Try for free

Create a kitchen layout that satisfies all your needs and wants using our free HomeByMe design planner. Our easy and intuitive software lets you design a smart, stylish, and ergonomic space all by yourself.

The kitchen is the central hub at home – it’s where family and friendly get-togethers congregate much of the time. Being such a focal and dynamic space means it should look great and be practical to serve multiple purposes. Traditionally, designing the kitchen would require a professional, but today, simple online tech gives everyone – from DIYers to budding designers – the opportunity to customize floor plans without being tech-savvy or specially trained. Our free HomeByMe planner is an intuitive platform that offers many different features that you can use and have fun with to solve all your design needs.

Choose a template to start with or use built-in scales to add walls, doors, and other architectural elements. Change the size and layout by dragging items around, add furniture, flooring, try out different paint colors, and adjust or delete anything on the fly. With our advanced software, you get all the tools you need to construct a kitchen that is beautiful, comfortable, and convenient. Learn how to jump into the design mode and create the ultimate kitchen with these tips on how to draw a layout.

Layout drawing may seem a bit intimidating, but once you get started, you’ll realize how easy and fun it actually is. For this process, it’s beneficial to have measurements and dimensions of your home and planned kitchen. These will let you truly customize your layout and develop a virtual rendering that is accurate, which will make your renovation process run as smoothly as possible. Alternatively, if you don’t have measurements, you can start with room templates. We’ll show you how to access these below. If you want to achieve a certain style such as contemporary or traditional, we’ll show you how to access menus based on specific styles to make it easier for you to customize your space.

How to Draw a House Plan

If you’re planning a major kitchen overhaul or an expansion that might require knocking down a few walls, we highly recommend building out the layout of your home first. This will help to ensure that your kitchen design not only looks great, but makes sense and flows with the rest of your interior. Don’t worry – there are no special skills required for this either. All you need are your measurements or templates to start. Follow these three steps below to draw a house plan:

Create the Outline

Get started on the layout of your house by navigating to the toolbar on the top left corner. Click the very first icon. This is where you can draw in the walls or utilize the room templates. To browse different templates, go to the Room button in the dropdown menu. Then choose the desired shape, room type, and surface measurements to begin mapping out your layout.

Insert Basic Elements

After drawing the layout, you can add other basic elements into the outline like windows, doors and any permanent, structural features by clicking the second icon in your toolbar. Then select Build to explore options to add features for a tailored mock-up of your home.

Make Any Adjustments As You Go

If you want to resize or rearrange anything, just click, drag and move items around to relocate them or to make adjustments as needed. It’s really that simple.

Create Your Ideal Kitchen Drawing Layout

With your home and kitchen templates in place, the next steps are all about getting creative with your kitchen design. Using the HomeByMe planner, you have many possibilities available at your fingertips. But keep in mind that the furnishings you select will impact the entire look and function of your kitchen and home. Luckily, you can try as many items as you wish in your online planner until you land on your dream concept.

Get started on your kitchen drawing layout by heading to the second icon in your toolbar and select Furnish. This is where you’ll find all sorts of features to develop your design.

Under the Kitchen menu, you can build out your kitchen cabinets manually, piece-by-piece, or choose pre-built sets. From stoves to dishwashers to refrigerators and even coffee makers – insert the specific items you need under the Appliance menu. You can also select different tables, chairs, bar stools and more under the Furniture tab. There’s so much you can choose from, it’s just a matter of finding what looks best to you.

Use the View Mode on the bottom center of your planner when you want to see how your new design appears in 2D or 3D. When you want to take a virtual tour, click on the two footprints to navigate directly inside and explore your new kitchen.

Use Filters Based on Your Style

Are you interested in a mid-century style kitchen? Or maybe you prefer more of a retro vibe? You can make your design process faster and easier using the filter options. Once you click Furnish or Decorate, you’ll find the filters located on the left-hand side to tailor your options as needed. Use these often to get inspiration for your kitchen layout.

You don’t need to be tech-savvy or even artistic to create your ultimate dream kitchen. In a matter of minutes, you can draw a layout, add furnishings, decorate, and bring it all to life in 3D format with our simple, online HomeByMe planner. Our innovative solution eliminates the burden of complex floor plans by simplifying the process and combining all of the necessary tools at your disposal. Start planning your dream kitchen today!

How to draw a kitchen project online

The constructor was created specifically for those who want to plan their kitchen in detail, even before going to a furniture showroom.

Go to "Kitchen Builder"

In our article, we will tell you about the design stages in the designer. The interface is quite simple, anyone can figure it out and create a kitchen project on their computer without leaving home.

For the correct operation of the program, it is better to use the browser Google Chrome , Firefox, or Opera on a laptop or PC (not mobile devices).

In this video, we have demonstrated the entire design process. Duration 5 minutes.

Staged project creation

In the constructor in December 2018, the autosave function appeared (every minute). Those. even if you exit and re-enter the page, the program will prompt you to load an autosaved copy of the project. But just in case, I recommend periodically saving the project file to your computer: in the top menu. Save after all significant changes in the project so as not to accidentally lose them. nine0003

1. Room parameters

1. Room dimensions. Select the default dimensions, press Delete and write the actual dimensions in centimeters (wall 1, wall 2, height).

2. Doors, Windows - when clicked, options for windows, doors and ventilation shafts / columns / beams will appear. Select the desired element and, holding down the left mouse button, drag it to the desired part of the room. When you click on an element, and then on the ruler icon, a menu will pop up on the right, where you can specify your width, height, and depth. You can delete an unnecessary module by pressing the Delete button on the keyboard, or by the trash can icon when an element is selected. nine0003

3. Walls and Floors. Here you can choose suitable materials and colors. Click on the color you like and the floor/wall will automatically change color.

2. Kitchen settings

Here you can change the default set parameters: worktop thickness 40 mm, plinth height 120 mm, backsplash height 560 mm.

3. Modules: cabinets and appliances

1. Click Modules and the menu will open.

2. Lower - we form the lower tier of the kitchen. Drag the desired cabinet by holding down the left button of the computer mouse. Dimensions are set by default, but you can change them for yourself (click on Module and Ruler). There are many cabinets, and to view everything, scroll with the mouse. nine0003

To install a sink or hob, select a cabinet with a width of 60 cm (600 mm) or more, in the menu that appears, click on the Appliances icon and select what needs to be built in.

In the Module menu, you can specify the parameters of the facade: solid, framed, showcase (with glass), material and color*.

*It is better to specify these parameters in general for the entire headset, in the Materials section (more about it below).

3. Upper, Pencil cases - all by analogy with the Lower cabinets. Drag to the right place and specify the dimensions. To make a cabinet or other module turn to another wall - just move it close, it will turn itself. When moving the upper cabinets, you will notice the height line of the backsplash, and the cabinet will "stick" to it, for ease of placement. The default is 560 mm, but you can change it in the Kitchen Options section. nine0003

All cabinets are divided according to height. The largest selection with a standard height of 720 mm.

4. Appliances - a standard refrigerator in two colors, an extractor hood (modern and classic), a gas stove and a washing machine. The dimensions of any type of equipment can be changed in the same way as a cabinet (the Ruler icon). Thus, knowing the dimensions of the model, you will see how it will "become" in the headset.

Let me remind you that the built-in oven, hob and sink are indicated in the parameters of the lower cabinets. nine0003

5, 6. Shelves and Bar counters.

Similarly, you can specify any size.

4. Materials: facades, countertop, backsplash

1, 2. The most pleasant moment is the choice of material and color of the facades. Here you can and should play around a little longer and choose the right color and texture.

By default, the upper and lower cabinets are set to the same material and color. But you can click on the button "Separate fronts (or colors)" and specify separately for the lower cabinets. nine0003

MDF, Plastic, Particleboard, Solid wood - four collapsed submenus. Click, the submenu will expand and select the one you need.

The colors are the same.

3. The default case is white, but you can install any.

4, 5. Tabletop, plinth - click and choose a color.

6. Apron - by default, the checkbox "Without an apron" is checked. Remove it if you want to try on a wall panel.

For example, I chose Skinali.

5, 6. Fittings and Lighting

Choice of handles, hinges, availability of closers.

Turn off/on the light to view the illuminated kitchen.

7. Kitchens (project catalog)

A very useful tool where you can select a finished project and continue drawing your kitchen based on it.

Here we collect the best projects of different sizes, layouts and styles.

Save/Load Project

To save your kitchen and continue designing later, click Save Project - Floppy Down Arrow on the top menu. A file with a project with a name of this type "project_20.6.2018_12_37.dbs" will be saved to your computer. The file will be saved to the download folder specified in your browser settings. You can send this file by mail, or download it to a USB flash drive to open it on another computer. nine0003
