Design & Cabinetry for the San Francisco Bay Area

(click here if kitchen design only – available globally)

AlterECO’s Personalized Design Services Package (PDSP) is a cost-effective, enjoyable approach to professional, ecologically-responsible kitchen design that is tailored to your life. Our services include: in-depth consultation, detailed drawings, a clear cabinetry estimate, and specifications – providing a beautiful, highly functional design that truly fits your life – including a healthier, happier home and planet. We also provide fine-quality cabinetry for clients in our local San Francisco Bay Area. While we design for a variety of eco-friendly materials, AlterECO cabinets feature bamboo – due it’s natural beauty, modern/transitional aesthetic, and regenerative qualities.

Contents – The PDSP includes the following:

• Preparation: We begin with a thorough review of your project. Whether you have no drawings at all, a simple sketch or detailed architectural drawings, AlterECO’s design process will be shaped to your needs.
• Consultation: We will communicate via email, phone, and/or zoom to clarify details of the project and to discuss exciting possibilities (relax & enjoy!)
• Collaboration: We will work closely with you, and we are happy to collaborate with others on your design team (if you have one) – architect / interior designer / contractor / cabinetmaker.
• Design Drawings + Specs: We will create design drawings (plan, elevation & perspective views) that clearly indicate the desired features. We will also provide design specifications documentation.
• Estimate: Our detailed price estimate is a valuable tool for budget-setting and cost comparison. It guarantees the best possible price and availability, if you decide to buy AlterECO’s bamboo cabinets.
• Beyond Cabinets: While cabinetry forms the heart of the kitchen and is thus the focus of our process, the PDSP also offers guidance in selecting and sourcing hardware/accessories, countertops, backsplash, appliances, sinks, flooring, and more – that are aligned with our (and your) eco-friendly values.

Basis: The PDSP services are based on a “typical” 10×10 kitchen layout. Larger &/or more complex projects may require an increased design fee. We will strive to accurately assess this at the beginning, and we will also alert you if changes to the job are leading to a higher design cost than anticipated. Regardless of project size or complexity, the PDSP assures the most cost-effective approach. And your investment in the PDSP will be fully applied to your AlterECO cabinetry purchase!

Timeline: We recommend allowing 6-8 weeks to work through the design process together. A rewarding remodel or renovation is one that’s not rushed. Taking the time for mindful design can be critical to long-term satisfaction

Not ready? If you simply need a general sense of affordability, please send us any drawings (even basic sketches) of your currently envisioned kitchen &/or bath cabinet layout and submit a completed Project Information Sheet from our website to qualify for a free 30 minute initial consultation and a ballpark estimate range. Design services are also available on an hourly basis, starting at $125. We do recommend the PDSP, as the comprehensive approach will help assure a cost-effective, complete design and a satisfying journey to get there!
