STANDARDIZED MODULAR INTEGRATED UNBRANDED STUNNING

PROFIT X DESIGN IS A UNIQUE, DYNAMIC, AND ULTRA-EFFICIENT MODULAR SYSTEM. IT’S A WAY TO FURNISH PURPOSE-BUILT RENTALS WITH BEAUTIFUL, DURABLE, EUROPEAN MADE KITCHENS – AT AN AFFORDABLE PRICE. IN AN INCREASINGLY COMPETITIVE MARKET, IT WILL ENABLE DEVELOPERS TO PROFIT X DESIGN.

AN INVITATION TO PROFIT X DESIGN

Here’s what we know:

• Every exceptional dwelling pulses with life from its core – the kitchen, the vibrant heart of the home. It’s the ultimate differentiator. That’s why Informprojects has thrived for more than two fabulous decades; we put beautiful kitchens in the best homes, tens of thousands of times.

• The market has changed. A broad shift to purposebuilt rental has triggered a new demand, and a new opportunity! Market residential has shifted, as well, into a constrained space with higher interest rates, and tighter margins.

• The budgets may be under greater pressure, but the demand is the same. Renters and buyers alike still want great kitchens – and they will pay a premium if you can give them what they want.

With that in mind, team leaders at Informprojects did the math. We knew that if we wanted to continue setting an industry standard in the design and construction of exemplary kitchens, baths, and closet systems, we had to find a way to do it at a price that makes sense in this freshly constrained market.

Profit x Design is the result. Our new model is innovative and unique, a comprehensive development process in which the PXD team: assists in suite design; sources, imports, and delivers all components; takes full responsibility for installation; and wraps everything in a gold-standard warranty.

Profit x Design isn’t just about kitchens; it’s about crafting the heartbeat of homes, making elegant design accessible in everyday living spaces. Even more, it’s about creating a competitive advantage for savvy developers. It’s about making sure our partners Profit x Design.

THE DEVELOPER’S CHALLENGE; THE PXD PROMISE

It has to be beautiful – in a fiercely competitive market, renters are only going to pay a new-build premium if the product is clearly superior.

It has to be tough – it’s not just that people appreciate quality: failure is expensive. A cheaper component is no bargain if you have to fix it all the time. And still...

It has to be affordable – after you design it, find it, buy it, ship it, install it, and pay for it at every step, you still have to deliver at a price the market can bear.

MODERN RELIABLE ROBUST SUPERIOR SERVICE

We make beautiful things – Informprojects is the go-to supplier for kitchens and bathrooms in some of the most prestigious addresses in North America.

Our suppliers compete in the toughest markets in the world – our European partners bring both design elegance and unparalleled manufacturing excellence. The product stands up, in every way.

Process, experience, vigilance, and buying power –Profit x Design has a unique offering and a distinct advantage. We can meet the challenge.

EUROPEAN BUILT ELEGANT HIGH-QUALITY INNOVATIVE CONSISTENT

EUROPEAN FINESSE INDUSTRIAL MIGHT

European furniture and cabinet makers have a centuries-old reputation for elegant, ultra-high quality cabinetry. Capitalizing on everything from Italian finesse to German precision, they thrive on design excellence, innovation, and the technological chops it takes to compete in an exacting market.

In two decades, while building 27,000 kitchens and 39,000 bathrooms in Vancouver, Seattle, Calgary and Toronto, Informprojects has linked with a top tier of European family firms that build strong, beautiful things – consistently, reliably, and competitively.

Profit x Design brings those connections, and a streamlined, seamless and proven process. Tapping into our partners’ deep industrial capacity and leveraging the trust and high regard that we have earned through two decades of mutually profitable relationship building, we can now bring you the beauty, elegance, and functionality of European design without the cost premium.

THE PROFIT X DESIGN MODEL

Every Profit x Design kitchen is built from an 11-piece modular system – from a curated gallery of four finish options in wood and stone. Elegantly designed, finely engineered and infinitely interchangeable, those modules fit perfectly in every layout. This standardization makes it possible to supply a bespoke product at a cost-competitive price. We add guaranteed on-time delivery, a comprehensive installation package and an industry-leading warranty. These features, services, and assurances combine to deliver unparalleled quality and unwavering security at every point in the process.

11-Piece Modular System

Profit x Design cabinets are also manufactured to solid completion and shipped whole, not flat-packed for variable, on-site assembly with flimsy connectors. The process all works together to uphold the Profit x Design promise, guaranteeing a beautiful, strong, and lasting product.

PROFIT X DESIGN MATERIAL OPTIONS

ENGINEERED FOR ELEGANCE

Although capable of accommodating a range of appliance options, Profit x Design can also extend its preferred-client status with Bosch, the kind of prestigious, reliable, and elegant European marque you expect in higher-end condos. This is partly a question of value and volume: Profit x Design can guarantee Bosch significant, no-risk sales, in return for which Bosch is committed to delivering a level of beauty, performance and durability that the company will guarantee – even under what may be the most vigorous use.

PROCUREMENT

With Profit x Design, your first payment is due the day we deliver our first kitchens. No retainers, no contingencies: you pay only for what you get, when you get it. This is possible because of the generation of trust and experience that the Informprojects / PXD family has built up with a group of European dynasties that have revolutionized the kitchen business. PXD guarantees those businesses volume. We guarantee payment, advancing funds to procure materials. We hedge currency to defend against price fluctuations, and we pay at the factory gate. It’s the best deal that manufacturers can imagine. PXD just demands the same in reverse – their absolute best price. Then, we pass that saving to you.

SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT

Kiss the crunch goodbye. No Profit x Design developer will ever wait for a delivery stalled at some distant port.

So we can guarantee the flow of the product you need in the moment you need it.

INSTALLATION

Kitchens and bathrooms are tough. They might be the most complicated pinch point in construction management – unless you choose Profit x Design. We don’t hire subcontractors. Our in-house installers are an integral part of the PXD team – dedicated and tested. Our specialists are all tops in their fields. We take full responsibility, regularly completing installations in two days that other suppliers struggle to complete in five.

SUSTAINABILITY

Luxury is not at odds with eco-consciousness: quality endures. Thanks to the excellence and precision of European design and engineering, the Profit x Design process consumes less at the manufacturing stage. Our 11-piece modular system also ensures that everything fits – the first time, every time. No waste. Robust, well-designed kitchens last longer. They are – literally – sustainable. Everybody wins.

GUARANTEED

Profit x Design has absolute confidence in its design prowess, its production-side partners, its logistical capacity, and its in-house installation teams. All Profit x Design projects will be guaranteed for five years, with a subscription option for comprehensive ongoing protection.

Profit x Design also has the rare capacity to offer a performance bond on major projects – to guarantee, absolutely, that if anything prevents a successful and timely completion, you can recover the value of the bond.

PROFITING X DESIGN

We make the exquisite accessible – and what is accessible becomes profitable. PXD is not looking for customers, we are looking for partners who can Profit x Design.

WELCOME TO THE CREATIVE CENTRE

WELCOME TO PROFIT X DESIGN

This award-winning building is the new home – the literal creative centre – of the Profit x Design family, including Informprojects. This is where you can see the 7,500-square-foot showroom with a full range of Profit x Design kitchens, bathrooms, and closet systems. It’s steps away from our design studio and administrative office and upstairs from inspirational kitchen-design leaders Bulthaup and Cesar.

It’s important to understand the solid base on which Profit x Design rests. Just over two decades ago, the original PXD team launched Informprojects with

a passion for balancing art and commerce and a commitment to create the most beautiful kitchens for the region’s most prestigious new addresses. In one of the hottest and most creative real estate markets on the continent, Informprojects has since supplied 21,000 kitchens and 39,000 bathrooms in 190 towers.

Now it’s time to change it up. Now it’s time to share the art/commerce philosophy more broadly, to leverage our expertise and experience to make what is beautiful accessible to a much wider market. Now it’s time for Profit x Design.
