Nigon Woodworks

Office reveal!! 🎉 We post a lot of residential projects here, but we also build custom cabinets and furniture for commercial spaces too! If your business is in need of a custom reception desk or conference table reach out, let’s talk it over. 😀

Being a small business means our clients get ALL of our attention. Custom cabinetry and a small business go hand-in-hand because your home project is unique and has specific needs. We are, however, big enough to have all the cutting edge equipment and best materials needed to build the highest quality cabinets in Rochester (and surrounding areas of course!)

Founded in 1976.

Over the last 50 years, we’ve had the privilege of working in homes all across Rochester and Southeast Minnesota. In some cases, we’ve remodeled kitchens for one generation, then years later returned to work with their children—and eventually their grandchildren.

That kind of trust isn’t something we take lightly.

A lot has changed since 1976. Styles have changed. Tools have changed. The way people live in their homes has changed.

But our commitment to quality materials, thoughtful craftsmanship, and building cabinetry that lasts has remained the same.

Thank you to every family who has invited us into their home over the last five decades. We’re honored to be part of your stories.

Warm wood tones, thoughtful storage, and clean modern lines.

This custom kitchen was designed around maximizing functionality while still feeling warm and inviting for everyday living. The combination of light white oak cabinetry, a modern shaker profile, dark accents, and layered textures creates a timeless space that feels both elevated and comfortable.

One of our favorite details in this project is how every inch was intentionally designed for storage and organization without sacrificing aesthetics.

There’s something about summer that makes you look at your home a little differently.

We’re seeing a shift toward warmer materials, more thoughtful storage, and spaces that actually work for how people live day-to-day. Less about trends for the sake of trends—and more about creating homes that feel good to be in.

If you’ve been thinking about a kitchen remodel or adding built-ins, this is usually when the idea starts to take shape.
