Dream
Kitchen
Step 1
Determine your needs.
An Indian kitchen is a place where complex processes and a variety of ingredients bring to life recipes that are rich in flavours and colours. While planning your kitchen, it is important to determine your specific needs in line with your culinary habits and lifestyle.
Family Size And Lifestyle
Your family size, culinary habits, cuisine preference, storage requirements and lifestyle is an important criterion in determining your kitchen layout, finish and style.
Time
A kitchen is the hearth of any Indian home. A space that nourishes the body and soul. We understand the importance of this and ensure that we deliver your kitchen in time without any delays.
Budget
Indian homemakers are value seeking, hence our designers help you design kitchens that fit your requirements and your budget. Our easy finance scheme help you get a kitchen befitting your lifestyle, without a compromise.
Step 2
Design the layout
A typical Indian kitchen is a busy hive of activity where complex processes and cuisine culture need to come together in perfect harmony. Hence, we use the right combination of 5-Z and 3-C principles to make every kitchen efficient and ergonomically friendly.
5 Zone Principle
An “Intelligent/Dynamic” kitchen designed with the 5Z principle offers the benefit of shorter distances, ergonomic work processes and practical storage solutions
3C Principle
The 3-C principle increases the efficiency of the kitchen area. Simply put, the 3-C principle stands for cooking (hob), cleaning (sink) and cooling (refrigerator). These are considered to be three vertices of a triangle, where the sum of distances between all three vertices should ideally be 20 feet for any kitchen to be efficient and optimised.
Kitchen Layouts
Straight Lined Kitchen
A straight kitchen has all the work sections along one wall and is ideal for a small space. This layout provides storage cabinets on the top and drawers at the bottom.
Parallel Lined Kitchen
A Parallel kitchen has two platforms, along with crafty cabinets that run parallel to one another. They provides for separate cooking, prepping and staging area along with ample storage space.
L-Shaped Lined Kitchen
L-shaped kitchens are perfectly aligned to the golden triangle rule. Efficient and organized, this layout offers two work zones in one kitchen and ample storage area which make them perfect for Indian lifestyle
Step 3
Choose the cabinets
Indian kitchens present unique challenges when it comes to storage types and materials. The cooking methods and storage needs make it necessary to provide materials that are durable, heat and water resistant, low on maintenance and a perfect combination of shapes and sizes
Types of Materials
Indian kitchens endure a tremendous amount of wear and tear due to the unique cooking and prepping style. Hence require materials that are heat stain, moisture resistant, durable and easy on to clean and maintenance

Cabinets become functional only after they have been fitted with handles. Choose from a fine selection of handles that range from simple to ornate and from glossy metal to matte finish.
Step 6
View the kitchen in 3D
