The kitchen holds a special place at home that encourages togetherness among families and friends over foods and conversations. Hence, wanting kitchen renovations to keep up with your needs and standards is quite reasonable.
Others may think that kitchen remodeling is expensive, but the truth is, there are certain ways to do without spending a lot. When done right, you can achieve both beauty and functionality with simple changes such as incorporating new pieces, reconstructing, and even cleaning and decluttering. Ultimately, you will be surprised at how these little efforts make big transformations in your cooking space. At Rock Robins Design Studio, the services we provide ensure to bring both aesthetic and functionality to lighten up your space.
Listed below are some kitchen renovation tricks and ideas that will help you achieve your kitchen goals.
In general, the kitchen area is used frequently. Having damaged cupboards, stained tiles, and tarnished equipment are not uncommon. While it is easy to opt for a whole space renovation with your interior designer, check first if you can perform the repair yourself. Fix your cracked cupboards with undercoating and mend your dented tiles. This can make a huge difference to your kitchen’s overall appearance.
Having a clutter-free kitchen is a challenge. Either big or small kitchen can be struggling with all the utensils, appliances, condiments, and many cooking stuffs lying around. You can start with getting rid of unnecessary items and reorganizing things. Place the items you often use in an accessible area. Since countertops are prone to clutter, make sure to keep your items from piling up there.
Painting your kitchen walls can restore its much-needed radiance. With the right color scheme, you can give your kitchen a new, refreshing look without spending too much. You can consider the colors white, neutrals, shades of green, or pastel blue, resembling some popular interior design styles in Manila. Ensure to perform the required preparations before repainting to achieve the proper texture you desire.
Cabinets promote strategic style and storage in the kitchen. You may want to do a cabinet make-over not only to improve their beauty but also to create effective storage. If your cabinets are still in good shape, it is practical to repaint them and perform basic repairs if needed, rather than installing new ones. You can also save space in your kitchen if you’ll add floating shelves to the kitchen walls. You may create one, or buy easy to install shelves in the market. Floating shelves are stylish and functional in kitchen areas.
Introduce proper lighting in your kitchen, it is another way to change its ambiance and comfort. You can add some accent lights to make it more charming. Or, create a stunning balance between natural and artificial light. Replace your bulbs with brighter ones and allow more natural light to come in.
The kitchen can be one of the busiest places at home, understandably, you want it durable, stain-free, and beautiful. Ceramic tiles are commonly seen on kitchen floors because they are affordable, tough, and easy to clean. Other types of flooring you may want to consider are hardwood, laminate, vinyl, and concrete.
Aside from taking part in your kitchen design, appliances also help save time and boost convenience and functionality in your cooking space. Make sure to invest in quality appliances and apparatus and don’t settle for less. Correspondingly, countertops are one of the focal points in the kitchen space. Choose to have sturdy materials when renovating them such as granite, quartz, or marble.
Every room at home is important, but the kitchen is the heart of it. Busy kitchens are prone to wears and tears. While kitchen renovations can be challenging, it is a great way to give your house its much-needed transformation.

We love Rocky!!! He has the best designs and he gets what you want. His designs are so beautiful. It looks like what you will see in Architectural Digest but the house feels homey and warm. He took care of everything , from the foot print of the rooms, the wall finishes, the built ins, the furnitures , the lighting. He even took care of the styling. It's better than what you will ever watch on any design show. You walk into your house and your jaw would drop at the beauty of your house. His team even fixed all the furnitures and beddings and it's so move in ready that you just literally bring in your personal stuff. He and his staff were very responsive. They went over and beyond so many countless times. He was not only a designer but also a crisis manager. He helped us with our sub contractors. If we were to build another house , we would definitely work with him. We highly recommend him. Indeed one of the Philippines best sought after designer. After working with him , we know why 😍 Thanks so very much Rocky.
Rock and his team were fantastic and kept the design and renovation process stress and headache free. Impeccable translation of design from print to reality and amazing attention to detail. I highly, highly recommend Rock to anyone looking for end to end services from design all the way thru the actual renovation. Claps! :)
Having had a few projects with Rock Robins, I can absolutely testify that he is a highly-professional interior designer, who means what he says and does it. One particular project, we had the challenge of lockdowns and pandemic restrictions. Rock led the project, his team, and the suppliers so well beyond my expectations. Rock exudes professionalism with a heart. I felt that he cares for the project and for me, the client. He listens and accommodates the design of the project based on how it will be used and if it reflects the owners' lifestyle and taste. To say that it is a joy to work with Rock is an understatement. I look forward to the time I can work with Rock again.
We hired Rock Robins and his team for interior design and renovation of our condo unit. The designs were excellent, they listened to and incorporated all our ideas and also made design suggestions along the way. If you want a stress free renovation process then this is the way to go, everything was made very easy! When the renovation was finished it looked almost identical to the final designs
I would highly recommend Rock and his team to anyone wanting interior design services all the way through to renovation, they are a pleasure to work with and the final results are excellent! :)
Rocky did such an excellent job on our condo that it was even featured in a popular magazine! The space he created for us is beautiful, tasteful and inviting. We were so happy with his work that he is doing another project for us! We highly recommend Rocky Robins Studio.
All the characteristics you wish for in a great design team are with Rock Robins design studio. I had the most incredible experience working with Rocky and his team on multiple projects for several years. The team is very professional, attentive to client interests, works within client budgets and is deeply committed to completing projects on time. Definitely would recommend them to anyone seeking a top notch design firm that could make their dream home come true.
Rocky picked up my project which had been abandoned by the previous designer during coronavirus leaving me in a precarious position. Designers generally don’t like to take over mid-project as there are added complications but Rocky made the effort to completely understand both the issues and what I wanted from the design and elevated it to something beyond my expectations.
Working with Rock was an absolute joy as his cheery personality brought more excitement and creativity in revamping our daughter's room. We love the playful color scheme and the clever storage solutions.
