My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

The design team at Flat Pack Kitchen Design was fantastic. They listened to my ideas and provided valuable input to create a layout that maximized both space and functionality. They even followed up after the installation to ensure that everything was to my satisfaction.

My condo in a high-rise building was in need of complete updating. I no longer live in the area so had to entrust the project to a designer who could work well with my contractor. Melinda was recommended by another owner in the building and she did a beautiful job of helping me select new everything from cabinets, to fixtures to paint. She was very thorough in her communication with me, the contractor, and the building management. My condo looks great!

Working with Melinda has been such a wonderful experience. She is thorough in her work and has passion for all elements of her design. Seeing our vision brought to life in a recent model unit was impressive and exciting for all of us as a team. Her willingness to work with clients to meet their need and exceed their expectations is exceptional. I will continue to recommend her for future projects and referrals!

We utilized Flat Pack Kitchen Design this year to assist us with remodeling our kitchen with Ikea cabinets. We worked with Melinda, who was a delight to work with and she provided us with lots of design and planning details we would have never come up with on our own to make a spectacular kitchen both in design and functionality. Her suggestions for hardware, countertops, sink, faucet and decorative brackets added to a very custom look. We would happily recommend Flat Pack Kitchen Design to anyone in Chicagoland.

Melinda is a wonderful, easy going and hard working person. We met Melinda while working on a new construction multi unit development in Chicago at 2341 W Adams. Every year we work on few hundred + units in the Chicago area and this time we were very happy make cabinets that were out of the box. Melinda selected very unique and trendy finishes for each unit. New development turned out great and units were sold within few months. Currently we are working with Melinda on few custom projects. Melinda is very easy to work with, respond quickly to emails and phone calls always finds flexible time to meet with here in the office or on the job site. I strongly recommend Melinda, she is a great designer and real estate agent that knows the market and always help her clients to make the right decisions.

I worked with Flat Pack Kitchen Design on my new IKEA kitchen. Melinda was professional and patient. My kitchen is beautiful and functional because of the careful attention Melinda brought to the design and the choice of materials. I highly recommend them.

Melinda at Flat Pack was great to work with. She listened carefully to our ideas and very quickly created an elegant design. I asked for some revisions and she quickly delivered those as well. She was highly responsive online or by phone. Pricing was extremely reasonable. But ultimately what matters most is that when the design was actually built out in our kitchen, it worked and looks awesome.

Melinda was extremely helpful and available to assist with our renovation design. The project was complex and ultimately not yet completed, but this was despite her best efforts. Throughout, she remained very helpful and professional. I recommend her highly.

We hired Melinda to design a kitchen for a house we recently purchased and the results were phenomenal! We were incredibly intimidated about designing with Ikea but she handled everything-measuring, design, a redesign, and some cost cutting. We are thrilled with our new kitchen and could not recommend her enough.
