We begin your kitchen or bath design with an initial consultation, during which we look at your project and discuss your budget, and, of course, design and functionality issues. I will ask you lots of questions, and really listen to your answers.

After this meeting, I prepare a proposal for you that summarizes the project details, the services I will provide to design and implement your project, and my design fees for the project. Design fees are based on an estimated number of hours it will take to take your project from start to finish.

Once the proposal has been accepted, we meet again and discuss your project in more detail. I will measure and photograph the spaces, then work on creating a functional layout of the space, including electrical and plumbing, appliances, and custom cabinetry design. I also source options for tile, flooring, countertop, lighting and plumbing fixtures, wall treatments, cabinet hardware, and more.

During this phase, I present the design to you as it develops, and refine it to meet your aesthetic and functional needs. To communicate your design, I create and present floor plan drawings, elevations and renderings, and bring material samples for you to review.

Once the design has been approved, we begin the implementation phase. My team of trusted and experienced contractors and tradespeople will bring the designs to life.  I am “on-call” throughout the entire process to answer questions and address issues as they arise. I visit the job site, facilitate the procurement of all finish materials and products, and review items and finishes prior to installation. I am the liaison between you and the contractor. My goal is always to be as helpful as possible, providing information, guidance and support whenever needed.
