Design It is important to find potential problems in the design phase. We always measure the space ourselves, photograph the space, and do a thorough inspection of the site. This allows us to create a detailed and accurate plan of the room. Prior to design we also investigate any zoning and/or structural issues that will need to be addressed. In our first design meeting we conduct an in-depth interview. We identify your goals and desires for the space. We discuss your tastes, various products and construction methods. We take into account such things as cooking styles, daily habits and ergonomics We aim to design a custom space that will work best for you. Next we develop several designs. Once the best design has been selected, a detailed plan will be drawn on the computer. Plans include floorplans and elevations, as well as cabinetry schedules, electrical plans and a complete scope of work describing the proper work methods and products to be used in the plan. The end result is a construction document that is your property that clearly specifies the work to be done. It ensures that if you decide to get bids from other contractors that they are bidding on an "apples to apples" basis. Three-dimensional color drawings are provided to help clients visualize the space. Many people have difficulty understanding construction documents and we have found that our artistic renderings are extremely helpful. We are able to imitate actual cabinet styles, appliances, fixtures, tile and granites to create life-like drawings. We are active members of the National Kitchen and Bath Association (NKBA) and our staff includes a certified kitchen and bathroom designer. We are well informed of the products, trends and methods of the industry, as well as styles and construction concerns specific to the Philadelphia region. We believe that form follows function, therefore we strive for practical designs that will enhance our clients lives. We design spaces that are both functional and beautiful.
