About Stoll Construction Cabinets & Design
Founded in 2008, owners Carlo and Donna Picasso had a dream to create a kitchen design and renovation company. The first differentiator of Stoll Construction Cabinets & Design is the approach to business. Relationships are essential to the Picassos. When a kitchen is completed, the communication between Stoll Construction Cabinets & Design and the customer doesn’t stop there.
As a family-based company, we make it a point to stay in frequent touch with our clients to ensure their kitchens are always in top-notch order. This had led Stoll Construction Cabinets & Design to grow exponentially due to constant referrals around the Charlotte, NC, and Lancaster, SC, area!
Does Stoll Construction & Design sound like the custom cabinetry company for you? Call us. We’re always excited to meet our next client.
A Showroom That Comes to You!
The second differentiator that Stoll Construction Cabinets & Design has to offer is a mobile showroom! The Picassos really wanted to stand out to the customer base in Charlotte, NC, because the market for kitchens and bathrooms is highly saturated. This is just one way to alleviate some of that pressure that’s often associated with renovating your kitchen.

2026 Top Kitchen Design Trends: A Look at Styles, Materials and Innovations Shaping the Modern Kitchen
As kitchen design continues evolving in 2026, homeowners and designers are embracing spaces that balance beauty, functionality, and emotional comfort. Emerging trends highlight a shift toward natural materials, warm and grounded color palettes, integrated technology, and thoughtfully planned layouts that support everyday living. Industry reports show a strong movement toward calm, nature-inspired colors, increased storage efficiency, and surfaces that double as artistic focal points, reflecting a desire for kitchens that feel both timeless and deeply personal. This year’s trends emphasize craftsmanship, connection to surrounding spaces, and design solutions that make the kitchen more livable, efficient, and reflective of individual lifestyles.
A Neutral Color Palette: Warm, Earthy Colors Paired with Serene Greens and Cool Blues
In 2026, kitchen color palettes continue shifting toward soothing, nature-inspired tones that create calm, livable spaces. Neutrals remain the most popular choice, while greens and blues rise alongside them as preferred accent hues. Warm earth tones—especially terracotta and clay—also emerge as defining colors for the year, replacing the stark whites of previous design cycles and introducing a grounded, organic feeling to the kitchen. The result is a palette that feels both timeless and natural, reinforcing the shift toward kitchens that promote comfort, balance, and emotional warmth.

Balanced proportions, natural textures, and calming tonal palettes work in harmony to elevate the kitchen into a serene, high-functioning living space.

Statement Surfaces: Backsplashes and Countertops Steal the Spotlight
Surfaces take center stage in 2026, with backsplashes and countertops becoming focal design elements rather than simple functional features. Designers are opting for dramatic stone slabs, handmade tiles, and full-height marble walls that add texture, depth, and visual artistry to the kitchen. This move from traditional subway tile reflects a broader desire for unique, expressive materials that deliver character and craftsmanship. Similarly, the trend toward “counter-splashes”—where countertop stone continues up the wall—adds seamless continuity and striking visual impact in both modern and traditional kitchens.

Streamlined Storage and Integrated Appliances: Creating Seamless, Clutter Free Kitchens
In 2026, kitchens are increasingly defined by streamlined storage and seamlessly integrated appliances that work together to create efficient and visually calm spaces. Sophisticated storage solutions such as floor-to-ceiling cabinetry and hidden pantry zones, maximize vertical space and reduce clutter. Panel-ready refrigerators, and built-in range hoods contribute to a furniture-like aesthetic, allowing appliances to blend effortlessly into the surrounding cabinetry. These innovations support the growing movement toward kitchens that function discreetly behind the scenes, offering a harmonious balance of practicality and minimalism.

Versatile Layouts – Designing Kitchens That Adapt to Modern Lifestyles
Kitchen layouts in 2026 reflect evolving lifestyle needs by prioritizing connectivity, flexibility, and social flow. Even as the overall size of homes trends downward, experts predict that the kitchen footprint will continue expanding, becoming more central to daily life and entertainment. Broken-plan layouts and pass-through windows create connection between rooms without committing to a full open-concept design, offering both visual openness and functional separation. These spatial approaches support a more livable, multi-purpose kitchen environment that seamlessly interacts with surrounding areas.

Lighting As a Design Statement: Bold Lighting Choices That Define Mood and Style
Lighting evolves beyond functionality and becomes a sculptural, expressive design element in 2026 kitchen spaces. Oversized pendants, layered lighting plans, and artistic fixtures highlight key areas and contribute to the room’s overall aesthetic identity. Designers are putting emphasis on the power of lighting to define mood, highlight materials, and visually anchor the kitchen within an open or multi-functional living area.
