More information
A Kitchen Designer creates plans and designs for kitchens for their clients. You’ll liaise with customers to determine their needs and come up with a layout. Kitchen Designers might take measurements and draw up plans and specifications. You might source materials and work with builders or cabinet makers to carry out a kitchen project.
Kitchen Designers should be creative and up to date with current kitchen trends. It’s important you can understand client needs and communicate well with industry stakeholders. Kitchen Designers must be organised and be able to handle several projects at one time.
