1. Where do I start if I want to renovate my kitchen?
The first step is to define your needs and your budget. The general rule of thumb is to allocate 10% to 15% of the value of your home to the kitchen. You can then contact us to schedule an initial meeting at the showroom or at your home with a kitchen designer. We will take the measurements of your current kitchen and propose a 3D layout tailored to your needs and budget. Afterwards, it is important to plan the entire renovation or layout of your kitchen, including the style, materials, colours and timeline. Here is a link to several interesting videos on planning, trends, style, etc.
2. How do I prepare for the first appointment?
After making an appointment, you need to define your needs and your style. It is important to ask yourself the following questions: What do you like about your current kitchen? What are your storage needs? Do you cook and entertain guests often? Our kitchen designers will provide you with the necessary tools to prepare you for your first meeting. These tools will be very useful to design a custom kitchen taking into consideration your inspirations, your lifestyle and your needs, while proposing a functional and sustainable layout.
3. How do I choose my kitchen style and where do I get inspiration?
It is important to have a coherent style with the whole house. First, define the character and atmosphere you want to give to your new kitchen. Our kitchen designers will guide you towards the style that will harmonise all your ideas and needs, and of course, the right materials!

4. How to choose the right materials?
There are many different types of materials, all with different prices and benefits. It is important to consider your lifestyle, cooking habits, family situation, current style of your home, etc., as well as your budget to determine which materials are right for you. Here are some examples: laminate, European laminate, polyester, imitation lacquer, lacquer, wood veneer, solid wood, highly engineered.
