Modular kitchen kerala: how to design a modular kitchen on budget in kerala?

 

A modular kitchen is a style of kitchen with cabinetry that is premade. These parts are then fitted together to make the cabinets. These cabinet modules can be made of various materials and can store a wide variety of items making this completely efficient. A modular kitchen has several elements to it like floor cabinets that hold the surface, wall cabinets that are used for overhead storing, shutters for the cabinets, a countertop that comes in materials such as laminate, wood, vinyl, granite, marble, etc., hardware which includes knobs and hinges among other things, kitchen appliances like a stovetop, oven, chimney, microwave oven, dishwasher and sink.

Designing and installing all these elements on a budget is not an easy task. However, this can be changed by VC Interiors’ smart planning and designing. For our modular kitchen on a budget-friendly package, we use cheap materials that are easily available and are good alternatives to materials that are usually used and costly. That does not mean that we compromise on quality or utility. Our budget modular kitchens are aesthetically pleasing, fully functional and high in quality.

In order to enjoy the experience of your modular kitchen without having to worry about the designing of your kitchen, you need an expert like VC Interiors to guide you. Every client has a certain set of requirements from their cooking space which is unique. You will need a custom-made kitchen to meet your usage requirements and budget. VC Interiors knows these needs can provide the best solutions to meet them which are also tailor-made for you. We, therefore, have certain tips that we use to make affordable modular kitchens.

The layout is one factor that dictates the way a modular kitchen will be installed. The kitchen can be L-shaped or U-shaped or it can be a corridor kitchen. You also have to factor in your needs. Whether you need extra counter space, the size of your fridge, how you want to store your cutlery and other china etc. are important deciding factors. After assessing these needs, you can choose a module based on its utility and your needs.

Kitchen cabinets make up most of the kitchen budget. We look for cabinet materials that are pocket-friendly but also high quality to ensure durability. Another option is wood veneers. They are basically thin sheets of wood on a surface like MDF or plywood. They will look great in an all-wood kitchen and provide protection against moisture while being cheap.  You can also go for steel or aluminium which offers more durability and is easier to clean.

Color combinations are a great option to make your modular kitchen look great on a budget. A unique color combination or a solid color will be good. You can go for a two-toned kitchen or a plain black or all-white kitchen. There are many affordable options when it comes to countertops. Granite or marble can be used for cost-effectiveness. However, there is a downside to using marble. It stains easily.

A backsplash is another trendy way in which you can bring a pop of color, texture or pattern into your kitchen on a budget. You can use patterned ceramic or porcelain tiles instead of plain ones. Even in patterns, there are several options such as checkered, Turkish tile pattern, terracotta tiles, metallic finishes with copper, brass, steel, aluminium or glass tiles.

Paint is another way in which we transform kitchens on a budget. Instead of whitewashing the whole kitchen like how everybody does, you can go for a color that compliments your cabinetry. You can even install wallpaper on the side of the kitchen that does not face much heat. You can also use heat and grease resistant wallpaper. Paint will also be a good option when you are on a tight budget.

Flooring is also an important aspect that can transform your kitchen for less. You can use vinyl which comes in sheets, tiles and planks. It is a cheap option. You can also go for laminates, ceramics linoleum, etc. If you want an industrial look, stained concrete is the way to go which is low maintenance and cheap.

When you are planning storage, you have to take into consideration all the utensils and appliances that you already own. You should also take into account the space for new appliances in future. For additional storage, you can add floating shelves. These shelves can also be used to display your crockery.

These are some of the ways in which you can design a modular kitchen on a budget in Kerala. For more information and support, contact VC Interiors.
