A kitchen is where most of our day happens, so we focus on making it both durable and beautiful. Our design approach moves away from standard, cold modular setups. We prioritize layout efficiency, often by integrating utility areas or removing doors to improve natural light and flow. ### Our Design Approach * **Material Palette:** We utilize BWP (Boiling Water Proof) marine grade plywood for all carcasses to ensure longevity. We pair this with durable finishes like matte laminates, PU coatings, or wood veneers, depending on your preferred aesthetic. * **Functionality First:** Whether it is a compact apartment kitchen or a large villa space, we optimize storage using tandem boxes, pull-out organizers, and custom-built units that fit your specific cooking tools. * **Visual Details:** We love adding character through elements like olive green shaker-style cabinets, fluted glass inserts, terracotta flooring, and hand-painted backsplash tiles. ### Renovation & Civil Work If you have an existing kitchen that feels dark or cramped, we handle full overhauls. This includes demolishing old granite counters, re-tiling, and re-planning plumbing to better suit a modern workflow. We frequently create breakfast nooks or small bench seating areas within the kitchen, ensuring that even while cooking, you have a spot to sit and connect with family. ## About Shivani Naseri We are Studio 3d+1, a team based in Bangalore focused on creating homes with a soul. We love working with natural materials like cane, wood, and concrete to ensure your kitchen feels as grounded and personal as the rest of your home.
