Kitchens are fast becoming the center of homes today. All the activity is moving away from living rooms to kitchens. With nuclear families and working couples, men are increasingly contributing to the kitchens. As a result, with disposable incomes rising and both the lady and the man of the house involved in using the kitchen, purchasing a kitchen is a decision demanding a fair share of mind and heart. Yet, modular kitchen makers, and re-sellers, a.k.a. retailers, face the BIG question from homeowners, ‘WHY is their kitchen more expensive than the one offered by the carpenter?’ Also, ‘Which one has a better finish – Factory made modular kitchen vs carpenter made kitchen?’
Our ‘technical fraternity’ – Architects & Interior Designers, should take up this role of convincing the homeowner much more vigorously, of the advantages of a standardized, factory made modular kitchen vs carpenter made kitchen.

The list of advantages is endless but broadly, these can be listed as follows:
All the above areas are worth paying attention to, and worth appreciation. A ‘modular kitchen’ is way above the scope of a carpenter, however good he may be.
To sum up, the kitchen, being a ‘system’, needs a proper vision and ‘technical prowess’ to get it going. As an industry, we must promote the adoption of ‘Standardised, Factory Made Kitchens’. This will go a long way in not only bringing more economies of scale but also catapulting the kitchen industry to the next level.
