Open Plan Kitchen Design in Solihull

Thoughtful layout design for modern open-plan living — before you commit to building work.

Start Your Next Adventure

Most open-plan kitchen projects in Solihull start with the same challenge —
how to bring kitchen, dining, and living areas together without losing functionality.

Whether you're planning an extension or reconfiguring your existing layout,
the success of the space depends on how well it is planned before any building work begins.

I specialise in space planning and layout design, helping you explore the best possible configurations for your home — so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.

Open-plan kitchen design in Solihull typically includes:

  • Reconfiguring layouts for extensions and renovations

  • Creating functional kitchen–dining–living zones

  • Optimising circulation and flow between areas

  • Designing kitchen layouts with islands and storage

  • Planning layouts before structural changes

Beyond layout, the design stage can also include:

  • Concept design — defining the overall look, style, and atmosphere of the space

  • Material and finish selection — cabinetry, worktops, flooring, and colour palettes

  • Lighting design — planning functional and ambient lighting across zones

  • Furniture and fixture selection — ensuring consistency and practicality

For projects that require detailed execution:

  • Technical drawings for builders

  • Electrical and lighting plans

  • Joinery design and detailing

  • Specifications for materials, fixtures, and finishes

Each project can be tailored depending on how much support you need — from layout-only planning to a complete design and technical package.

Layout first — before design decisions

Before choosing finishes or furniture, I focus on:

  • How the space works

  • How you move through it

  • How each zone connects

This ensures your open-plan space is not only beautiful — but practical, comfortable, and efficient to live in every day.

Example: Open-plan kitchen transformation Hollywood, Birmingham

  • Original layout: separate kitchen and dining rooms

  • Challenge: poor flow and underused conservatory

  • Solution: reconfigured layout with extension and zoning

  • Result: functional open-plan kitchen with island, dining, and improved circulation
