The kitchen has traditionally been described as the heart of the home, so the Christchurch branch of Moda Kitchens is transforming this all-important space into a personalised haven, designed to meet the specific needs of your renovation or new build project. During the past 14 years, Moda Kitchens has built more than 7,000 kitchens nationwide and, with a unique offering of three pricing systems, the company can meet your needs no matter what the budget, manager proprietor Roger Syme explains. “Our top of the range kitchens are our ‘custom’ range, for discerning clients who really know what they want - this offers a full design consultation process. That’s followed by the ‘smart’ range, which is still a custom solution but offers a great value solution. Then we have our ‘modular’ range, which is a value flat pack option and is great for local builders and building firms. “The kitchen is the busiest part of the home,” Roger says. “But for many people this space simply isn’t performing for them.” Whether you’re building or renovating, Moda Kitchens has the ability to design your kitchen around your needs. Highly experienced kitchen design professionals can
design your kitchen to meet your lifestyle, rather than fitting your lifestyle around your existing kitchen. With the full manufacturing facility onsite at the showroom at 9 Klondyke Drive in Hornby, and a full manufacturing facility in Auckland meeting the needs of the North Island, Moda Kitchens is a great option for nationwide building firms looking for a New Zealand kitchen supplier that offers a full design, manufacturing and installation package with a competitive price that is prepared to talk to customers directly about their kitchen options. “Having a locally based showroom is a big advantage,” Roger says. “We cover everything from design and manufacture through to installation from the one location – with designers who can consult with the client, a showroom to demonstrate what they’re getting and the manufacturing plant to give them what they want and expect.” Sophisticated technology offering a seamless process from design to manufacture ensures delivery time is kept to a minimum – generally between three to four weeks from order. “Our design software goes from design to manufacture, without the need to change software. It’s a seamless process that involves pushing a button and the design goes through to the plant for manufacture using semiautomated CNC technology,” Roger says. “We don’t do things by hand.” Moda Kitchens not only provides kitchens, but has the capability to offer laundries, wardrobes and even does some vanities. “As a joinery manufacturer we have the capabilities to produce almost any item,” Roger says.

“We also do renovations and carry out just as many kitchen renovations as we do new builds, with a free client consultation as part of the service.” For many years, solid surface bench tops were a luxury item few could take advantage of. Acrylic resins act as a reinforcing agent, adding extra strength while creating a non-porous surface that can be repaired if scratched or chipped, offering the ideal upgrade. Solid surface bench tops are now one of the key aspects to Moda Kitchens’ offerings. “One of our most competitive features is that we import our own solid surface bench tops and can offer an upgrade from Formica at an extremely competitive price.” The most classic colour scheme of all time – black and white – is increasingly popular at the moment and works well for both traditional and modern style kitchens. It’s a colour combo which, unlike its colourful predecessors, never goes out of style. “People are generally going for a clean, crisp white look, or mixing it up with the combination of white and black. We’re predominantly seeing the white bench tops against light cabinetry, or dark cabinetry contrasted against the white bench tops,” Roger says. “Another key trend coming through from Europe is thinner bench tops and people are starting to look for bench tops with a 20-30mm thickness now. They’re looking for the clean minimalistic look with strong continuous lines and that’s also coming through in the popularity of handle-less options in the cabinetry.” By continuing to innovate, source new products to cut out the middle men, Moda Kitchens can continue to offer value for money with the best product at the best possible price.
