Start with workflow
Map how you prepare, cook, clean, store food, and move through the room. Prioritize changes that improve daily use.
Cabinetry and storage
Plan drawers, pantry storage, cabinet heights, appliance clearances, hardware, and organization around the items you actually use.
Surfaces and backsplash
Compare countertop durability, maintenance, seams, edge profiles, backsplash height, and how materials work together.
Lighting and power
Plan ambient, task, and accent lighting. Confirm appliance requirements, receptacles, switching, and under-cabinet lighting early.
Schedule and temporary use
Material lead times and trade sequencing matter. Plan how the household will function while the kitchen is unavailable.
