According to Jewish law, meat and dairy must be kept separate, not only in cooking and eating but also in storage, preparation, and cleaning. This separation is rooted in biblical commandments and ensures that kosher dietary laws, known as kashrut, are properly followed. To maintain a kosher kitchen, families need designated spaces for meat and dairy, which often include separate sinks, dishwashers, ovens, cookware, and utensils. A well-designed kosher kitchen makes adhering to these guidelines easy and efficient while enhancing both functionality and aesthetics.

When it comes to renovating a kosher kitchen, the key is blending tradition, functionality, and modern design to create a space that aligns with Jewish dietary laws while remaining beautiful and efficient. If you’re searching for a kosher kitchen designer in Boca Raton or Toronto, you’ve come to the right place!



Key Features of a Kosher Kitchen


Our team works closely with clients to create a workflow that makes meal preparation seamless, whether it’s for a meat or dairy dish. We also help strategize where each dish and utensil will be stored, ensuring ample space and proper organization. Additionally, we measure larger dishes and small appliances to make sure cabinets are constructed to fit them perfectly, optimizing storage and functionality. Here’s how:


1. Two Sinks

Jewish dietary laws prohibit mixing meat and dairy, even when cleaning. Having two separate sinks prevents cross-contamination and makes meal prep much easier.

2. Two Dishwashers

Just as with sinks, separate dishwashers for meat and dairy ensure that all utensils and dishes remain in compliance with kosher standards. This setup eliminates the risk of residue transfer between different food groups.


3. Two Ovens and Cooktops

Because meat and dairy cannot be cooked in the same oven, kosher kitchens often feature dual ovens and for some families, separate stovetops. If space is limited, a double oven with distinct compartments may be an alternative.


This Kosher Kitchen has both meat and dairy ovens and was designed for our client's transitional style with grey and white cabinets with an extra pantry for additional storage. We have planned out both Meat and dairy storage throughout the kitchen as well.

4. Ample Storage for Two Sets of Everything

In a kosher kitchen, you’ll need two sets of dishes, cookware, and utensils—one for dairy and one for meat. Thoughtful cabinetry design and organization are key to ensuring everything has a dedicated place, reducing confusion in a busy kitchen. Our team assists in planning storage solutions to ensure every item has its place, maximizing efficiency.


5. Kosher-Friendly Refrigeration & Prep Spaces

Keeping ingredients properly separated is just as important as cooking them separately. A well-planned kosher kitchen includes:

✅ Clearly labeled refrigerator sections for meat and dairy

✅ Distinct prep areas for food preparation

✅ Smart storage solutions for Passover dishes and utensils




Blending Tradition with Modern Kitchen Design


A kosher kitchen doesn’t have to feel outdated or overly utilitarian. With the right design choices, you can create a sleek, functional, and stunning space that meets all kosher guidelines while reflecting your personal style. From elegant cabinetry and custom storage solutions to durable countertops that withstand high-volume cooking, every element is designed with both beauty and purpose in mind.

Client Success Story: A Seamless Kosher Kitchen Transformation

One of my recent clients in Toronto needed a complete kosher kitchen renovation to better suit their growing Orthodox Jewish family. They needed efficient organization, top-of-the-line appliances, and enough space to comfortably prepare large meals for Shabbat and holidays.



Here’s what they had to say after the project was completed:


“Katie goes above and beyond to ensure her clients are happy with their renovation. She has a keen eye for color, design, and innovation. With her expertise, we smoothly downsized from 3000 square feet to 1400 square feet. This process took lots of thought and thinking outside the box to ensure our transition was easy. We were introduced to space-saving technology, color, and textures to create a warm and inviting home. Katie was open to our ideas and also has many of her own to ensure that a solid working relationship is developed. We highly recommend Katie for your next design overhaul and/or renovation.”


This project involved strategic space planning, innovative storage solutions, and a focus on maximizing function without sacrificing aesthetics. Whether you’re building new or renovating your existing kitchen in Boca Raton or Toronto, I’m here to make the process seamless and stress-free.

BEFORE- This kitchen was small and barely had enough storage, so we got to planning and organizing.

AFTER- We had extended this kitchen by two feet and extended the window adding much needed natural light. We used every bit of space for extras and pullouts, we even got to add a broom cabinet on the side of the much-needed refrigerator.
