The Tacoma-style cabinets are built like Shaker-style cabinets with a little Tacoma Dusk more flare. The difference between the Shaker style and Tacoma-style is the extra beveled edge to the cabinet door and drawer front. All doors and drawers start with the simple Shaker recessed panel, but the HDF overlay with the beveled edge gives it a little more style and personality than the Shaker cabinets. If you consider the Shaker-style cabinet not to fit your transitional style kitchen, the Tacoma-style might be just the right fit for you.
