Whether you’re renovating or building new, we can help you!
Starting is easy, with our 1-hr Kitchen Design Consultation.
In your e-meeting (Zoom, Facetime, or Google Meet), we’ll discuss your project and give you great tips and design feedback. Our Lead Designer Alison Kent loves a good puzzle, so don’t worry about bringing in the real tricky ones!
From there we can assess if/what further needs you might have and give you a quote, whether you need a few hours help with alternate layouts, all the way up to a full Design Package including 3D sketches.
Quick Notes:
Your Kitchen Design Consultation is not definite until it’s confirmed via email. You should get your confirmation within a few hours of booking!
The more information our Designer has beforehand, the more value you’ll get out of the meeting. Be ready with photos, measurements, existing/proposed plans, dream wish-lists and inspiration.

my approach
layouts
Beginning with all the ‘existing’ parameters, we’ll discuss layouts - how your Kitchen space is organized for maximum flow & function. Most cooks spend up to 80% of their time doing PREP, with other functions such as storage (refrigeration), cooking and cleanup radiating from there.
personality
Your Kitchen needs to be functional and efficient first and foremost. But also this is YOUR Kitchen, and it should reflect your personality, habits and design preferences. Are you usually two people but love to entertain in big groups? We’ll plan for that. Do you use the Island as an office? We’ll plan for that.
appliances
Appliance options have expanded significantly in the past few years, and are continuing to evolve. Finding the perfect Appliances for your needs goes hand in hand with creating effective layouts. Making a list of needs/wants - including perhaps a wine fridge, steam oven, second dishwasher, etc to review.
storage
Storage solutions go far beyond your cabinetry. Your Fridge/Freezer, Pantry, Wine Fridge, Kombucha shelves, wood cubbies, open shelving, all come together to keep your best food, dishwares, towels and more close at hand.
It all begins with YOU.
What you’re working with now, how you want it to change or stay the same.
What kind of space you dream of spending time and energy in.
What your cooking style is.
How you entertain, host and gather.
How you move.
