

Either way, they’re a detail that elevates the design.

Pantry with Roll-Out Trays

The tall pantry is one of the most popular features in any kitchen or buffet.

Four roll-out trays let you see everything, even items pushed to the back. No more buying duplicates because you forgot you already had three cans of tomatoes.

The upper section has two adjustable shelves, and some homeowners remove one or both to store taller items like blenders or small appliances that are always hard to find a home for.
