Our Story, Laurel NY
Owner-Operated, From the First Measurement to the Final Hinge

How We Work
A Focused Kitchen, Bath, and Cabinetry Approach
Laurel Interiors focuses on kitchen and bath design, cabinetry sales, countertops, hardware, and cabinetry for laundry rooms, pantries, built-ins, garages, shops, and other accessory rooms. Depending on the project, the process may include an in-home consultation, measurements, CAD drawings, perspective views, and a large-screen 3D review. When a client needs an installer, Laurel Interiors can provide a referral to a local company it has worked with. Laurel Interiors offers cabinetry lines ranging from builder-grade through custom, allowing the team to work with different project scopes and budgets.
Common Questions, North Fork and Long Island
What People Want to Know Before They Start
Who founded Laurel Interiors?
Laurel Interiors was founded by Kerry Janis and Dominic. They had worked together in the kitchen, bath, and cabinetry industry before partnering to open Laurel Interiors as their own owner-operated business.
What experience do the owners bring to the company?
Kerry and Dominic bring more than 50 years of combined industry experience. Kerry’s background includes interior design education, cabinetry and related product sales, teaching, client communication, and business ownership, while Dominic brings CAD, cabinetry sales, installation, home-improvement retail, and hands-on troubleshooting experience.
How are responsibilities divided between Kerry and Dominic?
Both owners collaborate on the design itself, but their day-to-day roles are complementary. Kerry handles much of the client-facing communication, sales, product discussions, billing, marketing, and design collaboration, while Dominic translates the discussions into CAD drawings, manages revisions, and contributes installation-informed technical support.
Why was Laurel Interiors created?
Kerry and Dominic saw an opportunity to build their own kitchen, bath, and cabinetry business after years of working in the industry together. They opened Laurel Interiors to serve clients and trade partners directly, combining their design, sales, CAD, and field experience in a smaller owner-operated setting.
What is the company's design philosophy?
Laurel Interiors emphasizes a collaborative process and aims to create cabinetry layouts that are both attractive and functional. The company also places a strong emphasis on technical practicality, making sure design decisions connect to real products, real measurements, and the way the cabinetry will actually be installed and used.
Does Laurel Interiors operate as a large team or a small business?
Laurel Interiors operates as a small, owner-led business. Clients work directly with Kerry and Dominic rather than a large staff, which allows the owners to stay closely involved in the history, decisions, and details of each Laurel Interiors project.
How does collaboration influence the company's approach?
Collaboration is built into the process. Kerry and Dominic combine their design, sales, CAD, and installation perspectives, while also working with the homeowner and the project’s builder or contractor when applicable. That shared review helps keep the cabinetry plan aligned with both the client’s goals and practical project requirements.
