How do I get started with the IKEA Kitchen planner?
In the IKEA kitchen planning tool, you can begin by creating your layout from scratch or follow our step‑by‑step kitchen guide to build your kitchen with confidence.
Before you begin designing your kitchen, we recommend logging into your IKEA Family profile. This allows you to save your design and return to it later whenever you need a break. You can also follow along with our step‑by‑step kitchen guide, which is there to help you throughout the entire planning process.
Once you're in the IKEA Kitchen planner, start by selecting the room shape that best matches your space. Then, enter the dimensions for each wall, including windows, doors, and any obstacles such as pillars, heaters, etc...
Next, place the key fixed elements first—such as the sink, stove, and any built‑in appliances that cannot be moved. After positioning these essentials, you can work on the corner solutions and then add the remaining cabinets to fill out the rest of the layout.
When your layout is complete, you can choose your preferred style options, including fronts, handles, lighting, and more.
If you need help at any point while using the planner, you can book a free consultation or kitchen planning appointment based on your needs.
