I require an experienced interior designer to conceptualise and visualise the design of an extended kitchen and lounge area for a residential home. The project involves the design of a newly added space that will combine the existing kitchen with an adjacent lounge to create a more open concept living and dining space.
The successful designer must be proficient in 3D modelling software to develop detailed floor plans, elevations and renderings displaying furniture layout options, cabinetry designs, appliance selections, countertop materials, lighting fixtures and decorative accessories. The design scheme should have a clean, modern aesthetic with an emphasis on functionality. Storage and workspace are priorities for the kitchen redesign.
In addition to the technical drawings, a comprehensive design board or presentation displaying the proposed design concept, finishes, fixtures and proposed materials is required. Key aspects such as flooring, wall, ceiling and trim treatments must be specified. Considerations for plumbing and electrical layouts should also be incorporated into the initial design phase.
Ongoing consultation will be provided to refine details and select final finishes within the client's budget. Permits and any structural engineering documents required to realise the extension are not included in this project. The ideal candidate will have proven experience designing integrated kitchen and living spaces, an eye for functionality and aesthetics and the ability to effectively communicate design ideas and solutions to the client.
