A product of modern interior design and science, modular kitchens are pre-assembled kitchens that come in different components and can be easily configured to meet your space and style needs. These kitchens are a great option since modular kitchens can be customised to your specific needs - style, space and budget. They are versatile and can be dismantled and moved. Factory-made, they are made with the best quality materials, finishes and hardware using the latest high-end technology while meeting quality standards. These kitchens are a combination of different units - kitchen drawers, cabinets, and shelves that are arranged compactly, to save space, while optimising functionality.

"Maximum convenience for the homemaker at her work is the aim of this step-saving kitchen, planned primarily for the farm home. It was designed in housing and household equipment laboratories of the Bureau of Human Nutrition and Home Economics.
The U as shown here, while compact, is large enough for two women to work with plenty of space. There is also ample storage to accompany the activities usually carried on in a farm kitchen when there is a separate laundry and workroom.
Smooth production line. This kitchen is planned to cut walking, stooping, and stretching to a minimum in accordance with modern work simplification ideas. It is planned so that jobs can progress in orderly fashion from one work center to the next. The production line is from right to left, since most right-handed women prefer this."
"Pictured here is the energy-saving kitchen-workroom designed by housing specialists of the U. S. Department of Agriculture especially for the many homemakers who must conserve energy because of chronic illness or age. Developed in USDA' s Home Economics laboratories at Beltsville, Md., it is the first in a series of kitchen designs based on research into energy costs and space needs for performing various household tasks."
