About us – Kitchen & Room

Storytelling by design

We are architects with the tools to quickly outline a project, whether it is a kitchen, an apartment, a house or a piece of furniture. But we want to take it further; to reflect you and your personality. After all, it is your home. So who are you?

Versatile. Particular. Design freak.

Or perhaps all the above? No one is alike. We all have our own style. Everybody needs to feel at home somewhere. It is not always an easy search. We may help solving the puzzle. We’ll help you creating your rooms.

Timeless principles

Our carpenters are part of the creative process. Their knowledge of the craft is invaluable. By focusing on high quality on everything from raw material until the product is in your hands, we learn and improve every day.

Behind the scenes

Kitchen & Room is created by architect Erik Kolman Janouch and Maria Cappelen. We design and produce bespoke furniture, kitchens, doors, windows, stairways and more. We strive to create sustainable products and to take care of our environment in all steps of our production. Our typical customer is one who wants something more than off-the-shelf products.

Clever solutions

Narrow spaces, sloped ceilings, impossible corners, lack of storage – problems like these may seem insolvable. But we provide solutions.

Pricing

It would have been more practical for all of us if we were able to show you our prices, or even better, that you could click your way to a price right here on the website. Some companies do that. But we can’t, simply because everything is custom made to fit you, your home and taste.

Exciting project on the Vega islands

Residence magazine went to a cottage in Vega, Norway, where KolmanBoye Architects designed; Monokon AB built, and our carpentry did all the interior details. More in Residence.

The process

To design new spaces or furniture together with an architect may take a little time. But it is fun! We involve the customer in everything from measuring to designing.
