Use the following design considerations when coordinating this service with a wider project. Agree which parts apply to your request.
Coordinate the internal floor, skirting and glazing threshold levels.
What the drawing needs to explain
Draw one section through the kitchen, glazing and terrace. Include finished floor levels, the roof edge and shading position; separate supplier sketches do not fully show these relationships.
How to review the result
At completion, walk from the cooking area to the terrace. Check the opening with the intended furniture in place and review the light with any shading closed.
Cost factors for this service

Bring this to the discussion
Substrate photographs, colour preferences and a list of elements.
