Tip #1
Start with a Blank Slate Make a priority list Forget what’s in the kitchen now Sketch out the measurements on a blank
sheet of paper Remember that walls can be moved or
opened up
![Page 29: Design Your Dream Kitchen Presentation 2017](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062903/58ce68fc1a28ab2f268b7257/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Before: Clients wanted to make
the kitchen more central to the
home, without the wasted space of the hallway and
the long walk from the entry to the
kitchen
Entry
Hallway
Dining Room
Laundry Room
Tabl
e
Family Room
![Page 30: Design Your Dream Kitchen Presentation 2017](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062903/58ce68fc1a28ab2f268b7257/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
After: All communal rooms now stem off the
kitchen
The new plan eliminates the
hallway and opens up the kitchen to the entry, creating room
for an island and enhancing flow for
parties and gatherings
Dining Room
Family Room
Table
Entry
![Page 31: Design Your Dream Kitchen Presentation 2017](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062903/58ce68fc1a28ab2f268b7257/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

After: Looking into the kitchen from the dining room
![Page 33: Design Your Dream Kitchen Presentation 2017](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062903/58ce68fc1a28ab2f268b7257/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Before: Separate dining room, small island, oversized pantry
![Page 34: Design Your Dream Kitchen Presentation 2017](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062903/58ce68fc1a28ab2f268b7257/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

Take a Test Ride
![Page 36: Design Your Dream Kitchen Presentation 2017](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062903/58ce68fc1a28ab2f268b7257/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Tape off an area to show the new floor plan
![Page 37: Design Your Dream Kitchen Presentation 2017](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062903/58ce68fc1a28ab2f268b7257/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Trying it out
Use boxes for a new island or cabinets so you have to actually walk around them
Do normal activities to see how the new floor plan will work
Think about where you’ll set your grocery bags or other items when you walk into the kitchen
Consider all activities and go through the actual motions to ensure the new kitchen will function the way you expect it to
![Page 38: Design Your Dream Kitchen Presentation 2017](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062903/58ce68fc1a28ab2f268b7257/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Tip #3
Focus on One One focal point keeps the room balanced Select what you want to be the biggest
focus of the room Make sure it’s the only one
![Page 39: Design Your Dream Kitchen Presentation 2017](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062903/58ce68fc1a28ab2f268b7257/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
• The range with dramatic hood is the focal point
• Ornate stucco hood, side spice pullouts and onyx mosaic backsplash all help balance the
scale of the 30” range

It needs to relate to the scale of the room
![Page 41: Design Your Dream Kitchen Presentation 2017](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062903/58ce68fc1a28ab2f268b7257/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

After: The window has been removed,
and the French-style range is the focal
point
![Page 47: Design Your Dream Kitchen Presentation 2017](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062903/58ce68fc1a28ab2f268b7257/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)

Before: The posts were the focal point
![Page 50: Design Your Dream Kitchen Presentation 2017](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062903/58ce68fc1a28ab2f268b7257/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)

Move the microwave
Before: Microwave took up valuable counter space
![Page 60: Design Your Dream Kitchen Presentation 2017](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062903/58ce68fc1a28ab2f268b7257/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)

New windows and rain-sensing skylights open up the nook
![Page 65: Design Your Dream Kitchen Presentation 2017](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062903/58ce68fc1a28ab2f268b7257/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
