Can one easily change the look of
a modular kitchen in a few years?
•Modular units are easy to install
and after going through the layouts and dimensions, an area
can be designed or re-designed to suit a persons needs.
Be it the need for more space or the needs to revamp the
look of an old kitchen.
What are the current trends on the modular kitchen scene?
•Design depends on the space
available and the personal choice of a consumer. If a kitchen
area is spacious, a combination of all black with a hint
of steel or aluminum looks beautiful. If one wants a kitchen
to look bright and bask in natural light, then light colors
is the way to go. Many people go in for the stainless steel
look as it is the most hygienic material, but at the same
time it may also give off a very industrial sterile feel.
Q. What about hobs and chimneys?
•The hobs are where the heating
units are concealed beneath ceramic, metal or granite surfaces.
Hobs come in different shapes and sizes, with two, three
or more burners as an option.
•The chimney is no longer seen
only as a lifestyle product, but has now become a utility.
A chimney makes the kitchen area smoke-free unlike most
traditional kitchens, where due to the lack of proper ventilation
the kitchen becomes a claustrophobic place for cooking Chimneys
come in various colors, shapes and features like in built-in
pest repellent, air purifier and both exhaust and re-circulation
modes.
Q. Are stainless steel sinks a better
option than granite ones?
•More and more people are installed
stainless steel sinks as they are easy to clean and look
neat. They don’t promote growth of mould, mildew or
bacteria and sparkle with just one wipe. Steel sinks come
readymade, whereas granite ones has to be made. A stainless
steel sink is easily removed and fitted in case of problems
or leakages.
Q. What kind of flooring should
one use in the kitchen?
•Marble, granite, ceramic tiles,
mosaic tiles, vitrified tiles etc. We recommend using a
harder stone as the kitchen is a room where bulky utensils
and equipment are shifted, causing scratches and indents.
•Granite is a widely preferred
material for the flooring as it is easy to clean and matches
practically anything. Although marble absorbs water quickly
which makes it prone to staining, it scores high in the
looks department.
