Description
A custom-made kitchen is a personalized space designed to perfectly fit your lifestyle, taste, and the unique dimensions of your home. It offers unparalleled flexibility and style.
All Wallpaper Kenya kitchens are custom-made. Our kitchen design tools make it possible for you to select and arrange furniture based on the size of the room, the location of windows and doorways, as well as all the elements of the kitchen. Our kitchen planner will design bespoke: flooring material, wall colors, lighting, communications, furniture modules, and their fittings.
It is not difficult. First of all, you have a sink, and you need to determine a place for it. When planning a kitchen in a private house, the optimal place for it is by the window. This will save energy and increase the comfort of the room, but it also has its drawbacks.
What influences how much a kitchen is custom-made in Kenya?
A custom kitchen is a valid option if you are looking for a room that combines functionality with your needs. These types of kitchens are made by our expert carpenters capable of fulfilling all your desires for comfort and design. If you decide to order this type, you should consider contacting wood craftsmen with experience in kitchen carpentry or specialized companies such as Wallpaper Kenya. So that we can interpret your specific tastes and needs and create the project of your new kitchen, entering into the heart of your personality.
The first thing we must do is decide the style of your new kitchen. Classic, modern, or whatever you like the most. But the important thing is that it creates continuity with the rest of the furniture in the home. Or, on the contrary, be disruptive and create a unique and different atmosphere in the house. It all depends on how much you want to risk.
The different materials that you can use are many and their choice has no point of comparison with a prefabricated piece of furniture: wood of all types, added to the color chart plus its finish: satin, matte, glossy, resulting in infinite possibilities that define your kitchen. of design into a true work of art.
Custom-made kitchen facade
Wallpaper Kenya produces custom-made kitchens with facades made of painted laminates, MDF, metallic finish, or solid wood. Kitchen furniture fronts can be matte or glossy, strict rectilinear, or luxurious with smooth curves, decorated with patterns and carvings. A facade with colored patination and other decorative elements – stained glass windows, grilles – will require even more time.
Most often, the most “nimble” are kitchens with facades made of laminated chipboard. Typically, stocks of standard chipboard colors are in stock. But if you choose a custom color, you will have to wait for it to arrive.
Internal fittings
The principle is the same here: Internal fittings and a range of kitchen appliances are usually readily available. But if you dream that your kitchen will have a magic corner and high retractable column, then most likely these elements will be custom-made for you. Which, of course, will not allow you to make a kitchen in a super-short time. However, our stores maintain a fairly wide range of basic warehouse fittings – so you can still count on a relatively fast, high-quality, and highly functional kitchen.
Custom-made tabletop
Wallpaper Kenya offers custom-made kitchen tabletops. A kitchen with an Acrylic worktop will be ready the fastest – we will deliver and install it along with the furniture. But a kitchen with a granite countertop will take longer. Both acrylic and quartz countertops are made only after the kitchen cabinetry has been installed and the final measurements for the stone have been taken. After this, you need to wait about 2 more weeks for the countertop.
Advantages of a custom-made kitchen
Perfect Fit
Every inch of space in a custom-made kitchen is utilized efficiently, maximizing storage and functionality. For instance, you can decide to utilize vertical space with tall cabinets. Or install pull-out shelves for easy access, and employ corner solutions like lazy Susans. Keep countertops clear by hanging utensils and use magnetic strips for knives. Consider a kitchen island for extra prep space and storage. Choose multifunctional appliances to save room.
Unique Design
A custom kitchen is completely adapted to your lifestyle. Because when it comes to decorating, beautifying, and furnishing a house, we are very careful and think about the best solutions. It is about more than settling for a design from a big box store. Because the decisions we make will be with you for many years. But with a custom kitchen, you can study every detail so that it is perfect and provides a higher degree of functionality to your home.
Create a kitchen that reflects your style and complements your home’s architecture. Do you love nature? Then consider a kitchen mural of a forest, a beach, or a mountain landscape. Are you a city person? A mural of a cityscape or a skyline might be more your style. Or perhaps you’re a fan of vintage posters or geometric patterns. Whatever your interests are, we have a mural for you.
High-Quality Materials
Choose from a vast array of materials, finishes, and hardware to achieve your desired look.
Cabinets
At Wallpaper Kenya you can order custom-made kitchen cabinets according to size and materials. Solid wood cabinets are the most durable and high-quality option. They are also the most expensive. But veneer cabinets are a good alternative to solid wood cabinets. They are made from a thin layer of wood that is glued to a plywood core. Veneer cabinets are not as durable as solid wood cabinets, but they are more affordable.
Custom-made kitchen flooring
Tile, stone, and hardwood are all popular choices for high-quality kitchen flooring. Tile is the most durable option, and it is also easy to clean. Stone is a beautiful option, but it can be cold and hard on the feet. Hardwood is a warm and inviting option, but it can be scratched and damaged by water.
Backsplash
Glass, tile, and stone are all popular choices for high-quality kitchen backsplashes. Glass is a beautiful option, but it can be fragile. Tile is a durable and easy-to-clean option. Stone is a natural and beautiful option, but it can be expensive.
Durability
The durability of your kitchen will be determined by several factors, including the materials you choose, the quality of construction, and the level of maintenance.
Increased Home Value
Choosing a custom kitchen means being able to express your personality and satisfy your tastes and needs. But it also means making your home more beautiful, functional, and harmonious. Whether it is to decorate, embellish, and furnish a small apartment, loft, or attic, or for large houses, such a solution increases the value of the home and guarantees a longer life. A well-designed custom kitchen can significantly enhance your home’s resale value.
custom-made kitchen design styles
The customization of a kitchen interior includes several stages:
- planning,
- choosing a style,
- finding a color scheme,
- selecting a set,
- and designing a general concept.
The kitchen design combines functionality, practicality, and beauty.
Work on a custom-made kitchen begins with the location of communications, and then furniture. When arranging the set, the area and shape of the room accounted for. There are corner, straight, and parallel kitchen sets.
When choosing a set, you consider not only the shape but other characteristics as well: materials, dimensions, fittings, decorative elements, color, and texture. It is recommended to purchase furniture only after finishing work is completed. This will help to avoid possible further discrepancies in size and shape.
If you want to buy a wooden table, it is advisable to choose hardwood. To save money, combine materials: a tabletop made of natural wood, and the rest of the details – from more affordable materials.
Many people use a modern design solution – installing a bar counter. It serves as a full replacement for a dining table and saves space. In large rooms, a bar counter acts as a delimiter for zoning the area.
Unique design solutions can be implemented even in a small room. In small kitchens, adapt a window as a worktop. There are also many layout options with folding tabletops and pull-out drawers. The main goal is to save space in a small room and maximize the practicality of all kitchen elements.
Choice of style
How do you choose a kitchen design and what do you pay attention to? When choosing a style direction for the kitchen, rely not only on tastes and preferences but also take into account features such as the style of the rest of the rooms in the apartment or house, the size and shape of the kitchen, and the direction of the windows to the cardinal points.
The abundance of design solutions simply amazes in its scope. Manufacturers take into account not only general trends in the fashion industry but also demand. When choosing furniture, consider the style of the room. There are many directions:
- classical;
- neoclassicism;
- empire;
- Provence;
- high-tech;
- minimalism;
- modern;
- country;
- ethno;
- loft;
- art deco;
- eclecticism and fusion, and many others.
Classic custom-made kitchen

Provence
A custom-made Provence-style kitchen will create a comfortable romantic space for cooking delicious food and socializing. The measured village atmosphere typical of Provence and the French Riviera creates a feeling of warmth and relaxation in the home. This style has a classic basis, which makes the Provence kitchen design relevant.
Hi-tech custom-made kitchen
High-tech is an ode to technology and practicality and you can order in custom size and design. This style is characterized by a large number of household appliances, as well as metal and glass parts. The main goal of this trend is maximum practicality. Therefore, there should be nothing superfluous in a high-tech room. Each detail has its purpose. The color spectrum allows the use of contrasting shades. One of the most common combinations is white and red. When decorating the interior, it is advisable to adhere to the principle of three colors, otherwise the room will lose its harmony.
Minimalism
Minimalism is characterized by maximum simplicity and restraint. As in the previous style, no excesses or additional decorative elements are allowed here. The number of colors is limited. When choosing shades, preference is given to lighter tones. Distinctive features of minimalism are simple geometric shapes, good lighting, and glossy surfaces. This allows you to visually enlarge the room and create a feeling of lightness. The absence of small details helps to expand and free up space. The furniture set should be light and elegant so as not to clutter the area and not weigh down the atmosphere.
Modern custom-made kitchen
Another interesting and laconic style is modern. It is also characterized by the absence of decorative elements and practicality. Additional light sources are often used, even distributed throughout the room. As for the color scheme, almost any tone will suit this style: from neutral to bright saturated shades.
Country custom-made kitchen
Country style is a reflection of “old” trends. Decor elements and furniture should be made of natural materials or artificially aged. An abundance of textile, wooden, and clay details is welcomed. Curtains and tablecloths made of natural linen or cotton are perfect for a country-style kitchen. Stone or wood texture finishing is often used.
Ethnic
Ethnic style implies the presence of elements of the culture of another nation. Most often, objects associated with the countries of Africa, the East, or Scandinavia are used. All materials and decorative elements should be selected in the same style to convey the spirit of a certain country.
Loft
The loft style assumes an open layout, so it can be used exclusively for decorating large kitchens or studios with zoned spaces. The decor must necessarily include natural materials: stone, brick, and wood. The furniture set is characterized by simplicity and restraint. To create contrast, complemented by modern household equipment, glass doors or partitions, as well as glossy metal parts. The color spectrum can include gray, beige, cream, or light brown.
Art Deco custom-made kitchen
Premises decorated in Art Deco style are quite rare. As such design solutions require large investments. Expensive natural materials such as marble, onyx, and malachite are used to decorate the premises. Ivory and animal skins can be used as decoration. Color solutions allow the use of gold, purple, red, and blue shades. Art Deco is an atmosphere of luxury and prosperity.
When decorating a kitchen, you should first of all strive for practicality and functionality. The development of the kitchen design begins with the placement of communications and furniture.
