What Happens During a Harmony Home Concepts Complimentary In-Home Design Consultation?

by | Oct 13, 2026 | Custom Storage Solutions, Creative Closet Design, Home Organization, Slide Out Shelves

Thinking about improving your home’s storage but not sure where to start?

Maybe you’re tired of digging through kitchen cabinets, your closet never seems to stay organized, or your garage has become the place where everything ends up.

You know something needs to change.

But what exactly do you need?

Pull-out shelves? Custom cabinets? A better closet design? Something else entirely?

And what happens if you actually schedule a consultation?

At Harmony Home Concepts, we believe getting started should be the easy part.

You don’t need to know what storage solution you want. You just need to show us what’s frustrating you.

Here’s what you can expect when you schedule a complimentary in-home design consultation with our Wichita-area team.

1. We Start by Listening

Before we start talking about products, we want to understand what’s not working in your home.

Maybe you’re tired of getting down on your knees to reach the back of a kitchen cabinet.

Maybe your closet has plenty of room, but the space isn’t being used very well.

Or maybe your garage has become so crowded that finding anything is a challenge.

We’ll ask questions about what you’re storing, how you use the space, and what you’d like to make easier.

Because the best storage solution isn’t necessarily the one with the most shelves or drawers.

It’s the one that solves your particular problem.

2. We Look at the Space Together

Next, we’ll take a look at the areas you’d like to improve.

You might have one cabinet that’s been driving you crazy for years.

Or you might have several areas throughout your home that could work better.

We’ll look at your existing space and discuss the possibilities.

For example:

  • Kitchen cabinets: Could custom pull-out shelves make everything easier to reach?
  • Pantries: Would better shelf spacing or pull-out storage help you see what you have?
  • Closets: Could drawers, double hanging areas, or adjustable shelving make better use of the space?
  • Garages: Would custom cabinets, slatwall, or designated storage areas help get things off the floor?
  • Laundry rooms and mudrooms: Could custom storage give everyday items a place of their own?

Sometimes a small change makes a big difference.

Other times, a more complete storage system is the better solution.

We’ll help you explore the options.

3. We Talk About How You Actually Use the Space

Two homeowners can have closets that are exactly the same size but need completely different storage solutions.

One might need more hanging space.

Another might need drawers, shoe storage, and shelving.

The same is true for kitchens, garages, and pantries.

That’s why we don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach.

We’ll talk about what you use most often, what needs to be easily accessible, and what you’d like to keep out of sight.

Your storage should be designed around your belongings and your everyday routines—not the other way around.

4. We Take Measurements and Explore Design Options

Once we understand what you’d like to accomplish, we’ll take the measurements needed to evaluate your space and develop recommendations.

For kitchen pull-out shelves, that means looking at your existing cabinets and determining how custom shelves can fit within them.

For closets, garages, and other storage areas, we’ll consider the available dimensions and how different configurations could work.

We’ll discuss options such as shelving, drawers, cabinets, hanging space, and other features appropriate for your project.

And we’ll help you understand the practical differences between those options.

You don’t have to know all the terminology or arrive with a design already figured out.

That’s why you’re meeting with us.

5. We Help You Find a Solution That Makes Sense for Your Home

Not every storage frustration requires a major project.

Sometimes a few well-placed pull-out shelves can transform how you use your kitchen.

Sometimes a custom closet system can make an existing closet feel much more spacious.

And sometimes garage cabinets and slatwall can completely change how your garage functions.

Our goal is to recommend improvements that address the frustrations you’ve shared.

We’ll discuss your priorities, the options available, and the scope of the project.

If you have several areas you’d like to improve, we can also talk about which ones matter most to you.

You don’t have to tackle every storage problem in your home at once.

The important thing is finding a solution that makes everyday life easier.

6. We Explain the Estimate and Next Steps

Once we’ve discussed the design and scope of your project, we’ll explain the estimating process and what comes next.

Depending on the project, some details may need to be finalized before a complete proposal can be prepared.

We’ll help you understand what’s included in the recommended solution, answer your questions, and explain the next steps if you’d like to move forward.

The consultation itself is complimentary.

And scheduling a consultation doesn’t obligate you to purchase anything.

Our goal is to give you the information you need to make a decision that’s right for your home.

Do I Need to Prepare Anything Before the Consultation?

Not much!

You don’t need to empty every cabinet, completely organize your closet, or clean out the entire garage before we arrive.

In fact, seeing how you’re currently using the space can help us understand what’s frustrating you.

It can be helpful to think about a few things beforehand:

  • Which areas of your home frustrate you most?
  • What items are difficult to store or reach?
  • What would you like to be easier?
  • Are there particular features or ideas you’ve seen that interest you?
  • Do you have a budget or timeframe in mind?

And if you don’t know the answers to all those questions, that’s perfectly fine.

You don’t have to have everything figured out before we get there.

What If I’m Not Ready to Make a Decision?

That’s okay, too.

Custom storage is an investment in your home, and we want you to feel comfortable with your choices.

The purpose of the consultation is to help you understand what’s possible, explore solutions, and get the information you need.

You can ask questions, discuss alternatives, and decide what makes sense for you.

The Best Part? You May Discover Possibilities You Hadn’t Considered

Many homeowners start by thinking about one particular frustration.

Maybe it’s the pots and pans cabinet.

Or a closet that doesn’t have enough shelving.

Or the garage that’s become impossible to organize.

But once we start looking at the space together, other possibilities often come to mind.

A pull-out shelf might make an awkward cabinet easier to use.

A different closet layout might provide more usable storage without making the closet bigger.

Or a custom cabinet system might finally give all those garage supplies a place of their own.

Sometimes all it takes is a fresh set of eyes and a little creative thinking.
