Arches are showing up everywhere in interior design, including cabinets.

Arches have made a comeback – but in a different way.
They are everywhere in interior and exterior home design. To be clear, the bell-shaped, cathedral arch cabinet doors that were popular in the 80s and 90s are not what people are adding to most home remodel wish lists. Many homeowners updating their cabinets still remove Liberty bell arch door styles installed decades ago unless they are going for a Victorian or very traditional appearance.

The type of arch people are looking for today is a more minimal, soft rounded arch with a consistent radius. These clean, simple arched-top shapes are showing up in hallway and passageway arches, interior doors, entry doors, windows, mirrors, and furniture pieces.

Arches soften the hard edges in a home and create a more curated, high end look. Adding arched-top cabinet doors to a furniture-look buffet cabinet or hutch in a room with otherwise square doors is a great way to elevate the look of the room.

Separated left and right arches that come together to complete a full arch are a popular way to use arches in cabinets.

Many arched cabinet doors feature glass inserts to display cabinet contents.

For many budgets a radius top cabinet can be prohibitively expensive. A great solution to add arches to a cabinet piece without breaking the bank is TaylorCraft’s C14L and C14R left and right arched doors, shown above cut for glass inserts.
They have a subtle arched left and right eyebrown that come together to create a complete arch. TaylorCraft’s C14L and C14R cabinet doors still work within a 90 degree cabinet box, making the arched look effect more affordable than custom arched-top cabinet.

C14L and C14R cabinet doors can create a beautiful, arched furniture-look cabinet within the kitchen, custom buffet, hutch or armoire.
