The kitchen is the beating heart of the home, a communal space where the family meets with homemade delights while enjoying conversations. At Interior Company, we provide a one-stop solution to modular kitchen designs with flexibility, functionality and aesthetics. Our design team works with your vision in crafting an integrated and innovative kitchen design that enhances practicality and augments storage solutions seamlessly.

What is a Modular Kitchen and what does it include?

Modular kitchens are more than just cooking spaces; they are marvels of efficiency and style. With an ergonomic design, unified storage solutions, and cleverly designed cabinets, everything is within your reach here. Say goodbye to a cramped space and hello to a spacious, organised cooking station. Our interior modular kitchens are tailored to your taste- from a string of cabinet styles to dazzling countertops and streamlined appliances to statement lighting, merging together in perfect harmony.

Key Elements of a Modular Kitchen Design

Any modular kitchen design comprises the following elements, which can directly impact the lives of homeowners, providing them with comfort and convenience to prepare any meal instantly:

  • Customised Designs: Every Indian kitchen design should be tailored specifically to the needs and conveniences of the homeowner. This involves checking the total available space, different layout options, countertop styles and even sink designs that help customers use the space in the most efficient way possible.
  • Ample Storage: Modular kitchen designs should help you keep your kitchen clutter-free and neat, with plenty of storage units divided neatly. These units should be easy to pull-out, so that you can access anything instantly. Their size should also vary according to the items to be stored in them and the number of times they are used daily.
  • Modern Appliances: Modern appliances are essential in every modular kitchen design, as they enhance the space's overall functionality and aesthetics. These include built-in ovens, microwaves, dishwashers, and induction cooktops, which have an extremely streamlined appearance and can be used with precision.  Moreover, built-in appliances help maintain a clean and uncluttered countertop, contributing to any kitchen's sleek, contemporary look.
  • Easy Maintenance: Any modular kitchen design should be easy to clean and maintain with minimal effort. Modular kitchens are designed with materials and finishes that are resistant to stains, moisture, and scratches, making them easy to wipe down and keep spotless. This feature helps a lot in any Indian kitchen, where a lot of spices are used that might lead to grease buildup.

Different Types of Modular Kitchen Designs Based on Layout

Modular kitchens facilitate an extensive range of layouts and styles that can be customised according to the user’s preferences.

There are six types of basic layouts suited to distinct spaces and tastes.

  • Utaliarian L-shaped Kitchen Interior Design: The L-shaped modular kitchen design is known for its work triangle between the stove, sink, and refrigerator, effectively using the corner spaces. This helps people make their kitchen look more sleek and is ideal for any small to medium-sized kitchen.
  • Sophisticated Island Modular Kitchen: An island kitchen design offers a freestanding counter in the centre, providing additional workspace and storage. It is perfect for open-plan layouts, offering a stylish focal point and space for dining or casual gatherings.
  • Efficient Parallel Modular Kitchen Design: The parallel kitchen design features two parallel countertops, offering ample storage and work areas. It is suitable for compact spaces, allowing easy movement between the two sides making cooking more efficient.
  • Straight Simple Kitchen Design: A straight kitchen design is characterised by all kitchen components aligned along a single wall, making it ideal for smaller homes or apartments. It provides extra space for private customisations and provides a clutter-free look with a streamlined layout.
  • Expansive U-shaped Kitchen Design: The U-shaped kitchen design offers three sides of counter space, creating a spacious and efficient work area. It provides ample storage and room for multiple users, making it ideal for larger kitchens focusing on functionality.
  • Stunning Open Modular Kitchen: Creating a sense of space and connectivity, open modular kitchens integrate seamlessly with living or dining spaces. This design is perfect for modern homes that prioritise social interaction and a more inclusive cooking experience.

Whether you lean towards a minimalist, Scandinavian-inspired look, or a rustic, industrial vibe, our expert designers are adept at crafting spaces that radiate your individual style.

Materials and Finishes Used in Modular Kitchens

A modular kitchen is a tailored cooking haven with prefabricated modules that are designed for optimal space utilisation and aesthetic appeal. Our experts at Interior Company create well-furnished modular kitchen models with impeccable planning and style. From high-quality materials to graceful finishes and vibrant kitchen colours and themes, there are endless possibilities to fashion an enduring look.

Popular Materials and Finishes for Modular Kitchen Design

  • Plywood: Plywood is an extremely strong and durable material made from wood veneers. It is also moisture-resistant, making it ideal for kitchen cabinets and countertops in humid environments.
  • MDF: Made of wood fibres and resins, MDF, or Medium-Density Fiberboard, helps provide a smooth and uniform finish throughout the kitchen surface. Though less moisture-resistant than plywood, it is perfect for intricate designs and painted surfaces.
  • Particle Board: Particle board is an economical option for kitchen cabinets as it is made out of wood chips and resin. It’s lightweight but less durable, best suited for areas with minimal exposure to moisture.
  • Wood: Wood is an excellent choice of material for modular kitchens with easy-to-polish features. However, they might require regular maintenance to prevent warping and moisture damage.
  • BWP: BWP or the Boiling Water Proof is a special plywood that is ideal for use in kitchens with lots of water usage. It is specially designed to resist any type of water damage, ensuring the longevity and durability of the kitchen structure.
  • HDHMR: HDHMR boards, also known as High-Density High Moisture Resistant sheets, are excellent for absorbing any kind of moisture and are much more robust than any MDF or particle board. They are perfect for use in areas with high humidity, like Mumbai.
  • Membrane: Membrane finishes involve applying PVC foil over MDF boards, which helps create a seamless and durable surface. Since it is extremely easy to clean, you won't have to worry about hefty maintenance charges and the cost of replacement every couple of years.
  • Laminate: Laminates are thin sheets applied over substrates like plywood or MDF, offering a variety of colours and finishes. They are scratch-resistant and easy to maintain, making them a practical choice for modular kitchens.
  • PVC: PVC, or Polyvinyl Chloride, is a lightweight and moisture-resistant sheet used on kitchen cabinets in damp spaces. It is easy to clean and maintain, but it may be less sturdy than other materials like plywood.
  • Acrylic: Acrylic sheets give the kitchen cabinets a high-gloss finish, which makes them extremely sleek and modern. They are a bit more costly than other materials.
  • Lacquer: Lacquer finishes involve applying a smooth, glossy coat over wood or MDF surfaces. It gives a premium and elegant appearance, providing both aesthetic appeal and a durable, moisture-resistant surface.

Explore Kitchen Designs Based on Theme

Every family designs its kitchen in its own way. Some want their kitchen to be simple and functional, while others prefer adding colour and detail. Over time, a few styles have become common in Indian homes, each with its unique character.

  • Modern Kitchen Design Theme: A modern kitchen design is designed to reduce clutter. Flat cabinets, smooth counters, and a clear floor are the key elements of this kitchen style. It uses light colours and hidden handles, so that work moves quickly. Many homes in tier-one cities generally prefer this style because it suits smaller spaces well.
  • Contemporary Kitchen Design Theme: Contemporary kitchen designs reflect the spirit of the moment. One year it may be sleek steel finishes, the next it could be bold colours. Glass shutters, open shelves, or striking lights can all be part of the mix. This style of kitchen interior design continues to evolve in line with the prevailing trends of the time.
  • Open Plan Dining Kitchen Design Theme: In this kitchen room design the cooking space and dining area are combined. It works best in compact homes, where rooms must serve multiple purposes.
  • Traditional Kitchen Design Theme: A traditional kitchen design often keeps details that feel familiar to older generations. It does not hide utensils behind closed shutters, but they are out there within reach. Many Indian families still prefer this style because it feels more familiar.
  • Transitional Kitchen Design Theme: Some homes balance both modern and traditional styles. They may have sleek counters with moulded shutters and neutral shades paired with warmer tones. This creates a transitional look, allowing the kitchen to feel current while still retaining its classic features.
  • Colonial Kitchen Design Theme: A colonial kitchen borrows its look from older European houses. It needs space to breathe, which is why it is less seen in small flats. Generally, the cupboards are painted white, and patterned floors complement the polished wood.
  • Rustic Kitchen Design Theme: A rustic kitchen setup for the home looks closer to countryside living. Stone counters, wooden racks, and earthen tones are its true elements. Utensils may be stored on open shelves, and the flooring may remain plain.
  • Scandinavian Kitchen Design Theme: A Scandinavian kitchen avoids heavy decoration. It depends on light, both natural and artificial, to make a room look open. The Scandinavian kitchen style has become popular in Indian cities because it makes even a small space look larger.

Popular Modular Kitchen Colour Combination You Must Explore in 2025

Colour changes how a kitchen feels. Bright shades make it lively, muted tones keep it subtle. Indian families often pick colours not just for style but also for maintenance. Some shades hide stains, while others show every splash of oil.

  1. White and Grey Kitchen Colour Combination: White with grey colour combination looks clean and simple. It suits modern kitchen design, where families want a relaxed and soothing mood. However, white stains quickly, but grey balances it by hiding marks.
  2. Red and White Kitchen Colour Combination: Red adds energy, and when paired with white, the kitchen looks bold. The shade of red matters. Dark red hides stains, whereas glossy bright red shows fingerprints. Many home interior design projects use this to make the kitchen a central spot of the house.
  3. Wood and Cream Kitchen Colour Combination: Wooden tones paired with cream shades bring warmth to the kitchen. The look matches both traditional and modern layouts. It is also easy to maintain, as this palette hides marks better than plain white.
  4. Blue and White Kitchen Colour Combination: Blue with white feels airy. Light blue shades are calm, while darker blues give contrast. In hot cities, this palette keeps the space feeling cooler. Families sometimes pair it with a white kitchen false ceiling to brighten the room.
  5. Green and Beige Kitchen Colour Combination: When green is paired with beige, it makes the kitchen look natural. This works in homes where potted plants are also part of the design. Lighter shades of greens keep the look soft, whereas the darker ones make it bold.
  6. Black and White Kitchen Colour Combination: Black and white is a striking colour combination. Glossy black cabinets reflect light, while matte black looks muted. This mix is suitable for large kitchens with sufficient lighting. In trending kitchen projects, black and white are often chosen for their bold contrast.
  7. Yellow and Grey Kitchen Colour Combination: Yellow adds brightness, grey tones it down. This palette is not too loud. It suits compact kitchens where natural light is limited.
  8. All-White Kitchen Design: An all-white look is timeless. It feels clean, but requires strict care, as stains appear instantly. Many latest modular kitchen design ideas still use all-white for its open look, though families with heavy cooking sometimes avoid it.

Steps to Design Your Small Modular Kitchen in Style

Small kitchen designs are found in most city apartments. They can feel cramped, but with the right choices, they work well for daily cooking.

  1. Measure the Space: Start with the exact size. Even a few inches decide if a tall fridge or oven will fit. Families who skip this often end up shifting appliances to the hallway.
  2. Pick the Right Layout: Straight or parallel layouts usually work best. An L-shape fits if one wall is long enough, but not always. The wrong choice leaves corners wasted.
  3. Go for Lighter Colours: White, cream, or soft grey keep the kitchen open. Dark tones make it smaller. A kitchen room design with lighter walls and cabinets feels easier to move around in.
  4. Plan Storage Early: Pull-outs and corner racks use every inch. Daily-use jars are kept near the stove, while big bags of rice or flour are stored higher up. Without this order, the counter fills up fast.
  5. Think Multi-Use: A foldable counter or kitchenette can be used for chopping in the morning and eating at night. Families in compact flats often rely on this.
  6. Fix the Lighting: One ceiling tube throws shadows. Strips under cabinets or small LED spots make cooking easier. Without them, even a clean kitchen feels dark.

7 Clever Storage Ideas That Maximize Your Kitchen Space

Storage is always the first complaint in an Indian kitchen. There are too many jars, too many boxes, but not too many places to keep them. Good planning makes the space easier to use, not bigger.

  1. Pull-Out Drawers: Drawers that slide out fully make every inch count. You don’t have to bend and dig into dark corners. In many small kitchen design projects, these drawers replace lower cabinets completely.
  2. Tall Units: A tall kitchen unit works like a cupboard for groceries. Families store rice, oil tins, and packets all in one place. It feels like a mini storeroom inside the kitchen.
  3. Corner Solutions: Corners are usually wasted. Lazy Susans or L-shaped trays turn that space into storage. Families who cook often keep spices or utensils there, since the trays spin out easily.
  4. Overhead Cabinets: Overhead cabinets store things not used daily. Extra plates, festival vessels, or bulk groceries sit here. In home interior design projects, glass shutters are sometimes added to keep the space lighter.
  5. Under-Sink Storage: The area below the sink often stays empty. With racks or bins, it can hold cleaning supplies, soap, and waste bins. Many homes have pull-out bins here to make segregation easier.
  6. Appliance Garage: Some kitchens include a small, shuttered spot for mixers, toasters, or kettles. It hides the clutter but keeps appliances ready to use. Works best in modern kitchen design where families prefer clean counters.
  7. Modular Inserts: Inserts divide drawers into neat sections. Plates, spoons, or knives all stay in place instead of shifting around. These inserts may look small, but they bring order to daily cooking.

What is a sustainable kitchen design?

A sustainable design cuts waste, saves power, and uses what lasts longer. It isn’t about making the space look green; it is about making it work without draining money and effort every year.

  • Eco-Friendly Materials: Granite and stone are still popular because they can last for decades without change. However, people are increasingly requesting bamboo panels or low-emission plywood, which doesn’t emit fumes indoors. These options cost more, but they mean fewer repairs later.
  • Energy-Saving Appliances: The simplest way to save energy is through fittings. LED strips under cabinets, induction cooktops, and inverter refrigerators reduce power consumption, while timers can automatically switch off lights. In home interior design projects, these choices often come before colour or finishes.
  • Water Management: Taps with aerators are cheap but save litres every single day. Some apartments even fix small pipelines to carry sink water into gardens.
  • Waste Reduction: Pull-out bins inside a kitchen unit are now standard. One for wet waste, another for dry. In some flats, a compost pot sits right under the sink. Families drop peels and leftovers in, and they decompose into soil over time. In small kitchen design layouts, even this small change makes waste disposal easier.
  • Durability Over Trends: Trendy surfaces look good for a year, sometimes two. Then they chip or fade. Families who choose solid stone or rigid laminates avoid that cycle. A strong kitchen interior design is one that remains effective ten years later, even if the colour isn’t the latest trend.

Top 10 Kitchen Countertops Materials You Can From

The countertop is where everything is kept. The groceries, hot pans, chopping boards, and even lunch boxes. It takes the most use and abuse in a kitchen design, so the material has to match the family’s routine, not just the look.

  1. Marble Kitchen Countertops: Marble is still widely used in Indian households, with most of it sourced from Rajasthan. It looks bright and fresh when new, but turmeric and oil can stain it quickly if not cleaned right away. Knives can also leave scratches on the surface. Even so, many families continue to choose it because it is affordable and easily available.
  2. Quartz Countertops for Kitchen: Quartz is man-made material, mixed with resin. Unlike marble, it doesn’t stain with oil or masala. Easy to clean, smooth to touch. Several colours are available, so matching it with different colour combinations is simple. It costs more, and hot pans can leave marks if placed directl on the surfacey.
  3. Granite Countertops for Kitchen: Granite is a hard, heavy stone from Karnataka or Tamil Nadu. It resists heat and scratches, lasts for decades, and when sealed, keeps oil from seeping in. Black granite is popular as it hides dirt and feels strong.
  4. Kitchen Concrete Countertops: Concrete appears raw and unfinished, but that’s the point. Builders cast it in place, polish it, then seal it. It suits home interior design projects that have an industrial mood, rather than a polished one.
  5. Kitchen Butcher Block Countertops: Butcher block countertops are strips of wood joined together. It feels warm, softer under knives. But they are not water-resistant. It is rarely used in Indian kitchens, mainly used for an island or a breakfast slab.
  6. Kitchen Stainless Steel Countertops: Stainless steel is shiny, cold, tough. Restaurants use it because it can take heat, water, and scrubbing. A kitchen unit with steel tops wipes clean in seconds. At home, it shows scratches and fingerprints.
  7. Laminate for Kitchen Countertops: Laminate countertops have a plywood base with a printed sheet on top. It is also cheap and colourful and can easily be replaced. Primarily seen in rentals or spaces with a small kitchen design, where the budget is a priority.
  8. Tile Countertops for Kitchen: Tile countertops are now rare. Square tiles are easy to repair, but hard to clean between the lines. It still works in kitchen tile design where families want patterns to match the wall.
  9. Solid Surface Kitchen Countertops: Solid surface countertops are made from a mixture of acrylic and other materials. It can hide joints, even curve into a sink. It is trending as the latest modular kitchen design as it is soft and easy to scratch.
  10. Soapstone Kitchen Countertops: These countertops are crafted from grey stone with a smooth, soft feel. They resist heat and stains but can scratch easily due to their sharp edges. Regular oiling helps deepen the colour. Imported soapstone is expensive. It is chosen for modern homes that prefer looks.

Different Types of Kitchen Sink Design

Every kitchen needs a sink, but not all serve the same purpose. Some are wide and open, others are split or hidden away. The choice depends on cooking style, slab space, and how often heavy vessels are handled.

  1. Single-Bowl Kitchen Sink Design: In many Indian homes, the single bowl is still the most common. It is wide and open, big enough for a cooker or large pots. Cleaning is simple, but there is no division. Washing and rinsing happen in the same water. Families with compact counters keep it because it saves space.
  2. Double-Bowl Kitchen Sink Design: A double bowl divides work. One side can hold soapy water, while the other stays free for rinsing. The bowls are smaller though, and a large kadhai or thaali doesn’t fit well.
  3. Kitchen Sink Design with Drainboard: This type is seen in many homes. After washing, plates are left on the drainboard to drip-dry. It keeps water from spreading on the slab
  4. Top-Mount Kitchen Sink Design: Also called drop-in, this sink is fitted from above. The rim rests on the counter and is visible. It is easy to install and suits most modular kitchen models. Water sometimes collects around the edges, which needs extra wiping.
  5. Undermount Kitchen Sink Design: Here the sink is fixed from below the slab. No rim shows, and the counter looks flat. Crumbs and water can be wiped directly inside. It needs strong stone counters like granite or quartz to hold well.
  6. Integrated Kitchen Sink Design Ideas: Some solid surfaces are moulded with the sink built in. No gaps, no joins. The counter and sink flow as one piece. It looks neat but costs more. If cracks come later, repairs are not simple.
  7. Modern Kitchen Sink Design: Deeper bowls, sound pads, steel racks, new sinks come with these add-ons. Some even have chopping boards that slide across. They suit latest modular kitchen design ideas where space is used smartly.
  8. Farmhouse Sink Design for Kitchen: Also called apron-front, this sink sticks out a little from the counter. The bowl is deep, good for washing heavy pots. The style comes from rural kitchens, but it is part of trending designs in city homes now.
  9. Disappearing Kitchen Sink Design: These sinks are covered with sliding boards when not in use. The counter looks plain, with no basin in sight. Useful in open kitchens where the sink is visible from the dining room.
  10. Bar Sink for Kitchen Design: Smaller in size, bar sinks are used at prep counters. They help when two people cook together. Not for heavy cleaning, but handy for rinsing vegetables or glasses.
  11. Rotating Kitchen Sink Design: Some sinks now rotate, with trays and racks fixed inside. Vegetables, plates, and cutlery can be shifted around without moving to another spot. They save counter space, though they are still rare in India.
  12. Corner Kitchen Sink Design: The corners of a kitchen are often wasted, and a sink there makes use of the space. It frees the main counter for cooking. But if two people need it at once, it feels cramped. Families in small houses use it because every bit of the slab matters.

Flooring Options You Can Choose for Your Modular Kitchen

The kitchen floor is the surface that suffers most. Heavy pans slip, oil splashes spread, and water drips near the sink. A good choice depends on how much a family cooks, cleans, and spends.

  • Kitchen Ceramic Tiles Flooring: Ceramic tiles are low-cost and widely available. They come in plain colours or bright prints and are easy to clean with a mop. A heavy utensil can chip them, but many still choose ceramic as it fits a tight budget.
  • Natural Stone Flooring for Kitchen: Older Indian homes often have marble or Kota stone floors. Marble shines when polished but stains quickly with turmeric or oil. Kota is darker and more durable, though without the same gloss. Both stay cool in hot weather, so many families still prefer them.
  • Kitchen Porcelain Tiles Flooring: Porcelain looks like ceramic but is denser. It is also durable and water resistant. The cost is higher, but it lasts longer in kitchens where cooking is a constant activity.
  • Hardwood Flooring for Kitchen: Wooden floors are rare in Indian kitchens. They give warmth and a rich look, but water is their weakness. A small leak can make the planks swell. Hardwood needs sealing and constant care, which is why only larger homes with open layouts usually pick it.
  • Kitchen Laminate Wood Flooring: Laminate is made to copy the look of wood. It is printed sheets stuck on board, cheaper and lighter than hardwood. It scratches quickly and does not like water. Sometimes it appears in small kitchen design projects where people want the wooden look without the high cost.
  • Kitchen Vinyl Flooring: Vinyl is soft underfoot and fully waterproof. It eases leg strain during long cooking hours and cleans easily of oil and stains. A sharp knife can cut it, and in many rented flats, it lasts a few years before the edges start to peel.
  • Kitchen Marble Flooring: Marble comes mainly from Rajasthan. It is bright and smooth when polished, but it soaks up liquids easily. A turmeric spill can leave a yellow stain in minutes. Families continue to use marble because it is widely available, despite knowing the high maintenance costs.
  • Kitchen Granite Flooring: Granite from South India is one of the hardest natural stones. It resists heat, scratches and heavy use without chipping. Black and brown granite hides stains well, making it common in city apartments. Although costlier than marble, it is often chosen as a one-time, lasting choice.
  • Concrete Flooring for Kitchen: Concrete was ordinary in rural homes and still appears there. It is plain and strong, but cracks if it is left unsealed. Repairs are easy, which makes it practical. In modern homes, it is now used again in home interior design projects that want an unfinished, industrial style.
  • Kitchen Vitrified Tiles Flooring: Vitrified tiles are made with clay, quartz, and silica. They are dense, shiny, and resist stains well. Families like them because they can look like marble or granite but cost less. Easy to mop and long-lasting, they have become a regular choice in modern kitchen design.

The Role of Lighting in Kitchen Interiors

Lighting plays a significant role in kitchen interiors, and it improves safety, enhances storage and elevates your kitchenette aesthetics.

  • Overhead Lighting: Ceiling lights spread light across the entire room. Tube lights and LED panels are standard because they are cheap and easy to fit. They work well for basic kitchen interior designs.
  • Task Lighting: Task lights focus on areas where chopping or cooking happens. Strips fixed under cabinets or small spotlights near the stove make a big difference.
  • Ambient Lighting: Ambient light sets the mood. Warm bulbs make the space cosy, while white bulbs keep it sharp. Many home interior design projects use this balance to ensure the kitchen aligns with the rest of the house.
  • Accent Lighting: Accent lights highlight certain features. A glass cabinet with backlighting, or a shelf with LEDs, adds style. It does not change how the kitchen works, but adds detail to trending layouts.
  • Natural Lighting: Windows and skylights keep the kitchen bright during the daytime. Windows reduce the need for artificial light.

Important Kitchen Appliances for Modular Kitchens

Here are some key kitchen appliances essential for modular kitchen design in India based on their functionality and ease of usage:

  • Chimney:  A chimney or range hood is a must-have for every functional modular Indian kitchen, which produces a lot of fumes every day with regular frying and strong spices. This device is necessary to keep the kitchen free from smoke, steam, and cooking odours. This appliance helps maintain a clean kitchen environment by preventing grease and smoke buildup on cabinets and walls.
  • Built-in microwaves and ovens: Built-in microwaves and ovens are essential for reheating food, grilling items, and baking cakes/ cupcakes. They are integrated within cabinets, saving countertop space. A built-in microwave streamlines these processes while maintaining a neat, modern look in modular kitchens.
  • Cooktop: A gas stove or an electric cooktop is one of the primary appliances for cooking in any Indian kitchen. Essential for daily cooking, a cooktop suits the requirements of Indian meals, which include boiling, frying, and slow cooking. Modular Indian kitchen designs have sleek, built-in gas stoves that are pre-matched with the shade of countertops.
  • Built-in Storage Units: Well-designed storage units, such as pull-out spice racks, keep everything organised and within reach, enhancing the efficiency and functionality of the modular kitchen design. Modern kitchens have special units for these so that people can keep dry spices, pulses, and other daily-use items in separate drawers.
  • Electric Kettle: For Indian households that enjoy chai or herbal teas, an electric kettle saves time and energy. Its compact size fits perfectly into a modular kitchen, making it an extremely efficient addition to your kitchen. This is also well-suited for preparing instant meals and tea/ coffee.

  • Ah, storage! The unsung hero of any kitchen. Introduce intelligent storage solutions that suit your needs.
  • The heart of any kitchen lies in the choice of materials, embodying a striking look and personality.
  • Set the mood with stunning light fixtures or kitchen false ceiling designs to lend a welcoming ambience and add a touch of drama.
  • Finish your modular kitchen look with exquisite details.
