About the Studio
Duarte Cabinets & Design is the studio of Itzel Duarte, an integral designer who believes a well-made space should feel as good as it looks.
Our Story
Crafted for the way you live.
Duarte Cabinets & Design was founded by Itzel Duarte, integral designer & founder, on a simple conviction: that thoughtful design and honest carpentry belong together. Too often, beautiful interiors are undone by furniture that doesn’t fit, or fine cabinetry that was never really designed.
As an integral designer, Itzel brings interiors, architecture, and custom millwork under one roof, so the vision that begins on paper is the same one installed in your home. Every project is measured, drawn, rendered, and built by a single accountable team.
Based in Tijuana and working across the border into Southern California, the studio is building toward a binational practice, bringing made-to-measure design to clients on both sides of the line.
Mission
To transform spaces through integral design and signature cabinetry, delivering personalized, high-quality pieces at a fair price, with a professional and personal experience that turns every investment into a space that is functional, dignified, and full of life.
Vision
To become the binational reference for made-to-measure design, bringing our passion for detail to the leading cities of Mexico and the United States.
