What is the process of working together from start to finish?
The process begins with an in-home planning consultation where I measure the room dimensions and check the position of venting, plumbing, and electrical lines, along with the specifications of all appliances. Then, I design the new kitchen using the IKEA® Kitchen Planner, providing you with a 3D rendering and a complete shopping list.
