Custom Kitchen Design, Layout Planning & Permit Drawings  Buckhead, Sandy Springs & North Atlanta

Schedule a kitchen remodel consultation

Your kitchen is one of the most used—and most complex—spaces in your home.

At Delano Designs, we specialize in kitchen remodeling design in Atlanta, helping homeowners in Buckhead, Sandy Springs, Roswell, Alpharetta, Marietta, and Smyrna transform outdated kitchens into highly functional, architecturally refined spaces.

Unlike traditional contractors, we take a design-first approach—resolving layout, materials, and construction details before the build begins.

This ensures your kitchen is not only visually refined—but built correctly from the start.


Designed Like an Architect, Without Hiring One.

Most homeowners in Atlanta face two options:

  • Hire an architect (expensive, slow)
  • Or rely on a contractor (design is secondary)


We bridge that gap.

  • Architectural-level kitchen design
  • Permit-ready construction drawings
  • Contractor-ready plans for accurate bidding

This approach eliminates guesswork, reduces costly changes, and creates a smoother construction process.


Investment & Timeline

Kitchen remodeling is one of the most detailed projects in a home.

It requires planning, coordination, and clear decision-making upfront to avoid delays and costly changes later.

  • Design + drafting typically takes 4–6 weeks
  • Projects include two revision rounds
  • construction phase of 3-4 weeks

Kitchen remodels in Atlanta vary based on size, layout changes, and material selections.

Typical ranges:

  • Small kitchens: $60K–$70K
  • Mid-size kitchens: $90K–$100K
  • Large kitchens: $120K+

Design services begin at:

  • $3,000+ for kitchen design + $500 for 3D Dollhouse

Our Process

Floor Plan: Designing How It Works

After the Home consult, we design the layout around your lifestyle.

We analyze:

  • How you move through the kitchen
  • Where bottlenecks currently exist
  • How multiple people use the space

Then we resolve:

  • Appliance placement
  • Island size and function
  • Storage strategy
  • Traffic flow and clearances

A well-planned layout is critical—it directly impacts efficiency, safety, and long-term usability. Mood Board: Defining the Vision


Through a curated mood board, we establish:


  • Material palette (stone, cabinetry, finishes)
  • Overall tone and style
  • Architectural details and influences

This ensures every decision moving forward is cohesive—not pieced together.


Permit-Ready Drawings (Atlanta & North Metro)

We create detailed construction documents required for permitting and construction.

  • Electrical plans
  • Plumbing layouts
  • Cabinet elevations
  • Construction details

This is where most remodels fail—and where we differ from typical designers.


Contractor Bidding & Project Support

We help you:

  • Compare contractor bids
  • Avoid pricing inconsistencies
  • Ensure the design is executed properly

This protects your investment and improves overall project outcomes, can save 10%+


Construction & Execution

We take the design from concept to completion with a clear, structured process.

Kitchen remodels involve multiple systems—plumbing, electrical, cabinetry, finishes—which is why expert coordination is critical.

Our role is to ensure:

  • The build aligns exactly with the design
  • Details are executed correctly
  • The process stays efficient and controlled
