Modular Kitchen Designers in Aminjikarai
Kitchen designers in Aminjikarai mostly work on conversions: a narrow kitchen with an old granite platform, open shelves and a loft, often with a utility balcony beside it. The job is to fit a modular kitchen around fixed plumbing and windows while moving bulky items out to the utility.

Our approach
How we handle modular kitchen projects
What we plan for
- Work triangle between hob, sink and fridge
- Appliance sizes and electrical points
- Tall unit and pantry pull-out planning
- Chimney, exhaust and ventilation
What drives the cost
- Running length of base and wall cabinets
- Shutter finish (laminate, acrylic, PU)
- Hardware such as tandem drawers, corner units and lift-ups
- Countertop and backsplash scope
Materials we recommend
- BWP plywood carcasses for wet zones near the sink
- Edge-banded shutters to resist Chennai humidity
- Soft-close hinges and channels from branded hardware makers
- Quartz or granite chosen before production so cut-outs line up
Mistakes to avoid
- Finalising cabinets before appliance models are chosen
- Too few drawers and too many hinged shutters
- Ignoring exhaust and chimney ducting
- Leaving the countertop decision until installation

Planning interiors in Aminjikarai
A central residential pocket between Anna Nagar and Chetpet, with older apartment blocks and newer mid-rise developments.
- Utility balconies beside many Aminjikarai kitchens are ideal for a washing machine, a second sink and tall storage.
- Old platforms can sometimes be kept as a base for drawer modules, though uneven slabs are better replaced.
- Medium moisture risk makes BWP plywood under the sink and edge-banded shutters important.
- Families often store provisions in bulk, so tall pantry units are more useful than extra wall cabinets.

Plan smarter
Five ways to keep your budget on track
- 01
Finalise appliances before design
Decide hob, chimney, fridge and microwave sizes first so cut-outs and points are correct.
- 02
Prefer drawers to shutters
Deep drawers are easier to use than hinged base cabinets and hold heavy vessels well.
- 03
Plan the chimney duct
Confirm where the duct exits, especially in older blocks where a new wall opening may be needed.
- 04
Choose the countertop early
Decide on granite or quartz before production so sink and hob cut-outs line up.
- 05
Move bulk storage to the utility
Shift the washing machine and bulk provisions to the utility balcony to free kitchen space.

FAQ
Questions homeowners ask
Still unsure? Our designers are happy to answer anything on a call.
Can a narrow kitchen be modular?
Yes. Parallel or single-wall modules, tall units and drawers make the most of a narrow Aminjikarai kitchen.
What does a modular kitchen cost in an Aminjikarai 2BHK?
Approximately ₹50K – ₹93K in Basic, ₹60K – ₹1.1L in Premium and ₹70K – ₹1.3L in Ultra Premium, pre-GST.
Can I keep my existing platform?
If it is level and sound, modules can be fitted below it. Otherwise, replacing it gives a better finish.
Which shutter finish is easiest to maintain?
Matte laminates are durable and hide marks; acrylic is glossy but needs more frequent cleaning.
How long does a kitchen project take?
Production typically takes 15–20 working days after design approval, followed by a few days of installation.
