PHASE 1:  GATHER THE INGREDIENTS

Our first step on this journey is for us to get to know more about you and for you to get know more about us!

→ Contact us to schedule an appointment, so that our designer may give you undivided attention!

→ Review your house/project plan, determine scope of work, timeline requirements

→ Brainstorm ideas, preferences, needs, wants &  wishes, appliances & plumbing

→ Discuss cabinet/door style options, finishes & related costs relative to

budget comfort zone

→ Establish basic layout and selections for initial estimate

~ Feel free to bring along your architect, builder or contractor to this initial consultation and subsequent meetings – we find it very helpful!  Don’t have one yet?  No worries, we can provide recommendations! ~

PHASE 2: TEST THE RECIPE

Here, we’re focused on aligning the ingredients – those needs, wants and wishes we discussed earlier – with your house/project plan and budget.

→ Present preliminary floor plan layout(s) & pricing

→ Discuss pros & cons, alternatives & options

→ Agree upon design vision & workable budget

→ Establish intent to move forward with Phase 3

→ Collect design retainer for 3D drawings and additional design work (the amount is deducted from your deposit when you purchase cabinets from us!)

PHASE 3: FINE-TUNE THE RECIPE

Now we’re cooking!  We’ll take everything we’ve done so far and keep working at it until it is exactly the space you’ve dreamed of!

→ Schedule site visit for field measure, if site is ready (if not, we will conduct this step in Phase 4)

→ Complete & present 3D drawings for review

→ Fine-tune layout

→ Finalize cabinetry selections, organizational tools & inserts

→ Obtain final appliance & plumbing selections

→ Discuss hardware options

→ Finalize drawings

→ Finalize pricing

→ Review timing & builder responsibilities (lighting, site readiness/conditions, etc.)

→ Proposal sign-off

→ Collect deposit
