Hi all, I'm in the design phase of my first full kitchen remodel. I am doing a beaded inset face frame style with simple shaker doors. All cabinets will be painted (probably white). I am trying to build all the cabinet runs as single units so that there are no seams where cabinets meet. These will be built at my home shop, so they won't have to move far and I don't have any runs over 5 feet. My question is, what is the best way to achieve this seamless aesthetic between the corner cabinet and the adjacent runs? Is the seam inevitable here or are there ways to use just one stile between them without install being a nightmare? I'm planning to build carcasses out of 3/4" plywood with 1.5" stiles, so I suppose if I went totally flush with the insides I could do a single stile, but I'm thinking a gap between cabinets might be necessary to account for out of square walls and such. Another option would be to have a wider stile at that location which might not look perfect, but better than a seam. Anyone have a favorite method?
