What to bring to a kitchen design consultation
You don't need to arrive with everything decided — but a few things will help us get much further in the first appointment.
Rough measurements of the room are the single most useful thing: length, width, ceiling height and the position of windows and doors.
Photos help enormously, especially of the corners and anything unusual — a boiler, a chimney breast, a low window sill.
Bring any plans if building work is involved. Working from architects' drawings from the start avoids redesign later.
Save a handful of images of kitchens you like, and note what you like about each one. It's often the worktop or the handles rather than the whole room.
Lastly, come with a sense of your priorities: more storage, better seating, a specific appliance. Constraints make for better designs.
