Designing a kitchen in your home can cost anywhere from 2-3 lakhs at a minimum. It can go as high as 15, 20, or even 30 lakhs depending on the materials, design, and features you choose. However, there’s one mistake that many people make that costs them a lot of money, all while trying to save just a few thousand.
The common mistake happens when homeowners call in a carpenter and ask them to design and build the kitchen. The problem with this approach is that carpenters typically have limited exposure and knowledge of the latest trends, materials, and technologies in interior design. They may not be aware of the new upgrades and options available in the market.
This is where an interior designer comes in. For a minimal fee of just ₹8,000 to ₹15,000, an interior designer can help you design a kitchen that is not only functional but aesthetically pleasing. They can advise you on the best materials, color schemes, and equipment choices. Once you have the design and plan from a professional, you can hand it over to your carpenter to execute the plan, saving you money while still achieving a high-quality kitchen.
The key takeaway is: You don’t need to spend a fortune to get a beautiful and functional kitchen. Just a small investment in expert advice can save you thousands in the long run.
