Orange County Kitchen Design and Planning
Posted on June 20, 2008 - Filed Under kitchen design plan, Kitchen Designer, Kitchen Design |
Orange County is a great place to be a kitchen designer. There were an enormous number of tract homes built here with kitchens hastily thrown together by builders pressed to meet the growing demand as more and more people discovered the desirability of the area. This provides a wealth of opportunity for any design professional.
As a result, you have youngsters and semi-retired people who have only a year or two’s experience designing kitchens at a big box store, artistic types with years of experience working at boutique style kitchen design studios and everything in between.
In order to be successful as a kitchen and bath designer in Orange County one needs to understand the requirements and expectations of the people you wish to serve.
For example one family may live in a modestly priced tract and require very little attention to decorative detail but a good deal of attention given to utilizing every bit of kitchen space available while working with a very limited budget.
Another family lives in an exclusive upscale community and requires a much more sophisticated approach to the aesthetics of their kitchen wanting above all to make a powerful artistic statement using the kitchen as their palette.
If the designer is working with people whose requirements are far below what they are capable of providing then the designer will most likely feel frustrated and not do very well. Likewise, if the client demands a level of expertise and or creativity beyond the designer’s current ability then the client will lose confidence and look elsewhere.
