Planning a built-in begins with fully understanding the client’s needs and preferences, as these drive every design decision. In this example, the client wants a modern farmhouse style to complement their nearby kitchen, which features shaker-style fronts. The built-in will also use shaker fronts, but with a subtler, less decorative approach. By aligning design choices with existing elements and the client’s vision, the project maintains both functionality and aesthetic harmony, ensuring the final piece fits seamlessly into the surrounding space.
✅ Client wishes and needs guide the entire design process.
✅ Chosen style: modern farmhouse to match the home’s aesthetic.
✅ Shaker-style fronts selected for consistency with the kitchen.
✅ Adjusted detailing to achieve a subtler, less ornate look.
