Does anyone know of software where I can build a virtual kitchen ? What I would like would be one kitchen and have them be able to replace countertops and cabinet colors.

Thanks in Advance

I don't know of any free ones, I've used a professional package called Planit when I used to work for a kitchen company. That's about the best you can get, but is also very expensive.

Depends what you want to do, are you a professional kitchen fitter or just someone who wants to plan their own kitchen? If you fall into the latter category it would be easiest to go to a kitchen company, tell them what you want and let them do the plans for you. Smiling

No I am a web designer. I am currently looking for an interactive script for the web where a kitchen is displayed and they can change countertops, with samples I provide and possibly even cabinet color.

Ouch, that's quite a requirement! Although I might be thinking about this the wrong way. It would be fairly easy to take several images of a kitchen, then have a swatch of colours, when you mouse-over the swatches the image changes.

So all you really need is an image swapping script? You should be able to write that yourself, it's very simple. Failing that, have you tried http://www.hotscripts.com there's quite a promising 'switch content script' available. There aren't many promising items on there though, probably because switching images is easy to do. Smiling

i would suggest to start thinking how you can create this sort of thing in flash. It would be cleaner and more interactive and some images can be created or manipulated in there as well.
