About Us
Catalpa is part of Rowan Woodwork. A Nobilia preferred dealer, we offer cabinets and architectural systems that balance precision with warmth. We are a queer woman-owned business operated from our showroom in Accord, New York.
With decades of experience as custom cabinetmakers, our work brings together German-engineered cabinetry with a modern design sensibility.
Why Catalpa
Catalpa is a refined European cabinetry system that’s been developed, tested and perfected at scale. With a comprehensive library of design components made for performance, sustainability, and longevity, our system provides a holistic approach with integration and flexibility. We believe good design doesn’t have to cost more, and cabinetry should support a space without overwhelming it. We use clean lines, thoughtful proportions, and quality materials to build products that are adaptable and expressive.
Incorporating the precision of German design and engineering, our products follow Bauhaus principles of form and design. If you’re looking for refinement without excess, and structure without rigidity, Catalpa is your match.
Catalpa Offers…
European Precision
We use German-engineered systems known for longevity, high quality materials, and clarity of form. We’re perfectionists who care about the details - to the millimeter.
Design-Led Curation
Every configuration is shaped through a professional design lens, not a catalog. With thousands of design possibilities, and functional and lighting upgrades, we can design the space you’ve been dreaming of.
Quick Timelines
Semi-custom work offers a refined alternative to fully bespoke work, without sacrificing intention. Cabinets are pre-assembled for easier and faster installation.
Sustainable Products & Processes
Our cabinets use regional raw materials, and are produced with an increased focus on sustainability and durability. We use an environmentally friendly supply chain and transportation solutions to protect the world we’re part of.
