One brand is making waves in innovative kitchen design on both sides of the Atlantic: DOCA. With roots planted 40 years ago in Spain, DOCA began as a furniture maker before realizing the immense potential in crafting and designing high-end, luxury kitchens. DOCA has now exploded onto the US market, opening close to 17 showrooms in just 18 months - DOCA Boston in Brookline being the most recent. DOCA answers today's call for both European sophistication and American sensibility to achieve the perfect blend of luxury and functionality. “DOCA has a feeling for everyone’s home,” says Travis Moore, Senior Designer at DOCA Boston.

With their dedication to providing a kitchen experience tailored to each client’s unique taste and lifestyle, DOCA offers an unparalleled level of customization. This includes custom millwork to create bespoke cabinetry, partitions, door styles, flooring, and more. “Nowadays, people are more comfortable putting personality into their kitchen,” recounts Moore. DOCA honors a range of styles and is known for transitional elements that bridge the gap between traditional and contemporary kitchens.

DOCA Boston brings a wealth of possibilities for homeowners across the metropolitan area and beyond. A visit to their Brookline showroom is an immersive experience, where grandeur is palpable across a variety of styles. From sleek, cutting edge cabinetry and stunning artisan-made light fixtures, to handsome and well-planned wardrobe displays, every inch of the showroom gleams with craftsmanship and ingenuity.

“The showroom is a beginning, and a way to build a relationship,” shares Moore. “Clients can trust the materials when they’re touching them, and we can start to understand what their aesthetic might be.”

Though DOCA offers an array of style lines—ensuring there's something for everyone—a common thread to the brand is the use of porcelain, a material synonymous with Spain’s rich tradition of craftsmanship. With advancements in technology, porcelain has regained its allure, and captivates those who experience it on DOCA’s surfaces. “Not only is porcelain approachable, it's super functional and super durable, and it looks beautiful again,” Moore affirms.

DOCA also embraces the use of cabinetry and partitioning as architectural elements. In response to evolving design trends, DOCA goes beyond the standard, offering customization options such as ceiling-high cabinetry and utilizing pocket doors for flexible space management. With custom millwork services and an in-house installation team on staff, the possibilities are endless, even in tighter urban living spaces. “In Boston, space is the real luxury—when you come into the showroom, you're experiencing kitchens that honor space,” says Moore. “We want to give the most generous amount of space while utilizing the product line and the cabinetry in the best way.”
