Discovery
The experience begins in our showroom as a one-on-one collaboration with one of our highly trained design team members. If you already have plans or dimensioned sketches, we invite you to bring them to your appointment; if you don’t, simply bring your ideas about what would make the ideal kitchen for your family. We’ll introduce you to the vast array of products and design solutions available to you. Together, we’ll talk about your unique needs — including space requirements, materials, finishes, and appliances — and, of course, schedule and budget. Together, we’ll explore how transformative design can enhance your space, blending aesthetic appeal with functional improvements.
Initial Presentation
During this second phase, your Kd. designer will meet with you to review everything discussed during the Discovery phase and present initial design concepts tailored to your needs, space, and vision. We’ll walk you through our creative direction, introduce suggested materials and product ideas, and share the inspiration and rationale behind our approach.
By the end of this meeting, you’ll have a clear understanding of our design intent and process. If you’re ready to move forward, we’ll create a retainer agreement to initiate the next phase — the Design & Development of your project.
*This initial fee, based on the overall scope of your project, will be credited toward the cost of your Kd. cabinetry purchase. It is non-refundable should you choose not to proceed.
Design & Development
Now, the real fun begins! In this phase, we’ll develop and refine your kitchen design based on site conditions, and measurements. While Kitchen Distributors does not provide structural, mechanical, or construction documents, we work closely with architects, contractors, and/or any other trade professionals that may be required to ensure seamless integration of our designs within the larger project scope.
Your Kd. designer will produce a complete set of cabinetry-focused drawings, including detailed layouts, elevations, dimensions, and appliance and plumbing integration plans. We’ll also finalize material selections, finishes, and provide all cabinetry and design specifications — giving the build team the clarity they need for a smooth execution.
Final Presentation + Agreement
In this phase, we will present the final design, including all cabinetry drawings, and formal agreements for approval. At this time, the final product selections and project timeline are confirmed; then, upon receipt of a 50% deposit, final drawings and specifications are released to the appropriate parties — and the project proceeds to the fabrication phase.
Fabrication
Following the detailed guidelines in our meticulously crafted drawings, specifications, and approved samples, our master cabinetmakers will begin to create your dream kitchen. Your Kd. design team will assist in the final selection of actual stone slabs, tiles, and other design elements and coordinate the installation schedule, including the arrival of all essential elements.
Installation & Construction
Kd. collaborates with specialized contractors to offer comprehensive turnkey remodeling and construction services. Our team coordinates seamlessly with these experts, ensuring a smooth project from start to finish. With extensive experience in overseeing projects, we serve as a single point of contact throughout every phase of your project, guaranteeing a successful and hassle-free completion.
After-Completion Support
At Kd., we understand that you’re making a dual investment in your new kitchen — both financial and emotional — and we are dedicated to ensuring satisfying returns on both. After your installation has been completed, your designer will meet with you in your home to familiarize you with your new kitchen’s features and confirm satisfaction down to the smallest detail. This is one of the most thrilling moments for our designers and clients alike, and we look forward to sharing it with you.
