Discovery
The experience begins in our showroom as a one-on-one collaboration with a member of our highly trained design team. 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.
Initial Presentation
During the second phase, your Kd. designer will meet with you to discuss everything that was brought up during the Discovery phase and review the proposed estimate. We will go over our ideas for the project, as well as suggested finishes, product recommendations and the rationales behind our choices. By the end of this meeting, we hope you will have enough information to proceed to the next phase, and will create a retainer agreement to cover the ongoing development of your concept.
*This initial fee, which is based on the overall scope of your project, will be credited towards the cost of cabinetry when you place your project order, but is non-refundable if you decide not to proceed.
Design & Development
Now the real fun begins! We’ll work to develop, refine and finalize your design—including structural and mechanical considerations, site conditions and dimensions, and communication with architects and general contractors. Kd. will create a complete set of construction documents and present sketches, interpretive drawings, and computer renderings to help you fully visualize the new space. We’ll finalize details, materials, finishes, appliances and accessories, then generate an itemized list of specifications for a clearly defined scope of work through project completion.
Final Presentation + Agreement
During this phase, we will present all the drawings and construction documents as well as a formal agreement for approval. At this time, the final product selections and project timeline are confirmed; then, upon receipt of a 50% deposit, detailed drawings and specifications are released to the appropriate parties—and the project proceeds to the fabrication phase.
Fabrication
Using our detailed drawings, specifications and approved samples as their guide, 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.
