- How much space do you need for an open kitchen and living room?
- From 25 m², you can fit a single-wall kitchen, a small table and a sofa. Around 30 m², as in this plan, the kitchen can become L-shaped with a proper table for four. Above 35 m², an island becomes possible.
- Can I knock down the wall between the kitchen and the living room?
- If it’s a partition, yes, generally without paperwork in a private home. If it’s a load-bearing wall, you need a structural engineer to size the support beam and, in an apartment building, approval from the owners’ association. Either way, have the wall checked before you buy the kitchen.
- How can I test opening up my kitchen before the work starts?
- Draw or copy your plan, delete the partition and rearrange: the 3D view and the tour show the open room. Keep a copy of the current layout in the same project to compare both versions.
- Do I need an account to edit the plan?
- Yes, a free account: the plan is copied into your space, where you can edit it and come back to it. No credit card. Without an account, you can already view it in 2D, in 3D and on the tour on this page.
