Founder Roger Shollmier grew Kitchen Ideas through a passion for making the kitchen the most important room in the home. With over 3,000 successful jobs and hundreds of thousands of dollars raised for charitable causes, Roger’s life’s calling was evident. Almost every nationally-known home magazine has featured his work, and Roger’s own cooking and entertaining talents were the very platform for many of his ingenious creations, one of which was the Galley Workstation and what we could call today his crowning achievement. Roger said his creation of the original Galley Workstation “completed” his view of the perfect kitchen design, one that brings families and friends together around a central “hub” focal point in the kitchen.
Roger is survived by his 8th-grade sweetheart and wife of 49 years, Pat, three children and three grandchildren.

After graduating from the University of Oregon in 2001, designer Lesley Shollmier spent her next few successive years living abroad and putting together a successful business. After returning to Tulsa, she continued her far-flung pursuits by heading an international division of a successful firm. However, her affection for all things design, not to mention the constant petitioning of her father, Roger Shollmier, at long last brought her home to the family-run kitchen design business. It is at Kitchen Ideas that she is finally able to capitalize on her love for creativity, design, food, cooking, and her passion for enriching the lives of those around her with these fine ingredients.
