Great Contemporary Kitchen Design


After CNY reunion dinner, I sat down and was trying to Google search for some ideas for home kitchen cabinet design. There are many photos around, and most of the time it is Modern and Contemporary design. I felt the photo attached above is superb! You have the wood grain design, which gives you a traditional ambience, coupled with the modern counter top, accessories and appliances, the whole kitchen design is just amazing! Personally, I also like the 3D rock feature on the island's body. But perhaps I wouldn't have put a plant in the kitchen to save some space. :) It's a good Contemporary design. 

For people like me who had zero knowledge on custom made furniture nor furniture designing, I have to start learning from my bf. From what are the types of wood used in customizing furniture, to what is the difference between granite, marble and solid surface. The next important thing that I should pick it up from my bf is giving a quotation. I felt I might have missed many opportunities as I could not give a rough quotation fast enough. 

Gone are the days where I can just relax and play games on my hp if I'm free. Since I have started to embark on this journey, everyday after working hours in my organization, I'm still working - on the website. I try to check forum lowyat whether anybody is looking for a reliable carpenter in Klang Valley, or there is an unanswered question regarding custom made furniture. Trying to provide some useful furniture tips to potential customers, and hope that they will contact me for business :)

Recently I have gotten a call from a homeowner, who is currently constructing his own bungalow in Bandar Kinrara. He seemed to have gone through my website quite thoroughly. A few questions that he have asked and I think some of you might want to know too:
  • LKY Renovation is not an agent (perhaps I am? haha). LKY Renovation has its own manufacturing plant and the custom made furniture are all direct from factory to your house. As such, LKY Renovation does not have a showroom and we believe our past projects are our selling point. :)
  • More than 90% of the skilled and professional carpenters are Chinese. I'm not being racial discrimination here, but just want to assure you that we do not simply employ foreign labour to take over the job. This is because we want to give the best workmanship to our customers. 
  • We have done many projects, including bungalows, condominium/apartments, property showrooms, hotels, hospitals, shop outlets, etc. 
Since we have done many turnkey projects, we have contacts to many other contractors, such as a general contractor, electrician, plumber, etc., that we have worked with them before and we know they are reliable and provide good service. Therefore, if you need other renovation services such as changing tiles, hacking walls, installing plaster ceilings, etc., we can also assist you in getting our partners to work it out for you.

Signing off for now. Though it should be CNY holiday and already 收工, I will never stop working on the website as this is the time that I can focus. Wishing everyone a very happy new year and a prosperous year ahead!
