Steps to Design Your Kitchen

From Vision to Reality—Made Simple

Designing a kitchen can feel overwhelming, but with the right plan, it’s an exciting journey. Whether you’re building new or renovating, here are the key steps to create a kitchen that’s functional, beautiful, and tailored to your lifestyle.

🏡 1. Define Your Goals & Budget

Start by identifying what you want from your kitchen:

• More storage?

• Better layout?

• Modern style?

• Entertaining space?

Also, set a realistic budget—this will guide your material and appliance choices.

📐 2. Choose Your Layout

Select a layout that fits your space and needs:

• L-Shaped – Open and versatile

• U-Shaped – Maximum storage and workspace

• Galley – Great for smaller or narrow kitchens

• Island or Peninsula – Adds prep space and social flow

Our designers can help you map out a functional workflow using the kitchen work triangle (sink, stove, fridge).

🎨 3. Select Your Style & Colours

Choose a theme that reflects your personality and home:

• Modern: Flat-panel cabinetry, handleless, matte finishes

• Classic: Shaker doors, warm tones, tiled splashbacks

• Coastal or Hamptons: Whites, blues, timber, glass-front cabinetry

Create a cohesive palette for cabinetry, benchtops, splashbacks, and flooring.

🔧 4. Pick Your Materials

Choose practical and stylish surfaces based on your budget:

• Benchtops: Laminate, engineered stone, granite, Dekton, porcelain

• Cabinetry: Melamine, MDF, timber veneer, acrylic

• Splashbacks: Tiles, stone, glass, stainless steel

We’ll help you balance look, durability, and cost.

🔌 5. Plan Appliances & Fixtures

Select appliances early so cabinetry and cut-outs can be designed around them:

• Oven, cooktop, rangehood

• Dishwasher, fridge, microwave

• Sink, tapware, lighting, power outlets

Consider integration and energy efficiency where possible.

✏️ 6. Finalise the Design with 3D Visuals

Once selections are made, we create a 3D design to help you visualise:

• Layout and workflow

• Colours and materials

• Lighting and spacing

We make revisions until you’re 100% happy.

🛠️ 7. Manufacture & Installation

Your kitchen is custom-built by our experienced team and installed with precision. We coordinate everything—plumbing, electrical, cabinetry, and benchtops—for a smooth, stress-free process.

✅ 8. Enjoy Your New Kitchen

Once complete, you’ll have a stylish, functional space built to suit your daily life—and a lasting asset that adds value to your home.
