Start with function, then choose the look.
A beautiful palette works best when the layout supports your daily routines. Pair material inspiration with a practical look at kitchen work zones and storage needs.
Bring a small, useful reference collection.
Choose a few images and explain what you like in each: a cabinet profile, a calm backsplash, warm wood or the relationship between the kitchen and dining area. Separating those details is more useful than trying to recreate a photograph in a different room.
Make samples work together.
View cabinet, countertop, backsplash and floor samples in one place. Check them under daylight and evening lighting. Include existing elements that will remain, so the new kitchen feels connected to your home.
