Currently used design tools for kitchen design are often complicated, have poor interfaces and limited capabilities to exchange data between different applications. No integrated kitchen design environment is available although kitchen design requires the expertise of many different specialists and the decisions of various designers strongly affect each other. The complex design, build, maintain and retrofit process has been mapped in order to provide a logical structure and flow for the kitchen design system. The developed prototype kitchen design tool demonstrates the capabilities and requirements of a truely integrated and efficient design process.
