What Is Kitchen Design?

Kitchen design is more than just picking out cabinets or countertops—it’s about shaping a space that works for your lifestyle. From layout and storage to lighting and finishes, every element should make your kitchen more functional, inviting, and reflective of your taste.

We design spaces that support how you cook, live, and connect—from quiet mornings to big celebrations. The right design ensures your kitchen isn’t just beautiful—it works for you.

Benefits of Thoughtful Kitchen Design

At Atlas Home Improvement, we believe every kitchen should reflect how you live. Here’s why investing in smart design pays off:

  • Better Workflow: Everything from appliances to prep space is placed for convenience and flow.
  • Personal Style: Your design reflects your tastes—modern, traditional, or something unique.
  • More Storage: Creative cabinetry and smart solutions make clutter disappear.
  • Natural Light & Energy: Good design amplifies light, comfort, and atmosphere.

Is It Time to Redesign Your Kitchen?

If any of these sound familiar, you might benefit from a fresh kitchen design:

You’ll love a redesign if you:

  • Need more counter space or a better layout flow
  • Struggle with storage or outdated cabinetry
  • Want a space that reflects your current lifestyle and taste
  • Are planning to host or cook more often

You might delay a redesign if you:

  • Are satisfied with your kitchen’s layout and look
  • Rarely use your kitchen or cook minimal meals
  • Have recently renovated and don’t need updates

How We Design Your Dream Kitchen

Every home and family is unique. That’s why our kitchen design process is built around you—from layout planning to finishing touches.

Understanding Your Space

We begin by learning how you use your kitchen—what works, what doesn’t, and what you’d love to change. Then we assess your space and layout options to maximize function and aesthetics.

Designing for Your Life

  • The Work Triangle: Optimal placement of stove, sink, and refrigerator for seamless cooking.
  • Zone Planning: Defined areas for prepping, cooking, eating, and entertaining.
  • Island Options: A multipurpose kitchen island adds storage, seating, and workspace.
  • Storage Solutions: Customized cabinetry and organizers to keep things tidy.

Finishing Touches That Tie It Together

Lighting, flooring, fixtures, and colors—all coordinated for a cohesive look and feel. We ensure your kitchen looks great and works even better.

Kitchen Layouts

A well-planned kitchen layout is the foundation of great design. It ensures that your space flows efficiently, feels comfortable, and supports how you cook, entertain, and live every day. At Atlas Home Improvement, we specialize in crafting layouts that maximize space, style, and functionality.

U-Shaped Kitchens

This layout surrounds the cook with three connected walls of cabinetry and countertops, offering abundant prep space and storage. It’s ideal for serious cooks who want room to spread out and keep everything within reach.

L-Shaped Kitchens

A popular and versatile choice, the L-shaped kitchen uses two adjoining walls to create a natural work triangle. It fits well in both small kitchens and open-plan homes and allows for added features like islands or dining nooks.

Open Concept Kitchens

This layout blends the kitchen with adjacent living and dining areas, creating a welcoming, social space. Perfect for families and entertainers, open layout kitchens make it easy to cook, connect, and keep an eye on everything happening around you.

Whatever your space or style, our design team will customize your layout to match your workflow, habits, and lifestyle.

Popular Kitchen Design Styles

Choosing a kitchen style is one of the most exciting parts of the design process. Whether you’re drawn to sleek minimalism or rustic warmth, your kitchen should reflect your taste and how you want to feel in the space. Here are some of the most popular styles we work with:

Modern

Clean lines, minimal details, and smooth surfaces define modern kitchens. Think flat-front cabinets, slab countertops, and a neutral palette with bold accent colors or textures.

Traditional

Classic and timeless, traditional kitchens feature luxury features, rich woods, ornate details, raised-panel cabinets, and often include decorative moldings and vintage-inspired fixtures.

Transitional

A perfect blend of traditional warmth and modern simplicity. Transitional kitchens combine clean lines with classic touches for a balanced, inviting look that works in almost any home.

Farmhouse

Comfortable and cozy, farmhouse kitchens highlight natural materials, apron-front sinks, open shelving, and vintage or rustic accents that bring charm and character.

Scandinavian

Simple yet functional, this style emphasizes light woods, soft colors, minimal clutter, and natural light. Scandinavian kitchens are known for their clean design and serene vibe.

Industrial

Inspired by urban lofts and factories, industrial kitchens feature raw materials like exposed brick, metal fixtures, open shelving, and utilitarian surfaces.

Coastal

Airy and relaxed, coastal kitchens draw inspiration from the beach with soft blues, whites, light woods, and breezy textures. Ideal for creating a laid-back, vacation-at-home feel.

Not sure what your style is? Our designers will help you explore options, mix elements, and create a look that feels just right for you.

"This was our second experience with Atlas. The shower in our last home was truly a primary selling feature. We returned to Atlas because of the quality of the job and the professionalism of the install. We were happy to see the same installers we had at our other house three years ago arrive here today. Chad and Bill did an excellent job. We received the same professionalism and quality we expected. They arrived with all the materials they would need, no hidden surprises, quality materials. They truly live up to everything they promise!"

"Recently, Atlas Home Improvement finished the second phase of my bathroom remodel. Matt and Chad were here every morning on time, stated in their morning phone call. They were friendly, efficient, knew their job and the job site was always in order and clean. They even went out of their way to make sure I was aware of all aspects of the job. They were GREAT!!! This is a great company!!! Very clean and considerate while putting in my new shower. Time the sales consultant was wonderful and really listened to what I want and was never pushy or tried to sell me something I didn't want. David did a wonderful job installing my shower. Great product they sell. I recommend this company highly!"

"Dave put in a stair lift for me and I was very, very pleased with the whole experience. He assessed the situation with an eye on my safety and recommended changing the side of the staircase the lift was to be installed on. He did the installation quietly and quickly and without creating any mess. And he made sure I understood how the equipment worked and watched me test ride it. I could not have been more satisfied with the whole process. I would highly recommend Atlas to any senior looking to modify their home so that they can age in place."

– Dorrie R.

Review Image

"We were experiencing temperature problems with our brand new walk-in tub, in that the temperature would not get very hot. After a call to Atlas we were scheduled by the office staff for an appointment within 2 days, which we very much appreciated. Dave arrived on time and immediately diagnosed the problem - and he quickly fixed it. Dave was very professional, pleasant, friendly, and knowledgeable. Our problem has now been fixed! Thank you Atlas for having such a great installation, office, and repair staff."

– Norv S.

"We had our shower completely re-done by Dave. It was a custom job that involved replacing a sub floor and some plumbing issues. They were friendly, hard workers, our shower turned out perfect! I strongly recommend Atlas Home Improvement they stand by their work!"

– Sherry G.

Review Image

"Our dealings with Atlas Home Improvement have been nothing but a delight. We had booked them through Home Depot Home Services which had a salesman come out and was easy to deal with and took his time to explain all of the steps to the process. Atlas delivered the exact way they had promised we were in the loop knowing when our materials were ordered when they came in and to finally setting up the appointment. The workmanship was 5 star excellent and we could not have been happier with our new shower enclosure it really made a difference!"
