Modular Kitchen Designs

A modular kitchen, as the name indicates, is one that is assembled out of prefabricated modules. The cabinets come in standardised sizes and can be put together in many different configurations, based on the space available and your needs.

With small modular kitchens becoming the norm these days, HomeLane’s designers are adept at making the most of every inch of available space. Here’s how they do it!

• We make the best use of vertical space by installing cabinets that reach the ceiling, giving you extra storage for items you don't use daily. 

• Corner spaces don't go to waste either—we fit them with carousel shelves or pull-out Magic Corner units that make everything easily accessible.

• Multi-functional elements are a lifesaver in modular kitchen designs for small kitchens. We use clever hacks, like cutting boards that fit over sinks, foldable countertop pull-outs, and appliance garages that tuck away clutter to keep counters clear.

• Those narrow gaps between appliances or walls? We transform them into slim pull-out pantries perfect for spices, oils, and small bottles—turning previously unusable spaces into valuable storage! A tall narrow space becomes a mop and broom cabinet, complete with hooks for dustpans and cleaning tools.

• Smart organisational solutions like dividers for drawers, magnetic knife strips, and tailored compartments for Indian style small modular kitchen design ensure everything has its place without crowding.

• Our designers choose light colour palettes and reflective surfaces wherever possible, to visually expand the space, 

• The right lighting also makes small modular kitchen designs appear more spacious. Under-cabinet lighting improves visibility, while toe-kick lights add a lovely glow.

• Floating shelves offer both practical storage and visual breathing room, creating an airy feel and keeping the room from feeling closed-in.

When space is tight, our designers work with practical strategies to make every inch count! Need more ideas for your small modular kitchen design? Book your free consultation today.

Thoughtfully designed lighting makes all the difference in the functionality and aesthetics of your modular kitchen! Here's what works best:

• Always try to maximise natural light. When planning the layout, try to have the sink in front of a window.

• Task lighting is needed on the countertops when you chop veggies, read recipes and make dough. Under-cabinet strip lights provide even light without shadows.

• If you have an island kitchen, pendant lights above add warmth and highlight the space.

• Recessed ceiling lights provide even overall illumination so you can see into every corner and cabinet. They're incredibly practical, especially when you need to see your way around when you come down for a drink of water at night.

• If you have glass cabinets, spotlights inside will showcase whatever you’ve displayed.

• Lighting in the toe-kick space below the bottom run of cabinets adds a beautiful glow.

• Always try to use yellow light for a warm ambience. White light often ends up looking very harsh.

• Accent lights add a gorgeous ambience to your kitchen. Think of picture lights above a poster on the wall, or a colour-changing spotlight that can create different moods at different times of the day!

Never make lighting an afterthought in your modular kitchen design! Talk to your HomeLane designer about a lighting plan that’s tailored to how you actually use your space.

Yes, you can certainly integrate appliances into your modern modular kitchen design! In fact, using built-in appliances is one of the main advantages of modular kitchens, as it gives a sleek and seamless appearance. Most modular kitchen systems are designed to accommodate standard sizes of built-in appliances like ovens, microwaves, dishwashers, and refrigerators. These appliances can be installed flush with the cabinetry, so as to get a completely streamlined look.

For smaller appliances and tools, like a mixer-grinder, juicer, coffee percolator and so on, an appliance garage with roll-up doors in aluminium gives a neat appearance, tucking these often-bulky appliances away when not in use. Think of adding dedicated spaces inside drawers for other tools, such as hand mixers, milk frothers and so on. Pull-out trays, with customised spaces where you can stow away each tool along with its accessories and attachments, are a good idea.

Always let your designer know about your appliance and gadget storage needs right at the start of the project. Plan to store similar tools together in one place, for ease of access. If any of these gadgets need to be recharged, having in-drawer charging stations is very useful. Always choose your appliances at the start of the project, as your designer will need to know exact sizes before they plan your layout.

Modular kitchens generally offer great resale value as compared to traditional kitchens, as they look stylish and make the best use of every inch of space. Especially in cities, homeowners and potential buyers will always appreciate their smart looks and modern style. 

Additionally, modular kitchens come with a great many benefits when compared to traditional kitchens. The manufacture and installation time is far quicker, for instance, and this appeals to buyers who want to move in soon. Maintenance is also easy, as surfaces are designed to be stain-resistant and easier to clean. 

What’s more, modular kitchens come in standardised sizes which makes appliance integration easy. In future any replacements also become very simple as just a single module can be changed.

On the other hand, there are some people who value the bespoke charm of a carpenter-made, non-modular kitchen design, especially if it’s high-end. This will depend on how good the finishes are, and the quality of the designs and craftsmanship. 

All said and done, in many cases, the quality of materials and the durability matters more than whether it’s a modular kitchen or carpenter-made!

The cost of modular kitchens will vary based on the size of the kitchen, the materials, and the accessories. You can use our Modular Kitchen Cost Calculator tool for modular kitchen designs with price, by keying in your specifications. For instance, the minimum cost of an L-shaped modular kitchen design that is 8 feet by 6 feet will be about INR 1.3 lakhs. 

If you’re someone who is into keeping the planet green, an eco-friendly kitchen is possibly right on top of your list. Choosing eco-friendly materials, energy-efficient appliances and thoughtful design can reduce your carbon footprint a great deal. Here are some options you can look into:

• Cabinets: Bamboo, reclaimed wood and rattan wicker shutters are sustainable material choices that will age well and give a rustic farmhouse vibe. 

• Countertops: Terrazzo countertops and backsplashes make use of bits of marble, quartz, granite, glass, or other recycled materials, all set in a cement or resin base. These speckled surfaces add charm while reusing waste materials and keeping costs low. Reclaimed wood counters are also environmentally sustainable. Granite, unless sourced ethically, has environmental drawbacks as it is mined in quarries using machinery that runs on fossil fuels.

• Faucets: Installing a low-flow faucet can cut down water usage quite a bit. You can also opt for motion-sensor taps, which reduce unnecessary water waste while cooking or cleaning.

• Lighting: Use energy-saving LED lamps and strip lights to save on your electricity bills. Designing the kitchen with an abundance of natural light can help to reduce the need for electric power.

• Waste handling: Compost bins and recycling stations help to reduce the amount of wet and dry garbage. 

• Containers: Instead of plastics, use glass bottles and jars and wooden canisters that can be refilled. Stainless steel utensils last forever and keep food toxin-free.

• Backsplash: Recycled glass mosaic tiles add a lovely vibrant touch and are a sustainable choice. Terracotta or clay tiles offer a natural, earthy feel with a lower carbon footprint.

• Paints: Many conventional paints and finishes release volatile organic compounds (VOCs) slowly into the air, which affects the indoor air quality and harms the health of your family. Choosing low-VOC or water-based paints keeps the air in your kitchen fresh and free from harmful chemicals.

• Indoor greenery: Adding indoor plants reduces the toxins in the air and keeps you space looking fresh and green at a minimal cost.

By making mindful choices that keep sustainability in the forefront, you can create a modular kitchen that’s not just stylish, but also is kind to the earth!

Before your dream modular kitchen starts to take shape, our expert measurements team will visit your home to double check each and every dimension. This might seem simple, but it’s actually a very important step to ensure that everything fits just right!

Using accurate tape measures and laser instruments, they will note down the length and height of every wall. They will note the positions and sizes of windows and doors, and will mark out any columns or beams that might be in the space. They will also mark electrical points and plumbing outlets, as those are important dimensions for accurate positioning of appliances and the sink and dishwasher. If there are any uneven walls or floors, they’ll account for those as well.

Once all the dimensions are down on paper, they will mark out your cabinet and storage positions on the walls and floor using painter’s tape. You’ll start to feel that your kitchen is real, as you can actually imagine how it will look when finished! This careful process helps you visualise exactly how your new cabinets will fit, while ensuring that you’ll get an error-free finish.

Next, they will take photographs of your kitchen space from every angle, to reference while the cabinets are being manufactured. All this will ensure that your finished modular kitchen fits perfectly and functions the way you want it to.

So you’ve just started designing your modular kitchen, and want to know what are the common mistakes to avoid! We can help you there! Here are some pitfalls to stay away from:

• For starters, remember that your kitchen is all your own, and not a space in your neighbour’s house, So why should you follow what they like? Always design around your needs and your sense of style instead of blindly aping others!

• Always have your budget in mind when planning the kitchen. It’s very easy to get overwhelmed with the sheer number of choices you have, but small budget overshoots will quickly add up. Your designer will help to rein in your choices and keep your budget on track.

• Don't underestimate how much storage you'll need! Many homeowners regret not including enough cabinets, drawers, and accessories to hold all their kitchen items. Storage should never, ever be an afterthought.

• Something else that shouldn’t be an afterthought is the lighting design! Good lighting can make or break your design. Plan adequate task lighting over counters, general lighting in the ceiling, and accent lighting for that lovely ambience.

• Never block a window by placing a tall cabinet in front or even next to it. Natural light makes your kitchen feel more spacious and pleasant. 

• Ensure you have sufficient counter space for food prep, especially near the stove and sink. Many modular kitchens sacrifice this very important working area for aesthetics.

• Don’t choose materials based only on their looks! Beautiful doesn't always mean practical. Select countertops, backsplashes, and cabinets that can withstand spills, heat, and heavy use while still being easy to clean.

• A powerful exhaust system is essential but often overlooked. Without proper ventilation, cooking odours, grime and grease particles will spread throughout your home.

• Many people forget to install enough power points and end up using a multiplug. Think ahead, and plan for plenty of electrical outlets at convenient locations.

• Never sacrifice quality for affordability! Cheaper materials and low-quality hardware will lead to repairs and replacements all too soon. Investing in quality pays rich dividends in the long run.

• Always plan ahead, instead of only thinking of the present! For instance, if you want to install a dishwasher down the line, unless you have planned for it you won’t have space.

• Never choose colours based on fleeting trends. Bold red might be all the rage right now, but you might soon get tired of the visual overload. A timeless colour palette always works best.

If all this sounds overwhelming to you, you don’t have to worry—not when you have a HomeLane designer by your side! We’ve been there and done all that, and know how to steer clear of mistakes like these.

At HomeLane, we do all we can to ensure your modular kitchen is completely tailored to your needs, not straight out of a modular kitchen design catalogue! We start with an in-depth, genuine conversation, where we really listen to all that you have to say. Our designers take time to understand how you actually use your kitchen—your cooking style, family routines, and specific storage needs. We’ll understand your budget, and find out what you like and what you don’t.

If you have any modular kitchen ideas, this is when you should let us know! Bring along modular kitchen design photos of a space that you loved, or maybe all your choices on a Pinterest board. You can also tag modular kitchen images from catalogues or blogs to show us what you like. From all these modular kitchen photos, we’ll narrow down your choices, based on what will actually work well for your space.

We'll ask you the right questions about everyday moments, like whether you love hosting dinner parties or need child-friendly or elder-friendly spaces. Tell us about your hobbies, how you relax and unwind, and what you do on a lazy weekend. These discussions reveal the details that make your kitchen uniquely yours.

As you share your vision, our designers bring it to life through design sessions where you can explore different styles and materials together. We'll even bring samples so you can touch and feel finishes in your actual space. All the while, we’ll show you modular kitchen designs with price estimates, too, so that you can make informed material decisions that align with your budget.

What makes our approach special is how we balance listening to your wishes, while gently guiding you with our expertise. We might suggest clever solutions you hadn't even thought of, based on our experience with similar spaces!

Before anything is finalised, you'll walk through a 3D visualisation of your new modular kitchen, making adjustments until everything feels just right. Only once you’re happy with both the design and the budget, do we move on to the next step!

Yes, of course you can! In fact, all consultations and design services at HomeLane come completely free of charge. We believe in ensuring you have all the information you need before making such an important investment in your home.

When you schedule a consultation, you’ll get to discuss your requirements with one of our interior designers. They will get into the smallest details of your lifestyle, your daily routine, and your budget, and will understand your style preferences as well.

Following this, our team creates detailed 3D visualisations of your kitchen using our SpaceCraft design platform, allowing you to see exactly how your new kitchen will look. You can explore different layout options, cabinet styles, colour schemes, and material choices—all without any obligation or service fees!

Together with each design, you’ll also get a costing that you can use to make informed material and design choices. The cost estimate you receive breaks down all components of your modular kitchen, from cabinetry and countertops to hardware and accessories. This transparent approach helps you understand exactly what you're investing in and allows you to adjust elements to fit your budget.

Your journey to your dream modular kitchen interior begins with an easy chat—and at HomeLane, that conversation won't cost you a thing!

A modular kitchen is a sleek, modern kitchen setup made of pre-manufactured units (called modules, hence the name) that fit together like puzzle pieces. Every module is manufactured in our factory to the highest standards of quality. These ready-made cabinets, drawers and countertops arrive in flat packs and are assembled on-site according to the layout of your kitchen. Each modular kitchen component is designed to fit neatly alongside the next, creating a cohesive and efficient workspace.

Traditional kitchens, on the other hand, are built from scratch by local carpenters who work directly in your home. The carpenter measures your space, cuts the wood, and crafts each element by hand. Everything from the modular kitchen cabinets to the shelving is custom-made for your specific kitchen, often featuring more ornate details and traditional styles of woodwork.

The main differences are in how they're made, how long they take to install, how easily they can be changed, and their overall look and feel. Modular kitchens have been found to be highly advantageous for modern homes, and are fast becoming the more popular choice of discerning homeowners across the country. 

At HomeLane, we’re known to create beautiful modern modular kitchen designs that are tailored to your unique needs. Do set up your free consultation and get an instant quote with tailored designs in 3D.

A modular kitchen brings several lovely advantages to your home. To start with, these kitchens are designed by expert interior designers who keep themselves updated with all the latest modular kitchen interior design trends. You’ll get space-efficient and ergonomic designs that look like they belong on the pages of a stylish interior design magazine.

These kitchens are designed to be clever space-savers, perfect for a compact home! We can factor in thoughtful storage solutions like pull-out larders, corner organisers, and multi-tiered drawers, helping you to make the most of every nook and cranny. All your kitchen essentials are stored neatly and beautifully organised, easily accessible when you need them, and just as easily tucked out of sight when you don’t!

Unlike a carpenter made kitchen which can take months, the quick installation is a breath of fresh air—your new kitchen can be ready in days rather than weeks, meaning less disruption to your daily routine! The readymade modular kitchen cabinets are all created in the factory and brought to your home in pre-finished pieces, which means that there is minimal mess or noise at your home.

Quality is a given with a modular kitchen. The factory-made modular kitchen components ensure consistent finishes and neat edges, which is next to impossible to get with handcrafted carpentry! Modern materials used in modular units are also more resistant to moisture, heat and everyday wear.

When you sign up with HomeLane, we give you a 45-day delivery guarantee. No more waiting endlessly for carpenters to finish the work! We’ve got expert project managers who handle everything for you and stay on top of timelines.

You’ll also get guaranteed quality, as all our materials are handpicked for their durability and style. Your modular kitchen design will continue to look amazing and function well for years to come. In fact, At HomeLane we’re so sure of our quality that we’re ready to back our materials and workmanship with a no-questions-asked 10-year warranty.

Perhaps most delightful is the flexibility—you can easily update just one section if needed, or even take your kitchen with you when moving house! This adaptability means your kitchen can easily evolve as your needs change over the years.

Sounds good? Come visit us and let’s get the ball rolling on your dream kitchen!

The layout you pick for your modular kitchen design depends on the space available in your home and also on your cooking needs. Here are your choices:

• The L-shaped modular kitchen design continues to be a favourite among homeowners. As the name indicates, this layout has cabinets along two adjoining walls at right angles to each other. This arrangement creates a natural work triangle between the cooktop, sink and refrigerator while leaving plenty of space for movement. It's a great option for medium-sized kitchens where family members can chat with the cook without getting in the way!

• Parallel modular kitchen designs, also called galley kitchens, have two rows of cabinets facing each other, which is the ideal option for narrow spaces. This efficient design puts everything within easy reach and maximises storage in compact homes. Many people find this layout perfect for urban apartment living.

• The U-shaped modular kitchen design wraps around three walls, offering abundant counter space and storage. It's just right for enthusiastic home chefs who need plenty of room for multiple appliances, and enjoy having separate zones for prepping, cooking and cleaning.

• If space permits, an island kitchen is a dream come true for cooking enthusiasts! Island kitchens have become increasingly sought after of late, and include a standalone workspace (the island) in the centre of the room. These islands serve as social hubs, homework stations, or perfect spots for Zoom calls, where friends and family can perch on stools while dinner is prepared.

• Peninsula kitchens extend from a wall like an island but remain connected at one end. They provide the social benefits of an island while defining different zones in an open modular kitchen layout. The rest of the space can be a U-shape or L-shaped modular kitchen or with parallel counters.

Every layout comes with its pros and cons, and you should sit down with your HomeLane designer to narrow down your choices and find what’s right for you.

Here are the most popular styles in the world of modular kitchen design today!

• On top of popularity charts right now, minimal kitchens embrace the "less is more" philosophy with clean lines, handle-less push-to-open modular kitchen cupboards and cabinets, and clutter-free countertops. These pared-down spaces prefer neutral colour palettes—often whites, greys, and subtle earth tones—creating an airy, peaceful cooking environment. Their beauty lies in their innate simplicity—with hidden storage solutions maintaining their sleek appearance, even as they give you practical solutions for compact spaces.

• Traditional modular kitchen designs bring timeless elegance to modern homes. Rich wood finishes, ornate hardware, raised panel cabinet doors, and decorative mouldings create a warm, inviting atmosphere that’s a nod to the past. These kitchens feature classic elements like open shelving for displaying your collection of pretty dishes, or decorative cornices above the cabinetry.

• Modern modular kitchen designs showcase sleek materials like high-gloss acrylic, tempered glass, and stainless steel. This lovely aesthetic prioritises straight lines, built-in appliances, and clever storage solutions. Smart technology is easily integrated—think faucets fitted with sensors, and programmable appliances that make life a whole lot easier!

• Love to be different? Colour-blocked kitchens play with bold contrasts and vibrant hues to create stunning visual impact. This playful style pairs complementary or contrasting modular kitchen cabinet colours—perhaps navy lower cabinets with white uppers, or black against red! Add a dollop of personality, even as you go with clean lines and practical functionality!

• If you love the unfinished and edgy look, industrial style is all about raw materials and utilitarian elements. Exposed brick walls, concrete countertops, metal shelving, and pipe fixtures create a stark yet functional space. These kitchens love open shelving, pendant lighting with metal shades, and modern appliances.

• Transitional kitchens are a bridge between the old and the new, blending traditional comfort with modern simplicity. Think of pairing Shaker-style cabinets with sleek quartz countertops, or combine classic subway tile with modern lighting. The result feels timeless yet current—neither overly ornate nor starkly minimal!

Your countertop is where you’ll prep delicious meals, lay down dishes, and maybe even enjoy a cup of coffee! When it comes to material options, you should choose based on style, looks, durability and affordability. Here’s a breakdown of the most popular options to help you make an informed decision.

Granite: If you love the natural look at an affordable price point, granite is the obvious choice. Black granite is by far the most popular colour, but you can also pick from grey, white, green, red and brown shades. With unique veining and colour variations, no two modular kitchen platform granite designs are ever the same! Granite is heat-resistant, scratch-proof, and incredibly durable—it pretty much lasts forever.

Marble: Lustrous and glossy, marble is a high-end finish that adds an air of elegance to any luxury modular kitchen. Keep in mind: it does need quite a bit of maintenance, so be prepared to keep re-sealing and re-polishing to prevent pitting and staining. Also, watch out for citrus splashes and turmeric stains, as it is a soft natural stone.

Corian: If you like sleek modular kitchens with seamless surfaces, Corian is worth a second look! Corian from Dupont is a solid surface material that wraps around counters, integrated modular sinks and backsplashes, creating a clean, modern look. It’s a tad on the more expensive side, so if you’re working with a limited budget you may need to think twice. It’s available in an array of colours to match your chosen palette.

Quartz: Available in a wide variety of colours and speckles, quartz is a lovely choice for your modern kitchen. Unlike natural stones like granite or marble, quartz is an engineered stone that’s made of crushed quartz and resin. It is non-porous, highly durable and lasts for decades. Quartz is available at various price points to fit your budget.

Butcher Block: If you love the cosy rustic farmhouse vibe, then this one’s for you! Made of solid wood, butcher block countertops age beautifully and add vintage charm to any kitchen. They require sanding and repolishing every once in a while to keep the beauty intact.

Not sure which one to choose for your modular kitchen design? Your HomeLane designer can tell you which one will match your budget and your décor theme!

When you think of your dream modular kitchen design, what is it that comes to mind at once? Chances are, it’s the colour of the cabinets and the paint you choose! To create a modular kitchen that truly stands out, the right choice of colours plays an important role. Here are some colour palettes that tick all the boxes when it comes to style.

• Dove Grey + Olive Green: Grey, of course, is the perfect neutral, and pairing it with olive green makes your kitchen come alive with freshness and earthy vibrancy. This olive green modular kitchen combo whispers elegance, even as it nurtures new life.

• Crisp White + Natural Wood: Time-tested, yet surprisingly fresh every single time, this duo creates breathing space while keeping things grounded. The beauty lies in the contrast—of pristine white cabinetry alongside the character and warmth of wooden modular kitchen designs.

• Charcoal + Blush Pink: Here’s a pairing for those who are bold at heart! The deep charcoal grounds the space while soft blush elements add a touch of personality. It's sophisticated without being stuffy—a lovely balance that's hard to achieve, but well worth the try!

• Black + White: The classic yin and yang pairing, black and white never fails to make an impact. Try white upper cabinets to maintain brightness, with black lower cabinets for grounding. Anchor the space with a checkered backsplash.

• Mustard and Brown: Mustard adds an earthy pop of colour, that’s warm without being overwhelming. Brown brings in a deep connection to nature and a timeless quality to your modular kitchen.

• Sea Green + Rich Cream: When tranquillity is the goal, this gentle sea green modular kitchen colour combination delivers, and how! This is a lovely combo for a kitchen that’s rooted in time and yet feels like a breath of fresh air.

The modular kitchen colours you choose set the tone for countless meals and cherished memories, so make your choices with care! When you come to HomeLane, we’ll show you your kitchen designs in 3D and you can play around with the colours and textures till you arrive at a modular kitchen colour combination you love.

Your kitchen is arguably the most important space in your home—it’s where life happens! Here’s a quick peek into the latest modular kitchen designs in 2025.

Nature-inspired kitchens are making a big splash this year. Think of using a built-in herb planter next to the windowsill for farm-to-table foods. A touch of rattan in light fixtures and maybe a side console or modular kitchen cabinet design adds warmth. Earthy tones like olive green, terracotta, and warm taupe, paired with natural wood and granite or marble countertops, tick all the boxes on style and sustainability.

Two-tone cabinetry is another stylish trend that has stayed on top of popularity charts for quite a while now. Try pairing dark lower cabinets with lighter upper ones for a balanced look. Mix and match a few glass cabinets or floating shelves for a lighter touch. Matte finishes paired with wood textures add depth, while metallic accents in brass, copper, or black give your space a lovely, edgy look. 

As spaces become more compact, smart storage solutions are the need of the hour. Magic corners and carousel units make the most of every inch, while appliance garages keep your countertops neat and clutter-free. Plan well ahead so that every utensil and tool has its own designated spot.

Minimalism is another trend that’s never going away anytime soon! Homeowners love the pared-down, simple and seamless look. Hidden LED lighting under cabinets or along shelves adds a soft, warm glow, making the kitchen feel cosy and warm. Think of using built-in appliances for a sleek look.

Sustainability also continues to be popular, and with good reason too, as climate change is on top of everyone’s minds! Eco-friendly modular kitchens are sought after, with bamboo or reclaimed wood cabinetry, energy-efficient smart appliances, and non-toxic, chemical free materials and finishes. Wherever possible, composting and using solar energy has become a way of life.

Whatever may be your chosen style, your HomeLane designer will help to put it together for you!

A modular kitchen is not only about style, it’s about making your space more efficient. Smart storage and organisers can help to do just that! Your kitchen designer will help you make a list of all your storage needs, and will then map out the storage units so that everything has its place.

Cutlery trays are lifesavers, with designated compartments in which every ladle, spoon, fork, and knife sits neatly in its space. No more searching for that elusive spoon while you’re in the middle of cooking! Pot and pan holders keep your heavy cookware neatly stored, so you’re not struggling to lift stacks of lids, kadais and tawas!

Tandem boxes are deep, smooth-gliding drawers that can bear heavy weights like pressure cookers and urulis. They can even store everything from plates to thalis and more. If you like to shop for your monthly groceries all at once, a pantry pullout is a must-have for stowing all those packets away.

A bottle pullout keeps oils, sauces, and beverages neatly arranged and within reach. Have an awkward corner that’s hard to reach? A Magic Corner unit or a carousel unit makes use of every inch, so you don’t waste any space at all!

Have a lot of appliances and tools just sitting on the counter and looking messy? For a clutter-free countertop, an appliance garage keeps your toaster, juicer, blender, and coffee maker tucked away but still easily accessible when needed. Keep seasonings right next to the hob on a neatly located modular kitchen rack for spices. A peg board on the backsplash is also great to have.

With all these innovative storage solutions in place, your modular kitchen is not only lovely to look at, but smart and functional too. Come visit our Experience Centre to see all these organisers, and much more, and get inspiration for your own kitchen!

The IoT has taken over every aspect of our lives, and modular kitchens aren’t far behind! No longer just a place to cook, modular kitchens are smart and efficient and connected to our lives.  With just a few clicks on your mobile, you can get your kitchen to work for you even if you aren’t around!

Check out these new-age smart solutions:

• AI powered refrigerators can track the food stored inside and tell you when you’re running low on supplies. They can even suggest recipes based on the veggies in stock.

• Wi-fi enabled microwaves and ovens can pre-heat food, cook using timers and adjust the temperature using a mobile app.

• A smart dishwasher saves water and adjusts energy usage based on the load.

• Motion-sensor enabled faucets save water and don’t drip.

• Automatic chimneys switch on when needed, and switch off with just the wave of a hand. They can even adjust airflow based on the cooking activity that’s happening.

• Voice-controlled lights can be turned on or off by Alexa, your friendly assistant.

• Solar-powered cookers save on electricity.

• Smart countertops with integrated wireless charging pads come in useful to keep your devices charged, while you follow digital recipes.

• A smart coffee maker keeps your morning cuppa ready precisely when you need it.

All this is just the start of a fully automated lifestyle! Would you like to try out these ideas in your modular kitchen? HomeLane brings these cutting-edge technologies into your home, creating kitchens that are not just beautiful but incredibly functional. Just let your designer know you’re interested, and they will take care of the rest!

The average cost of your modular kitchen in India will differ based on a number of variables, such as the city you’re in, your kitchen size and layout, your choice of materials and finishes, the décor theme you pick and the complexity of your design. The kind of hardware and accessories you would like also impact the cost.

For a rough and ready cost estimate, you can try using HomeLane’s  Modular Kitchen Cost Calculator. Key in the dimensions of your kitchen, preferred materials, and other parameters, and you can receive a cost estimate tailored to your needs.?

Several factors influence the price of your modular kitchen design. Here’s the lowdown:

• Materials: Your choice of cabinet materials makes a big difference! Choosing to use particle board for the core of the cabinets will be far more cost-effective than if you choose marine plywood. For the finishes, budget-friendly laminates are gentle on your wallet. Premium options like PU paint or glossy acrylics might cost more, but add a touch of luxury to your space.

• Kitchen size and layout: Quite naturally, larger kitchens need more materials, which will dial up the costs too. Kitchens with islands or L-corners require special sleek modular kitchen accessories, which influences the final cost.

• Storage solutions: Those handy pull-out pantries, corner carousels, and soft-close modular kitchen drawer designs that make cooking a joy do add to your investment—but most homeowners find they're worth every rupee for the convenience they bring.

• Hardware: Handles and knobs, hinges and drawer systems are the most hardworking parts of your kitchen. Better quality fittings might cost more at the outset, but will serve you faithfully for years to come.

• Countertop materials: Choose from practical granite, elegant Corian, or premium quartz—your worktop material significantly impacts both aesthetics and budget.

• Personal touches: The more unique your kitchen requirements, the more customisation is needed, which can influence the pricing.

• Extras: You might find that existing plumbing or electrical points need adjusting to accommodate your new design, which can affect the overall cost.

At HomeLane, we're nothing if not transparent about these elements, helping you balance your wish list with your budget to create the best modular kitchen for your family—without any surprise costs!

We believe that a beautiful kitchen should be accessible to everyone, and your budget should never come in the way of your dream kitchen! Which is why, at HomeLane, we offer budget-friendly modular kitchen options that still look fantastic and function brilliantly.

Our laminate finishes give you the stylish look you want at a much lower cost than solid wood or acrylic. They're durable, come in loads of designs, and are perfect for families watching their spending.

Choose minimal designs without complex detailing that look elegant, while being very practical. Simple doesn't mean boring –it means thoughtful, functional, and often more affordable!

If you have a compact home, straight modular kitchens or galley kitchens may be the perfect choice for you. These simple designs use fewer materials and cost considerably less than a U-shaped or L-shape modular kitchen design, fitting comfortably into your budget.

If the upfront cost seems overwhelming, we can make it easier for you with flexible payment plans and EMI options that can spread the investment over time. You can also think of phasing out your project. Have a master plan, and get only the must-have elements right away. Some accessories, such as modular kitchen baskets or Magic Corners, can be added on later when your financial situation is easier.

During your initial consultation with us, don’t hesitate to tell us your budget concerns and comfort levels. Our designers are really good at low-cost, creative modular kitchen designs that help you get the look you want, without overspending!

We serve all major cities across the country and are always adding to our list of locations. Our modular kitchen installation services have reached thousands of homes in metropolitan areas and expanding suburbs throughout the country.

Can't visit in person? No worries at all! We'll send you a Zoom link so you can have a virtual consultation with our design experts. This way, you can discuss your kitchen needs, preferences, and space constraints from the comfort of your home.

As per HomeLane’s Modular Kitchen Cost Calculator, an 8 feet by 10 feet L-shaped simple modular kitchen design in Bengaluru, made out of pre-laminated particle board with a matte finish, will cost around INR 1,88,540.  This will include basic accessories like a detergent holder, a bottle pullout, a tandem drawer and a cutlery/cup and saucer/thali tray.

The final cost of your modular kitchen will depend on its size, layout, materials, and accessories. Premium finishes like acrylic or PU cost more, as do extra storage solutions and high-end hardware. Many Bengaluru homeowners like to spend a bit more on durable countertops like granite or quartz that can handle the rough handling expected during daily cooking. 

At HomeLane, we work with all kinds of budgets and can help you find the right balance between cost and quality. Our pricing is clear with no hidden costs, and our designers will help you prioritise what really matters for your cooking habits. We also offer financing options to help make your kitchen dreams come true.

Yes indeed, modular kitchens are perfect for small Mumbai homes! They're designed to make the most of limited space, which is exactly what Mumbai apartments need.

Think about the typical Mumbai flat—every inch of space comes at a hefty premium, and traditional kitchens often waste valuable square footage. Modular designs solve this problem by customising cabinets to fit your exact dimensions, even in oddly-shaped corners.

What makes them special for small spaces? Pull-out cabinets that tuck away when not needed. Tall units that use vertical space efficiently. Corner solutions that transform wasted areas into useful storage. Extendable counters that tuck in or fold away when not in use. Smart features like these help you organise everything from spices to biryani handis, without cluttering your countertops!

Mumbai apartments often have challenging layouts, but modular kitchens adapt beautifully. The modules are manufactured in the factory and can be assembled inside your home without much of a mess, making them the best choice for older buildings with strict renovation rules.

Beyond being super practical, these modular kitchens add the feel of spaciousness. The use of light modular kitchen colours, reflective high-gloss surfaces, and sleek finishes make your small kitchen feel a whole lot bigger than it really is.

If you’re having challenges with fitting a small modular kitchen design into your compact Mumbai home, do connect with a HomeLane designer. We love challenges, and will craft a bespoke solution that ticks all the boxes on efficiency and style.

Modular kitchen styles are staying on top of global trends, evolving in the most stylish way across these three Maharashtra cities! If you're planning a kitchen update, here's what your neighbours have been falling in love with lately.

In modular kitchens in Pune, homeowners are embracing warm, earthy colours that create cosy cooking spaces. Think terracotta, soft olive greens, and sandy beiges that feel both modern and welcoming. These shades pair wonderfully with the natural light that many Pune apartments enjoy. Pune homeowners also love to add an herb garden near the kitchen, on the window sill if space permits.

Thane families are getting creative with storage solutions that make the most of every inch. Pull-out pantry systems that tuck away between cabinets are incredibly popular—as are corner units that transform awkward, hard-to-reach spaces into useful storage for all your kitchen essentials.

In Navi Mumbai's contemporary homes, handleless cabinets are the new must-have! With simple push mechanisms, these sleek designs create clean lines and a spacious feel—perfect for the modern aesthetic that many residents prefer.

Across all three cities, kitchen islands that serve multiple purposes are becoming the heart of the home. They're not just for cooking anymore—they're where families gather, kids do homework, and friends chat while dinner is being prepared. Open modular kitchen designs lend a spacious feel in compact apartments, extending sightlines and visually expanding spaces.

Many homeowners are adding personal touches through statement backsplashes with subtle pattern work or textured surfaces. These focal points add character and a special, unique touch to modular kitchen designs.

What we absolutely love about these trends is how they blend practicality with personality, infusing spaces with soul! Your kitchen can be both a joy to use and a reflection of your unique style—something HomeLane designers are particularly skilled at bringing to life in homes across Maharashtra.

So when are you visiting us at your nearest Experience Centre? We’d love to get the ball rolling on your modular kitchen!

Yes! Your modular kitchen in Hyderabad can beautifully blend modern convenience with traditional Indian charm. Here are some modular kitchen ideas.

You can add beautiful hand-carved wooden panels inspired by local Nizami architecture, or cabinet doors with delicate jaali lattice-work patterns that celebrate the rich heritage of this city. These bespoke touches bring warmth and special personality to your kitchen.

Why not choose a colour palette that reflects Indian culture? Haldi yellow, chilli red, or the peaceful blues found in traditional pottery can make your kitchen feel lively and welcoming. Choose cabinets in these colours, or look for a tiled backsplash that incorporates ethnic colours and patterns.

With a modular kitchen in Hyderabad, you can enjoy modern convenience with smart storage solutions, while still preserving the soul of time-honoured Hyderabadi cooking traditions. For cooking traditional dishes, your designer will plan special spots for stone grinders, easy-access spice racks in the modular kitchen, or heavy-duty shelves for bulky utensils like handis and urulis.   You can dish up a classical biryani or favourites like mirchi ka salan and baghara baingan, even as you cook a spaghetti or pizza dish with equal flair.

So if you’re looking for a kitchen design in Hyderabad, look no further than HomeLane! Your HomeLane designer will create spaces that are as functional as they are stylish, perfectly tailored to how your family uses this space. 

Chennai's sea breeze adds a lovely connect with nature, but it also poses many challenges for your kitchen. The right materials make all the difference between a modular kitchen that withstands coastal conditions and one that struggles against them!

Marine-grade plywood should be your best friend in Chennai's humid climate. Unlike commercial-grade plywood, it stays strong against warping and swelling when moisture levels rise during monsoon seasons. You’ll be able to happily brew your morning filter kaapi, without worrying about cabinet doors that won't close properly!

For exterior surfaces, consider high-quality laminates or polyurethane finishes. These create a protective seal against salt-laden air that can gradually corrode less robust materials. Every edge should be completely sealed so as to prevent the entry of any moisture which can cause the core to swell and warp. The beauty of modern laminates is their ability to mimic the warmth of wood or other finishes, while offering the best protection against Chennai's coastal conditions.

Quartz countertops are a great idea in readymade modular kitchens in Chennai. They resist the staining that can happen when preparing tamarind-rich dishes like sambar or rasam, while also holding up against humidity that might damage natural stone. Their non-porous surface also discourages mould growth—a huge concern in coastal areas.

For hardware, marine-grade stainless steel is worth every extra rupee. Door handles, hinges and drawer slides made from quality stainless steel resist corrosion from salty air that can sneak in through open windows during sea breezes.

The perfect modular kitchen interior in Chennai balances beauty with practicality. Come to HomeLane, and we’ll custom-craft your dream modular kitchen design for you!

Looking at the latest modular kitchen trends in Ahmedabad, here are the most popular ones:

• Ahmedabad homeowners love to stay connected to their roots! Contemporary fusion is perhaps the most sought-after style, as it uses traditional Gujarati elements in a modern context. You might find sleek cabinetry in neutral tones accented with vibrant Gujarati patterns on backsplashes. Traditional metal handles add an ornate touch.

• Scandinavian-inspired kitchens are much-loved for their light wood finishes, white cabinetry, and minimalist aesthetics. This style creates an airy, bright feeling that many Ahmedabad homeowners appreciate, especially in apartments where maximising light is important.

• Industrial chic is trending among younger homeowners and features exposed brick elements, concrete countertops, and matte black hardware. This style often uses open shelving to display cookware and decorative items.

• White modular kitchens are always a favourite among discerning homeowners in Ahmedabad. Pastel palettes have become surprisingly sought after, too, with soft blues, mint greens, and gentle yellows bringing an understated, yet sophisticated vibe to kitchens. Paired with white countertops, these hues offer a fresh, clean look.

• Gujaratis love to use earthy elements in the form of wooden accent cabinets, indoor plants, and stone countertops. This organic approach helps create balance in an otherwise modern space.

• Two-tone cabinetry is another strong trend, with upper cabinets in lighter shades and lower cabinets in deeper tones creating visual interest. Floating shelves and glass cabinets add a lighter touch.

Want some guidance crafting the most stylish modular kitchen Ahmedabad has ever seen? HomeLane is always happy to help!

Your modular kitchen is an investment that will look as good as new for decades, given the right care! Just a little maintenance is all it takes to keep those sleek surfaces and clever storage solutions looking showroom-perfect for years to come.

• Consistency is key! Daily wiping with a soft microfibre cloth prevents cooking residues from becoming stubborn stains. 

• For laminate surfaces, a gentle mixture of warm water and mild washing-up liquid works wonders, but make sure to avoid any cleaners with harsh chemicals that can damage finishes. 

• Those beautiful hardware handles? A quick wipe prevents fingerprints from dulling their shine.

• Spills are a given in every kitchen, however careful you are! The secret is addressing them straight away. Turmeric and acid stains (lime, citrus, vinegar) can permanently stain if left to settle, especially on lighter surfaces, so make sure to wipe the counters as soon as they spill or splash.

• Drawer slides and hinges will stay smooth with just a quick dab of oil every once in a while, preventing that telltale squeak that signals wear. 

• Appliances like the OTG, microwave and mixer-grinder need deep cleaning every couple of months to prevent dust and grime buildup that can affect both their appearance and the way they function. 

• Do give your modular kitchen chimney and hob a monthly deep clean to keep them sparkling, too!

Over the years, if a shutter or cabinet needs to be repaired or replaced, it’s very easy to do so. This is one of the main benefits of a modular kitchen—if any of the elements shows signs of wear, it can be replaced without having to dismantle the entire unit.

Every surface in your modular kitchen requires specific care to maintain its beauty and durability over the years. Here are some pointers that will help:

Glass Cabinets:

• A quick wipe with a soft microfibre cloth dampened with warm water and washing-up liquid keeps fingerprints and dust at bay.

• For the neatest results, dry completely with a clean microfibre cloth using circular motions.

• For greasy marks that won’t go away easily, a home-made cleaner made of 1:1 white vinegar and warm water is best.

  
  

Laminated Surfaces

• At the end of every day, wipe down with a soft, damp microfibre cloth and mild liquid dishwash.

• Avoid using harsh chemicals or rough, abrasive scrubbers.

• Wipe up liquid spills at once.

• If there are any spills of substances that could stain your laminates (turmeric, chill powder and so on), remove them immediately to prevent permanent marking.

  
  

Acrylic Modular Kitchens/High Gloss Finishes

• Clean with damp microfibre cloths only to prevent tiny scratches that can remove the glossy shine.

• Use designated acrylic cleaners or diluted washing-up liquid to wipe down the surfaces.

• Avoid window and glass cleaners which can damage the finish over time.

• Polish occasionally with a dry soft cloth to maintain the shine.

  
  

Solid Wood

• Wipe with a slightly damp cloth, followed by a dry cloth.

• Use wood-specific cleaners that nourish the surface, rather than strip it of its natural oils.

• Address water rings at once with organic wood care products.

• Always use trivets when you set down hot utensils.

• Re-polish every year or so, to maintain protection and sealing of the wood.

  
  

Countertops

• For granite: Use pH-neutral cleaners and a soft cloth to wipe down the counter every day.

• For quartz: Use simple soap and water only; avoid harsh chemicals.

• For marble: Marble needs re-sealing every year to prevent porosity. Be careful to prevent lime, citrus, or vinegar spills.

  
  

Hardware and Fixtures

• Handles and knobs must be wiped down regularly with organic cleaners to prevent grime buildup.

• Lubricate hinges and drawer runners with oil every 3-6 months.

• Use gently; never slam shutters or push drawers with force.

• Drawers must never be overloaded beyond the maximum weight they can bear.

• Tighten any loose screws promptly.

Every HomeLane modular kitchen comes with our strict assurance of quality. We believe in materials and craftsmanship that stands the test of time, which is why we’re prepared to back our modular kitchens with a solid 10-year warranty! 

This is how we make sure to maintain our quality:

Before even a single component is brought to your home, detailed inspections take place at our factory. Each cabinet, drawer, and panel is examined for finish, colour consistency, and structural integrity. The modular components are then packed carefully to ensure that there's no damage that happens while in transit to your home.

During the installation, our skilled technicians use precision tools like laser levels to ensure your cabinets align correctly—because even a few millimetres matter when it comes to beautiful finishes. They will test all the hardware, including soft-close mechanisms, drawer channels and hinges, to make sure everything works the way it should.

The countertops are laid to ensure perfect horizontality, with proper sealing to prevent water damage to your cabinets. Silicone is applied neatly around the edges of the sink, so that there is an additional barrier against moisture.

Once everything is in place, a final inspection guarantees peace of mind. Small adjustments might be made to perfect the way a drawer opens, or the soft close of a cabinet door. 

Once everything is in place, we’ll do a thorough cleaning to make sure your new kitchen is sparkling clean. Only once everything is just right, do we hand over the key!

At HomeLane, we take our promises very seriously—including our 45-day delivery promise! Your modular kitchen will be handed over to you within 45 days after design sign-off, as per our schedules.

The design phase begins with an initial consultation where your requirements, preferences, and budget are discussed. Our expert designers then create customised layouts using 3D visualisation tools on our platform SpaceCraft, allowing you to see exactly how your kitchen will look. This collaborative design phase usually takes 1-2 weeks, including revisions and refinements to suit your needs and your budget.

Once you’ve approved the design and finalised the budget, you’ll pay the advance and then production begins! Your 45-day clock starts ticking and our project managers swing into action. Materials are purchased, measurements are cross-checked at your home, and designs are fine-tuned. All the cabinet components are manufactured in our state-of -the-art factories, with stringent quality checks throughout the manufacturing process.

During the last one week or ten days of the project, our installers will move into your home. They will remove existing fixtures (if applicable), prepare surfaces, and assemble your cabinets and counters neatly and efficiently. Hardware, accessories and fittings will be installed with precision, and final adjustments and quality checks will be carried out.

Through your home interior journey, we’ll keep you in the loop with clear, concise communication. We’ll ensure each phase progresses smoothly, coordinating between vendors, suppliers and workers to ensure that everything arrives on time and workers show up as expected.
