“Everything happens in the kitchen.

Life happens in the kitchen.”

– Andrew Zimmern
WELCOME TO THE WORLD
OF DURACUCINE!

transformed over the years into a design space that is more creative and social in
nature.

delights the senses.

function that we at DuraCucine, offer you. We balance the art and science of kitchen

KITCHEN
STYLES.
Long gone are those days where kitchens
were merely a functional space. Today’s
kitchens are central to everyday living and
special occasion entertaining. Whether you
are designing your kitchen to match the
rest of your home decor or planning your
whole house around your kitchen
design, choose a style that works best for
your kitchen space while being a beautiful
reflection of you and your lifestyle.
CLASSIC KITCHENS

A Classic kitchen style is simple but timeless.

The neutral colour palettes and functional
designs ensure a look that is neither too ornate
nor too impersonal.

VINTAGE KITCHENS

A vintage kitchen has the charm of a bygone

era. With glass-front cabinets, intricate profiles,
vintage-style fixtures, and beaded-board
accents, the vintage kitchen is all about
nostalgia.
MODERN KITCHENS

A modern kitchen style is sleek and minimalist.

Clean lines, contrasting colour schemes, sleek
glossy surfaces and fluid concepts extend a
look that is modern and in vogue.

CONTEMPORARY KITCHENS

A contemporary kitchen flaunts a bold and

effortless look. Bold sophisticated hues, sleek
cabinetry, lacquered finishes and lighting
accessories create a look that is distinct and
transcends trends.
PLAN
YOUR
KITCHEN.
Planning your perfect kitchen is an
important first step to building a kitchen
that is beautiful, functional and efficient.

An Indian kitchen hosts complex tasks like

cutting, chopping, cooking, cleaning, eating,
entertaining. Therefore it needs to work
hard and look good. A thoughfully planned
kitchen allows you a space where you can
enjoy being in while you dish out your best
meals.

Whether your kitchen is small or expansive,

our kitchen experts will help you with a
design that best suits your requirement and
helps you get the most out of the space.
 FAMILY SIZE AND LIFESTYLE

Family size and lifestyle are two important factors that

influence the design of your kitchen. A Straight-line
STEP kitchen is ideal for a small family of two while L-shaped
and U-shaped kitchens are perfect for large families.

01 A Parallel kitchen allows a single person to work and

move freely inside the kitchen, while an Island kitchen
is a beautiful lifestyle statement.

tasks like chopping, mixing, cooking, cleaning and
entertaining. Kitchen drawers, pull-outs, doors and
cabinets are opened multiple times in a day. That’s
why it is very important to have a well designed modular
kitchen. With our expert know-how and technologically
advanced solutions, we at Duracucine help you design a
kitchen that is functional, comfortable and efficient.

BUDGET

Designing a kitchen that fits your requirements within your

budget demands an expert hand. Our in-house kitchen
experts and our easy finance schemes help you get a
kitchen befitting your home without any compromise.
STEP

02
SELECT
YOUR KITCHEN LAYOUT.

Like all workspaces modular kitchens require an

optimum layout to help you go around your kitchen
chores easily. This makes kitchen layouts your
starting point and an important factor in influencing
the efficiency of your kitchen.

At DuraCucine our kitchen experts believe that a

combination of 5-Zone and 3-C principles make every
kitchen layout efficient and ergonomic.
1. Food Preparation

2. Cooking

3. Food Storage

4. Cleaning and Waste

5. Pots and Pans

On an average, a person walks around the kitchen space more than

30 times a day. Drawers, pull-outs and cabinets are opened and closed
more than 20 times a day. More than 50 activities, such as chopping,
slicing, marinating, cooking, buttering bread etc. are carried out in
your kitchen every day.

An “Intelligent or Dynamic” kitchen designed with the 5-Z principle

enhances the working and storage efficiency of your kitchen.
THE 3-C PRINCIPLE

The kitchen work triangle (3-C principle) is a concept used to determine efficient kitchen layouts that are both
aesthetically pleasing and functional.

The primary tasks in a home kitchen are carried out between the cook top, the sink and the refrigerator. When
these three elements are close (but not too close) to one other, the kitchen will be easy and efficient to use,
cutting down on wasted steps.
 STRAIGHT KITCHEN
STRAIGHT KITCHENS

A straight kitchens have all the work sections along one

wall and are ideal for compact spaces. This layout
provides storage cabinets on the top and drawers at the
bottom for food staples, spice boxes, cooking pans, thalis
creating a clean aesthetic.
C-SHAPE KITCHEN

C-SHAPE KITCHENS

C-shape kitchens are highly sought after in Indian homes

because they offer ample space for cabinetry. This kitchen
layout is made up along three adjacent walls that are fitted
with a countertop, cabinetry and appliances, all joined to
resemble the C-shape.
 L-SHAPE KITCHEN

L-SHAPE KITCHENS

L-Shape kitchens are suited to both small and medium

spaces. Worktops and cabinets are perfectly positioned to
suit the user and facilitate ease the movement between
tasks. L-Shaped kitchens are perfect for Indian homes
where storage requirement is maximum and multiple
people work simultaneously in the kitchen.
PARALLEL KITCHEN

PARALLEL KITCHENS

Parallel kitchens have two platforms along with cabinets

that run parallel to one another. This kitchen provides for
separate cooking, preparation and staging area along with
ample storage. This layout is ideal for Indian kitchens
where multiple activities run parallel.
 ISLAND KITCHEN

ISLAND KITCHENS

Island kitchens maximise storage and accommodate

multiple functions. The island houses the sink, and is good
not just for prepping, chopping and washing, but also
offers seating for quick casual meals.
STEP

03
CHOOSE
YOUR CABINETS.

Indian kitchens present unique challenges when it comes to cabinets because of the elaborate cooking techniques and
variety of ingredients used. Also, Indian homes like to stock up dry groceries and spices in bulk and our kitchens need to
provide for the same.

At DuraCucine we customize cabinetry to ensure optimal storage for the heavy duty metal pots, large storage containers
cutlery and various kitchen accessories.

A. CHOOSE BY CABINET TYPE.

Indian kitchens are all about storage. Hence a combination of base, wall, tall and loft cabinets is ideal to ensure
there’s a place for everything and everything is in place.

A tall unit for the cereals and pulses, base units for the heavy metal pots and utensils, pull-out units for the everyday
ingredients, wall units for dry groceries and loft units for things you don’t use everyday, but still like to keep handy.
TALL UNITS BASE UNITS WALL UNITS LOFT UNITS
 B. CHOOSE BY CABINET MATERIAL.

Indian kitchens counter the everyday challenges of intense heat, greese, oil

one can find a place for everything.

STORAGE ORGANIZERS

A well planned kitchen storage with a combination of cabinet types

and organisers help to keep everything you want in your kitchen
handy.

Given the amount of cutting, chopping, prepping, frying, stains, spills and burns that comes with Indian
cooking, it is important to choose a countertop that is strong, durable and low on maintenance. Choose a
counter top that takes the load, is good to look at and flaunts some attitude through texture and colour.

LIGHTING

While natural lighting is the best, a combination of ambient and task lighting ensures a kitchen is
well lit. Opt for multiple lighting sources to prevent dark corners. It is recommended to have LED
strips under the overhead cabinets, focused on the hob and countertop especially for cooking at
night. All said, a good lighting adds to the charm of the kitchen.

alongside exposure to heat and moisture which is
an everyday affair. It is therefore important to select

KITCHEN IN 3D VIEW
Once you have all the important aspects of the kitchen in
place, it’s a good time to see the kitchen in 3 dimensional view.
It helps to visualize the kitchen better and make changes and
see the results in a much more real way.

On a 3D design, you can:

• Change finishes and choice of cabinets.

• Change colours.

• Change the intensity of lighting.

• Add utilities & appliances

• Zoom in/out and pan left/right to get a complete 360 view

of the kitchen.

hob. Indian way of cooking makes it necessary for every
Indian household to have a good chimney that keeps the
kitchen free from strong odours, smoke and soot.

Cook Tops and Hobs have replaced the traditional gas

stoves in most Indian homes. It is important to select a cook
top or hob that is easy to clean, prevents water seapage,
ensures even flame distribution and takes the weight of the
heavy duty Indian pots and pans.
