Over the last 10+ years, we have been providing homeowners with schematic designs so they can dip their toe in the water and feel-out their “new” kitchen or bathroom before making a commitment. We find this important to foster early conversations around expectations with their remodeling team regarding timing, costs, and overall feel. Computer generated renderings to compare with an existing space allows everyone, including those who are “not visual” to see how their home can transform, and guide conversations with their designer as they make decisions regarding materials, opening walls, and improving practical items like increased countertop space and lighting.

Now at Design Set Match, we can also provide a 360° panorama of our Schematic Designs, that homeowners can access online (anonymously) at their leisure from their computers or other devices, share with their friends and family, and simply daydream with a realistic vision ahead of them.

We recently completed this set of schematic designs for a South Berkeley Bungalow Kitchen, Powder-Room Conversion into a Master Bath, and laundry area. Feel free to take a look at the before and after floor plans, photos and renderings, and then plug into the room with the 360° experience!
