Interior design cost in Aminjikarai
Aminjikarai sits between Anna Nagar and Chetpet, and a lot of the homes changing hands here are resale flats in older blocks, alongside a steady number of newer mid-rise buildings. For many buyers the first interior cost is not new carpentry at all but taking out what the previous owner left behind, so the estimate has two parts: clearing and building.

Planning interiors in Aminjikarai
A central residential pocket between Anna Nagar and Chetpet, with older apartment blocks and newer mid-rise developments.
- Resale flats make up a big share of the market, and dismantling old wardrobes, lofts and kitchen shelving is often part of the scope before any new unit is measured.
- Two-bedroom homes here are typically 850 to 1,100 sq ft, and three-bedrooms about 1,200 to 1,550 sq ft, so storage has to be planned tightly without the extra room of bigger Anna Nagar flats.
- Moisture risk is medium, and older blocks often show damp near bathrooms and kitchen sinks, which is why BWP plywood is recommended for wet-side carcasses.
- Bedrooms in many older buildings have little space between the bed and the wall, so sliding wardrobes are common where hinged doors would not open fully.
- Elixir's Koyambedu studio is only about 10 minutes away, which makes quick site checks and sample visits easy to fit into a weekday.
Estimates cover design, modular carpentry, installation and a 12-year woodwork warranty. Civil, electrical, painting, appliances and countertops are usually quoted separately. See full inclusions & specifications

Plan smarter
Five ways to keep your budget on track
- 01
Price the removal separately
Ask the designer to list dismantling of old cupboards, lofts and platforms as its own line, so you can compare quotes fairly.
- 02
Check what can be salvaged
Some old cupboards have sound carcasses that only need new shutters. A site visit can tell you which ones are worth keeping.
- 03
Treat damp before installing
Look for stains near bathrooms and sinks. Fixing leaks first protects new carcasses from swelling during the monsoon.
- 04
Measure door swing in bedrooms
Note the distance between bed and wardrobe wall. Where it is tight, budget for sliding shutters in that room only.
- 05
Use the studio's closeness
With the studio nearby, plan two short visits: one to shortlist finishes and one to confirm them before production.

FAQ
Common cost questions
Still unsure? Our designers are happy to answer anything on a call.
Why do quotes include dismantling in Aminjikarai?
Many homes here are resale flats with existing wardrobes, lofts and kitchen shelves. Removing them takes labour and disposal, so it is quoted as a separate item before new interiors are installed.
How much does a 3BHK in Aminjikarai cost?
A 3BHK of roughly 1,200 to 1,550 sq ft is approximately ₹3.1L – ₹5.8L in Basic, ₹3.8L – ₹7L in Premium and ₹4.4L – ₹8.2L in Ultra Premium, pre-GST.
Which package do most Aminjikarai owners choose?
Premium is the most common choice here, as it offers better finishes and hardware without the higher cost of Ultra Premium. Rooms can be mixed across packages.
Are these prices final?
No. They are approximate, pre-GST ranges. Layout, carpet area, materials, hardware and site condition all affect the final quote, which a designer confirms after measuring.
How soon can a designer visit?
The studio is about 10 minutes away, so a site visit is usually easy to arrange after you book a free consultation.
