What to Expect in Your Online Kitchen Design Package
by Essential Kitchen Design
·
A professional layout service, tailored to your kitchen
Our online kitchen design package is a fixed-fee, documentation-first service created to support homeowners, cabinet makers, and builders with clear, practical design outputs. Every plan is developed with functionality, layout clarity, and buildability in mind.
Here’s what’s included.
1. Design Brief Submission
We begin with your completed Design Details Survey—an online form that gathers essential project information. You’ll be asked to provide:
-
Measured dimensions of your kitchen
-
Site photos (if renovating)
-
Existing plans (if available)
-
Appliance selections
-
Visual references or style direction
To support this step, we recommend using the Existing Space Measure Guide to ensure accurate and complete room measurements.
2. Custom 2D Floor Plan
Your layout will be developed to suit the specific constraints and opportunities of your space. Each plan includes:
-
Cabinetry layout and zoning
-
Appliance positioning
-
Circulation and work triangle logic
This drawing is provided in a clean 2D format for quoting and trade use.
3. Cabinetry Elevations
Each joinery run is shown in straight-on elevation, illustrating:
-
Cabinet heights and widths
-
Drawer and door configurations
-
Integration of appliances
-
Splashback and bench height relationships
These elevations support pricing, manufacturing, and coordination with cabinet makers or suppliers.
4. Three 3D Perspectives
To aid spatial understanding, your package includes three 3D views. These help communicate layout intent and visual proportion to both clients and trades.
They are not stylised renders—they are created to support decision-making and documentation review.
5. Fixtures and Finishes Overview
Based on your preferences, we’ll outline a selection of fixtures and finishes suited to your kitchen design. This may include:
-
Cabinet colours and profiles
-
Benchtop materials
-
Tapware and handle finishes
-
Splashback suggestions
If you have specific materials or suppliers in mind, we’ll incorporate those into the overall plan.
6. Appliance Planning
Appliances are factored into the layout from the outset—whether you’ve selected models or are working with provisional sizing. Clearances, workflow, and placement logic are all addressed early to minimise on-site decision-making later.
7. Documentation Delivery
Your complete kitchen design package is provided as a PDF file, suitable for:
-
Cabinet maker quoting
-
Builder coordination
-
Client reference
All files are delivered digitally, within 14 days of confirmed brief and measurements.
Final Notes
This service is intentionally minimal and structured. Our aim is not to over-design, but to support the practical delivery of a well-planned kitchen—designed for your space, your trades, and your timeline.
