​Finished Project #29: Charlotte, NC

PHASE 1
This is the initial phase where we have conversations with our client to discuss the challenges they’re facing with their home and brainstorm solutions leveraging our design and planning team.

What challenges is our client leveraging us to solve?

  • We’re reimagining the kitchen footprint by converting the existing island into a bigger one.

  • Cabinets will be repainted and extended to the ceiling, paired with updated hardware, a new countertop, and a modern backsplash.

We began with a walk-through of the home to understand the clients’ goals and assess areas for improvement. That first visit gave us the information needed to move forward with a clear, practical design plan.

We created 2D layout options to evaluate different ways to configure the space. These drawings helped us assess improvements in flow and functionality and prepared us for the next step in the planning process.

We met with the homeowners to review layouts, materials, and design concepts. These meetings allowed us to fine-tune the plan and make sure every choice reflected their goals for the space.
