Kitchen & Bath Design

What Kitchen & Bath Design does

Kitchen & Bath Design is a family-owned kitchen and bathroom design and retail showroom headquartered in Kirkwood, Missouri, founded in 1969 and serving residential homeowners across St. Louis County and surrounding areas. The company operates a single 4,000+ square foot showroom that displays cabinets, countertops, tile, plumbing fixtures, hardware, and specialty items from multiple established manufacturers, including Shiloh, Aspect, Eclipse, Aristokraft, Cambria, Silestone, Viatera, Moen, Kohler, and Delta. Customers engage the company through a structured five-phase design service process — consultation, concept and design planning, team development, material coordination and selection, and implementation support — with design consultation offered at no charge as a customer acquisition mechanism that monetizes through downstream product sales.

The company makes money primarily through one-time retail sales of custom cabinetry, countertops, plumbing fixtures, and hardware to individual homeowners undertaking kitchen, bathroom, basement, laundry room, or new-build projects. Free design consultation is bundled into the offering rather than charged separately, and the business does not appear to operate any recurring or subscription revenue model. Distribution is exclusively through the Kirkwood showroom and the company website (kandbdesign.com), with no e-commerce checkout, mobile app, API, or digital channel integrations disclosed. The technology stack is non-software: the product is the showroom itself, the supplier relationships, and the in-person design expertise.

Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer, reliant on local word-of-mouth, the showroom experience, customer testimonials displayed on the website, and a project gallery organized by kitchen, bathroom, and other-space categories. The company is led by Owner Mitch Votruba and CFO Chet Votruba, with a small named team of designers and sales staff; firmographic headcount of 51–100 employees suggests a broader workforce that likely includes installation contractors or supplementary staff not enumerated on the public About page. No funding rounds, acquisitions, patents, certifications, or regulatory actions are disclosed, consistent with a privately held, multi-generational local retail business.

Expansion highlights1 record

Emerging players

• Block Renovation: Block Renovation is a digital platform that matches homeowners with vetted renovation contractors and provides design support. Comparable because it serves the same homeowner kitchen/bath renovation customer with design assistance and project coordination, though it is technology-enabled rather than showroom-based.
• CliqStudios: CliqStudios is an online kitchen design service that provides remote design consultation and ships custom cabinetry nationwide. Comparable because it competes for the same custom kitchen cabinet customer with a design-led sales model, though it operates online rather than through a physical showroom.

Direct peers

• Kitchen Magic: Kitchen Magic is a kitchen remodeling franchise with showrooms offering custom cabinet refacing and full kitchen renovations. Comparable because it targets the same homeowner kitchen remodeling segment with showroom design consultations and custom product offerings.
• Bath Fitter: Bath Fitter is a national bath remodeling franchise specializing in acrylic tub and shower replacements with in-home design consultations. Comparable as a direct bath remodeling competitor serving the same residential homeowner customer, though more narrowly focused on tub/shower replacement.
• Re-Bath: Re-Bath is a national bathroom and kitchen remodeling franchise offering design consultation, product selection, and installation services. Comparable because it serves homeowners undertaking similar bath/kitchen remodels with showroom-driven design, though it is more bath-focused and operates as a franchise network.

Broad incumbents

• IKEA Kitchen Planning: IKEA offers kitchen and bath planning services through in-store consultations and design software. Comparable as a competing channel for homeowners seeking kitchen/bath design and product purchase, though IKEA targets a lower price point with self-installed, modular products.
• Home Depot Kitchen Design Services: Home Depot offers in-store kitchen and bath design services through dedicated design centers, selling cabinets, countertops, and fixtures from multiple brands. Comparable as a competing channel for kitchen/bath design and product purchase, though at much larger scale with broader product assortment and lower price positioning.
• Kohler Signature Stores: Kohler operates signature showrooms showcasing Kohler and partner brands for kitchen and bath design, with design consultation services. Comparable as a premium kitchen/bath showroom competitor carrying many of the same brands (including Kohler), though Kohler's own branded showrooms are typically larger and located in major metro areas.
• Lowe's Kitchen Design Services: Lowe's offers kitchen and bath design services through its stores with brands like Kemper, Diamond, and Style Selections cabinetry. Comparable because it directly competes for the same kitchen/bath remodeling homeowner through design consultation and product display.
• Ferguson Bath, Kitchen & Lighting Gallery: Ferguson operates a large national network of kitchen, bath, and lighting showrooms with design consultation services, product displays, and premium brand partnerships. Comparable because it serves the same residential remodeling customer with showroom-based design and cabinet/countertop/plumbing sales, though at much larger scale.
