There’s something special about seeing design come to life in person — feeling the materials, opening the cabinets, and imagining how it all might look in your own home. That’s exactly what the Modern Twig showroom is all about.
Tucked into a charming commercial pocket in the heart of Old Pasadena, it’s where IKEA-compatible cabinetry meets premium design inspiration — and where we meet by appointment to offer personalized, one-on-one guidance for your cabinetry needs all in one cozy, welcoming space.

Experience Upgraded IKEA Cabinets
Walking into the showroom is like stepping into a series of mini spaces that show off what Modern Twig is all about: high-quality cabinet fronts that elevate IKEA systems into something special.
We’ve got real-life setups using IKEA Sektion, Godmorgon, Pax, Besta, and our own Swedeboxx cabinet systems — all styled in different ways to spark ideas and help you see what’s possible.
You’ll be able to open drawers, feel the weight of a door, and experience how our finishes interact with light in real life.
An in-person experience that online shopping simply can’t replicate.
Style Without Limits
One of the biggest questions we hear is, “How do I choose the right finish?” In the showroom, you’ll be able to see all of our most popular materials side-by-side, so you can compare tone, texture, and overall feel in person.
Discover a wide array of door styles, from minimalist Slab to elegant Shaker designs, allowing you to achieve the perfect aesthetic for any space—whether you’re aiming for clean and modern or warm and classic.
Here’s a quick look at what you’ll find:
- Wood Veneers: These finishes bring the warmth and richness of real wood grain — like Walnut or Rift White Oak — without the high cost and maintenance of solid wood. They’re perfect if you love natural textures and timeless style.
- Matte Finishes: Sleek, smooth, and super versatile. Matte surfaces absorb light, giving your space a soft, modern look while hiding fingerprints and smudges — ideal for busy households.
- Faux Wood: Don’t let the word “faux” fool you. These textured melamine finishes mimic real wood impressively well and are incredibly durable. Our Beachwood finish is one of our customer favorites for its relaxed, coastal vibe.
- Wood Shaker: A nod to traditional craftsmanship, these doors have a subtle frame and clean lines that work beautifully in transitional spaces.
- Paint-Ready: If you’ve got a bold color in mind, paint-ready doors are your blank canvas. They arrive primed and ready to paint, so you can bring your exact vision to life (and repaint down the road if your style changes).

💡 Pro tip: Bring swatches, inspiration images, or even your IKEA plans — seeing them alongside our finishes helps narrow things down fast.
Why Seeing It in Person Matters
Designing a kitchen (or bathroom, or closet) from scratch can be overwhelming, especially when you’re looking at everything through a screen. Visiting the showroom gives you the chance to slow down, ask questions, and make confident decisions — with real materials and a real human there to guide you.
You’ll get expert insight on layout ideas, material combinations, and how to get the most out of your IKEA foundation — whether you’re doing it all yourself or working with a contractor.
And unlike other big-box showrooms, we keep things low-key, down-to-earth, and always centered on what works for you.
