FAQs

Understanding the difference between the two; largely, both are methods of construction and have to deal more with architecture and engineering than design. Visually, more or less both might look same superficially. Functionally they are totally different. A well designed modular kitchen gives optimum storage space, justifying each and every square feet one has heavily paid for. In terms of safety and hygiene, the latter definitely proves to be a winner. Modular kitchen deals much lesser with cement, concrete and rough surfaces thereby minimizing the chances of leakage, crevices (haven for rodents) and waste of space. Decision between the two depends on the current situation of the kitchen; whether the platform and verticals are already laid or given by the builder and if the customer is willing to put an extra buck to break it and rebuild the kitchen (ofcourse this time ergonomically as per the customer requirements), or if he/she wants to utilize the current materials and build over it. Technically, as a designer, I personally recommend my clients to invest in a modular structure, enabling many benefits like choosing comfortable height of the platform, optimizing storage space, freedom to choose lighter colours for your worktop, much better finishing of the tiles and counter top than what the builder provides, better sustainability and many more.

Modular kitchen, unfortunately has been confounded and miscontrued by many in India. Thanks to many who have misleaded people with the very meaning of it. A modular kitchen done right, can give you much more benefits than what a civil kitchen can and also better longeivity. Just by putting soft close Hafele or Hettich hinges and Tandem drawers, a kitchen does not become modular. A Modular Kitchen is a style of construction where different modules come together and are interconnected to form a structure. Yes, we at The Kitchen Artisan, go an extra mile to make these modules completely customizable facilitating umpteen number of choices and freedom to make your space truly personalized and bespoke. Factory precision delivers quality results compared to hand-made on site structures. Civil structures eventually need a ply frame work to fix the hardware (as ply has better screw-holding capacity), encroaching futhermore space. Hence to answer this question, a modular kitchen can last you easily for 12-15 years if the installation is done right and has many unseen benefits too.

The Kitchen Artisan gives life time warranty on most of its products. By 'life-time' we mean the life-time of the product which usually is 7 years. This warranty is included on hinges, channels, our SS 304 Chrome plated baskets, Soft closing wooden drawers and on manufacturing defects for the ply or wood component.

This entirely depends on materials and finishes. Tentatively a modular kitchen with Quartz top can cost anywhere between 3 and 5 lacs INR (7,000 USD) for Laminated kitchen finish. Premium finishes like SS, Veneer or PU paint can cost more.
