A kitchen affects walls, floors, electricity, water and ventilation. Use one final installation drawing and agree when the room must be ready.
A situation to test your plan against
In a compact living space, a large window may compete with the only wall for storage or a desk. Map required functions first. Light, privacy and storage need to fit on the same plan.
Use the technical drawing
A visualisation does not include every connection dimension. Provide the trades with the installation plan and communicate amendments.
What the drawing needs to explain
Draw fixed furniture, sightlines and opening windows together. Allow room for screening so it does not later obstruct cupboards, heaters or passages.
Compare the complete intervention
Compare glazing, storage and finishes as a connected package. A larger opening can require additional bespoke work when standard cupboards no longer fit their original position.
Questions for your own property
- Does everyone have the same drawing?
- When are dimensions final?
- Who finishes the remaining work?
