Kitchen planning and design is underrated. In fact, it can be quite overwelming, to say the least. Let us help you in this process and give you the ideas, suggestions and comfort knowing that you will be truly looked after. Our kitchen designers are trained specialists with knowledge of installation and dynamic space utilization to best suit you. They are also in tune with design trends, technical innovations and new types of materials. Most importantly however, they are experts in listening and understanding in order to help you make the decisions that are best for you, your kitchen project and how it interconnects with your living space.
Once our specialists have a good sense of your vision and have asked many questions related to wood species, door styles, colors, box construction, kitchen ergonomics, features and many more, they will then ask about your space and any relavent construction and building issues. Plumbing questions come up and electrical, not to mention windows, light and ceiling heights. The demensions of the room are measured and then, all things considered, we begin to draw. It is here where the metamorphosis occurs and your kitchen comes to life. We draw by hand, and put pencil to paper and spend many hours drafting, calculating and balancing. After this process we provide you early elevations for your kitchen - side, top and front view. When you like what you see we can start getting more serious and create renderings in 3D.
The modern kitchen has many accessories to choose from. Depending on your budget, all kinds of space savers and storage solutions are available. If you want to spruce up your kitchen with visual accessories there are carvings, many types of crown profiles, hood fan constructions and more. It's a team effort and we can provide you with our professional opinion.
