Welcome to Phase 2 of Your Swede Experience: Design Refinement & Cabinetry Layout Drawings Building on the vision established in Phase 1, Phase 2 is where your design becomes a technical reality. While Phase 1 captures the look and feel, Phase 2 delivers the finalized cabinetry layout drawings required for accurate pricing, seamless coordination, and flawless manufacturing. The Investment This deposit is a retainer that secures your project with our technical and design team. It covers dedicated professional services, including comprehensive technical analysis, detailed verification of appliance specifications to ensure proper integration with your custom cabinetry, and the engineering of your cabinet layout drawings. The full deposit amount is applied as a credit toward your final cabinetry contract. What You'll Receive At the conclusion of Phase 2, you will receive a comprehensive Cabinetry Layout Drawing Set. This technical package serves as the definitive roadmap for fabrication and installation: Finalized Design — Your design is roughly 90% complete at the start of Phase 2; in this phase, we refine the remaining 10% to ensure accuracy and functionality. Technical Verification — Includes comprehensive analysis and detailed verification of your chosen appliances to ensure proper integration with your custom cabinetry. Engineering-Grade Layout Drawings — A complete set of high-detail elevations and plan views for all custom cabinetry. These drawings include precision measurements and integrated appliance specifications, ensuring all selected appliances fit seamlessly within your custom millwork. Final Contract — Once your drawings are finalized, we will issue your cabinetry contract. Upon contract approval and settlement of the remaining cabinetry balance, your project is submitted to our millwork shop for custom fabrication and you gain access to Swede's exclusive trade pricing for finishes and fixtures. Important Project Parameters To ensure a smooth and successful Phase 2, please note the following: Collaborative Design Process — We encourage active collaboration during this phase. Timely design feedback and finalized appliance specifications are critical to ensuring technical accuracy. Phase 2 includes up to two revisions to your cabinetry layout drawings (for a total of three drawing iterations). A revision is defined as a request to modify drawings after they have been delivered for your review; minor clarifications or corrections to errors on our part are not counted. Additional revisions can be accommodated at a rate of $120/hour with your prior approval. Pricing Adjustments — Swede reserves the right to adjust final cabinetry pricing if onsite conditions differ from initial assumptions, if additional materials are required, or if project scope expands during the drawing phase. Any adjustment exceeding 10% of your original estimate will require your written approval before we proceed. Lighting & Electrical — While Swede specifies lighting products from our library, final placement and installation, including under-cabinet lighting, are the responsibility of your onsite electrician. Tile & Flooring — Final tile quantities are best determined by your tile installer; therefore, Swede does not specify tile counts. Cancellation & Refund PolicyWe understand plans can change.
