Often, homeowners who decide to remodel or construct a new kitchen, have a hard time planning the kitchen layout. Paper drawings and even 2D plans can’t necessarily give you the full picture. But, there’s a solution for that. If you’ve found yourself struggling with this very same issue, be sure to read on.

3D design uses simulation software to give you a realistic view of your future remodels. It is usually done in these few steps:
1. Measurements: a very important step for both the customers and designers
2. Walls: the walls should be drawn in a clockwise direction.
3. Cabinets: (base cabinets, wall cabinets, aligned (base and wall), symmetry (left and right side), toe kick)
4. Appliances
5. Layout: customers will print it out and use it as a guide during cabinet installation.
6. Decorations
7. Rendering: the end result
Below, we have some explanations of how a 3D design could be beneficial for you:
HEIGHTS, DEPTHS, AND OTHER DIMENSIONS ARE EASIER TO VISUALIZE
This is the major benefit of 3D design. You can more easily visualize all the dimensions of the kitchen layout. You get a complete understanding of how the cabinets, countertops, and other appliances will fit together in your space. Also, if you’re having a hard time deciding on the size of your cabinets, click here and see which one is right for you. The size of your appliances, for instance, will depend on your preference and the layout itself. For a little help, keep in mind these standard appliance sizes:
Refrigerator 36” wide
Stove 30” wide
Dishwasher 24” wide
Microwave 30” (over the stove)
In the picture below you can see the layout of your kitchen design with all the measurements.

DESIGNS CAN BE CHANGED WITH MINIMAL EFFORT
Once your kitchen layout is already established inside your home, you can’t do much about it. But 3D design will take out all the guesswork. It allows you to virtually see any corner of your kitchen. You can see if your kitchen island fits perfectly or if it’s actually bigger than you thought. You can change your mind about pretty much everything without any hassle.

LESS MONEY
3D design can prevent changes during the construction process and ultimately may help you save a lot of money. Changing plans mid-construction can be expensive as well as time-consuming. Having the ability to visualize the space can give a clear picture of the finished product.
FEWER MISTAKES
A design might seem almost perfect when you talk about it or even while looking at a blueprint. But with a 3D design, you exactly know what you wanted and what you agreed to. If something seems off to you, you always have some insight into what the final product will look like.
LESS TIME

3D modeling takes less time to reach the final design. As previously mentioned, you can change designs almost effortlessly and easily correct any mistakes. This gives a much quicker final product for your home. Depending on the size of the kitchen, at Nelson Cabinetry, a free 3D design usually takes 30 minutes to 1 hour to be created.
