It’s like having your own personal kitchen designer!

 Do you want a new kitchen or to update your existing kitchen? Can’t figure out how to  sort out all the information out there to find the answers to your own questions? Planning a new kitchen design can be a complicated job.

Whether you are designing a kitchen remodel, a major home renovation or building a new home from scratch you will be glad you took the time to thoughtfully design and plan your new kitchen.

This site will give you the information you need so you can make the choices that are right for you.  I will help you create an environment that you love living in and is set up for the activities of your real life, not a magazine or model home. The planning stage of home remodeling is the most important stage so take your time and do your research before making any decisions.

 

There are distinct areas where choices must be made.

  • The design and layout of the cabinets, appliances, lighting and plumbing are part of the planning process.
  • Choosing the finishes such as cabinet design and color, counter top choices and other room finishes and decorations relate to the kitchen design and decorating.

It is a lot more fun to think about the finishes but the most important thing is that your new kitchen works and functions for you and your family’s needs now and in the future. Getting your kitchen design online is an easy way to research your new kitchen.

PLAN: First step to a new kitchen

Start your new kitchen design plan by finding out your options.Researching now will make decision making easier later. It is easy to get confused when you don’t have a plan so I have included all the most important areas you need to consider.

DESIGN: Deciding on the look of your new kitchen

We all have our own ideas of the perfect kitchen design but now is the time to do a bit of exploring and challenge those ideas. If there is someone else involved in the decision making then you definitely have to do some research to find out where your different ideas can fit together.

SELECT: Making decisions on products and finishes

After  planning and designing the layout and look of your new kitchen it is time to  make some decisions. The basic kitchen design can vary in cost depending on the choices you make at this stage. Laminate or granite counters? Square frame cabinet doors or miter corners?  What about glass doors, crown molding or pot drawers?

DECORATE: Pull it all together with final touches.

Decorating your new kitchen can be fun but if you are happy just to get your sink back you may not have the mental energy to think about the finishing touches that complete your new look.

It is important to include the decorating aspect in your overall kitchen design plan so when your project is complete you will achieve the finished look you first imagined.

In my 25 years as a kitchen designer and design consultant I have found that there is a big difference between leading edge kitchen design ideas and what the average real person wants to achieve in their new kitchen design. I will offer up my opinion gathered from many years of helping homeowners to realize their dreams and desires, not my own. Also having done many home renovations and at least 10 of my own kitchen remodeling jobs I have figured out where to save some money as well. All this I hope to pass on to you.
