08: What goes into a new kitchen and how much is it going to cost? With Jess O’Shea

Loved my chat with the incredible Jess O’Shea on cabinetry design. This is a must-listen episode for anyone contemplating a kitchen or wet area renovation. We talk about what goes into a kitchen design, including:


  • the specialist skills an interior designer brings to the design process
  • how much kitchens really cost (it’s never what your friends tell you!) 
  • the pros, cons and cost implications of key materials such as marble vs engineered stone, and different cabinetry finishes
  • how many trades are involved in a kitchen reno
  • why we're obsessed with our cabinet-makers
  • how a designer can help you decide where to splurge and where to save in your kitchen design 


I especially loved Jess’ golden rule of kitchen design - which has nothing to do with the ‘kitchen triangle’ we were taught at design school!
