What To Expect At Your Kitchen Design Appointment

It takes a lot of work to create the ideal kitchen. There are many choices to be made, from selecting the proper fittings to deciding on the ideal colour palette. Although it's a thrilling moment, it can also be a little intimidating. How do you even begin? Our team of professionals are always ready to assist. We'll outline what to anticipate during your design consultation appointment in this blog.



01. Initial Appointment

We collaborate with you to create the greatest design for your home! We initially discuss your needs and any special requests you may have with you. We want to get to know you and your vision for the space during the design consultation. We'll start by getting a sense of your preferred designs. Do you favour a more conventional appearance or something more contemporary? To ensure that we can produce something that complements your personality and way of life, we also like to learn about the customer's specific preferences. Your practical demands, such as those related to storage and accessibility, will be questioned. With the use of this knowledge, we'll be able to develop a unique design plan that satisfies all of your requirements.


02. Measurements

After our initial meeting, we will require the room's measurements and layout (plans). You can either do this by having a free consultation and surveyor come to your property, or you can always send us your own drawings and measurements by following our guide. This will help us understand what is feasible and which layout would be the most effective. We'll create an initial design concept after we get all the necessary information. This will help you envision how your new kitchen will look when it is finished.


03. Design Phase 

The design phase is our favourite part of the process. We will work with you to give your kitchen an amazing look that's tailored just for you. We're always ready and waiting in order provide whatever ideas or suggestions so we can ensure everything turns out exactly like you desired, which also includes giving customers flexibility when deciding how they want their space decorated - all without any cost whatsoever until final results meet expectations.


04. Order Place and Delivery

Once your order is placed, our manufacturers will produce the goods and deliver them straight to you. We'll make sure that installation happens as well; if there are any issues along the way we can always call on a pair of expert aligners for help.


There's no need to worry about your kitchen transformation. We are aware that starting a remodel can initially seem like a lot to take on. Starting with the design consultation, our team of specialists are here to help you through every stage of the procedure. To further grasp your idea for the space and assist in making it a reality, we provide complimentary design consulting appointments. You should have a strong understanding of what to anticipate from your new kitchen renovation by the end of the consultation.


Because of our extensive industry knowledge, you can take advantage of custom new features without any hassle! We build kitchens with long-lasting worth so you may appreciate it for many years to come! To arrange your design consultation, contact us right away!

How To Create a Relaxing and Inviting Atmosphere in Your Kitchen and Bedroom Home is where the heart is. It should also be your sanctuary; a place of comfort and relaxation. Creating the right atmosphere in your bedroom and kitchen can make a huge difference to how you feel when you’re at home. Here are some tips on how to create an inviting and relaxing atmosphere in these two rooms. Minimise Clutter The first step towards creating a relaxing atmosphere is to declutter. Messy spaces can be overwhelming and distracting, so it’s important to get rid of any clutter that’s taking up space in your bedroom or kitchen. Take the time to go through each room, getting rid of anything you no longer need or want, and organizing the items that remain into neat piles or containers. This will help create a sense of calmness and order in the room. Soft Lighting Having plenty of natural light streaming into your bedroom and kitchen can help create a calming ambiance. Make sure curtains or blinds are open during the day, allowing sunlight to pour into the room, and install dimmable light fixtures for night time use, this will give you control over how bright or dim the lights are at any given time so you can adjust them accordingly depending on what mood you want to create. Soothing Colours Another great way to make your kitchen and bedroom more inviting is by using colours that evoke feelings of calmness and peace. Choose colours like muted blues, greens, greys, and browns that bring warmth without being too overwhelming visually. A great way to incorporate these colours into your space is adding accent pieces such as pillows, rugs, curtains, wall art or vases of flowers, all of which will help bring life into the room without making it feel cluttered. Wall Art & Accessories Adding some wall art is a great way to personalise your space while also making it feel more homey and inviting. Look for pieces with calming images or inspirational messages that remind you of happy memories or goals you’ve achieved. You can also add plants or other accessories such as candles to complete the look of relaxation in both rooms. Comforting Textiles Furniture textiles like pillows, blankets, and rugs can add texture and comfort while also helping tie together all the colours and decor items you’ve chosen for these rooms in your home. Choose fabrics that are soft to the touch but don’t take away from the rest of your design aesthetic. Create a tranquil atmosphere... With just a few simple changes, you can quickly transform both your bedroom and kitchen into a peaceful oasis within your home that invites relaxation every time you enter it.
