Our Kitchen Design-Build Process

Your luxury kitchen remodeling project starts by understanding how you live, cook, and gather. The goal of this meeting is to clarify your vision, preferences, and investment range. Our team will document the existing space and identify opportunities for improved flow, storage, and functionality.

Our designers develop preliminary layouts, sketches, and ideas that bring new possibilities to life for your kitchen. We conduct feasibility reviews and provide an early cost estimate to align with the project before moving into the design phase.

The concepts evolve into fully realized plans with elevations, material selections, and appliance specifications. We guide you through cabinetry, surfaces, fixtures, and lighting choices, while refining the budget to meet your needs.

Once permits are secured, our team will bring your design to life with precision and care. Your project manager will provide weekly updates and on-site meetings for transparency, progress, and a smooth experience from start to finish.

Upon project completion, we will review every detail to make sure the new kitchen meets our standards. Our team supports you long after the project wraps up with a 5-year warranty and a dedicated handyman team.

Smart home technology can improve both the functionality and style in a luxury kitchen.

Luxury kitchens commonly feature materials like wide-plank hardwood, stone tile, large-format porcelain, and engineered wood. These options provide excellent durability and are easy to maintain. Natural stone provides a refined character, hardwood adds warmth, and porcelain delivers exceptional strength, ensuring your flooring withstands heavy use.
