Planning interiors in KK Nagar
A residential neighbourhood with a mix of government-era layouts, independent homes and newer apartment buildings, popular for its schools and hospitals.
- Government-era kitchens are commonly narrow and long, which suits a parallel or straight modular layout with deep drawers.
- Ground-floor kitchens benefit from raised plinths and BWP plywood in the base units to keep floor moisture and mopping water away.
- Cement shelves and an old slab are common in older homes, and removing them adds civil cost before modular units go in.
- Value-conscious owners here often choose standard laminate shutters and spend the savings on branded drawer channels and hinges.
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
Raise base units on the ground floor
A plinth or adjustable legs keep cabinets clear of floor moisture.
- 02
Spend on drawers, not decoration
Good drawer channels make the kitchen easier to use for years. Decorative shutters can be simpler.
- 03
Consider a parallel layout
In narrow kitchens, a parallel layout gives more counter and storage space than a single wall.
- 04
Decide on the slab early
Choose whether to keep or replace the old slab before design. It changes the cost significantly.
- 05
Plan the chimney route
Check whether the wall allows a duct. If not, a recirculating chimney may be an option.

FAQ
Common cost questions
Still unsure? Our designers are happy to answer anything on a call.
Should I keep the old kitchen slab?
If it is level, at a comfortable height and in good condition, modular units can be fitted below it. If not, replacing it gives a better result. The designer will assess it.
What does a Basic kitchen cost here?
Approximately ₹50K – ₹93K before GST for a typical 2BHK kitchen. Running length, accessories and countertop decide the final figure.
Is a parallel kitchen better for narrow spaces?
Often, yes. A parallel layout uses both walls for storage and counter space, which suits narrow government-era kitchens.
Do ground-floor kitchens need special materials?
BWP plywood and raised plinths for base units are recommended. They protect against floor moisture and frequent mopping.
How long does a kitchen take?
Production typically takes 15–20 working days after sign-off. Civil work in older kitchens must be completed before installation.
