The most sustainable choice you can make is to keep your kitchen and upcycle it! We have gathered 4 tips for ways you can give your home a kitchen renewal with a fresh new look to make it last a few more years.
1. Change the details
Explore the details of your kitchen to see what small changes you can make towards your kitchen renewal. Changing handles from brass to cast iron or maybe switching out the colour of the moulding between the drawers can make a big difference, Then add accessories to underline the new style or colour you have added.
KVIK TIP
We have extended our assortment of handles and our handle free kitchens have details you can exchange easily and quickly for a whole new look.
2. Change just the fronts
Look into whether you can keep your cupboards and just exchange the fronts. Take some pictures and measurements and drop by for a conversation with your local kitchen expert to find out. If you already have a Kvik kitchen, it should be possible to make the change.
KVIK TIP
If you want to upgrade on the inside try out our inside drawers for more storage or add some clever pull-out shelves for corner cabinets.

The worktop and your sink are the icing on the cake, plus they're the parts of the of the kitchen that get the most use. If you replace your worktop, the kitchen will have a fresh new look.
