Kitchen Design Process

In our initial meeting about the kitchen design process, we will discuss your vision and what you would like to achieve. We’ll talk about the space you live in and how we can improve it. Creating a new kitchen is likely to be something you only do once or twice, and it is a place where you will spend a lot of time, so the end result must meet your exact requirements. I can also introduce you to ideas and solutions you may not have been aware of.

There is a logic to designing kitchens, but it’s also important to add the personal touch. Everyone is a unique individual, so throughout the process I talk and listen to clients. As an independent designer, I have complete freedom to design the ideal solution for you – we are not constrained to the limitations of individual suppliers.

How Our Bespoke Kitchen Design Process Works

01
Design consultation & site survey

We take a detailed brief from you in person and carry out a full site survey.

02
Design development and specifications

We develop your brief into a full design using 3D software, then work through the detail with you – cabinet finishes, worktops, appliances and hardware.

03
Supply of kitchen cabinets, worktops and appliances

We source and supply the cabinetry, worktops and appliances specified in your design.

04
Kitchen installation management

We manage your installation from start to finish with our in-house fitting team.

Design & supply

Design & supply – £900 incl. VAT

Our design and specification fee is £900 incl. VAT.

We work as a full-service kitchen company – design, supply, installation and project management. The design fee is a separate charge and is not deducted from the cost of your kitchen. Supply, installation and project management are quoted once your design is agreed, and vary depending on the kitchen you choose.

We do not offer a design-only service.
