Considered kitchens,
precisely built.
We design, fabricate and install kitchens and joinery for architects, designers and developers who need the work done right.
Commons Kitchens is a leading full-service kitchen design, fabrication and installation studio based in Mount Maunganui. We handle everything from first sketch to final fit-out, making the process as enjoyable as the result.
The kitchen has always been the common ground. The place where mornings begin before anyone's ready, where conversations stretch past midnight, where the best meals happen by accident.
Commons was built on that idea. That a kitchen isn't just a room, it's the part of a home that does the most living. So we design each one from the inside out. Around how you actually cook, gather, and move through your day.
We are common by name, custom by nature. We take familiar elements, the ones that have always worked and compose them with care and intention to create something that works for you. Nothing is reinvented. Everything is considered.
Common ground, made yours.
Why Commons Kitchens?
Experience matters
Twenty years of designing and installing kitchens, in New Zealand and abroad, means we've encountered almost every challenge, constraint, and opportunity a kitchen can present. That experience informs every decision we make, from the first conversation to the final detail.
Handled in house
From design through to fabrication and installation, everything is done by our own team of specialists. No contractors, no handoffs, no gaps in communication. Just one dedicated team accountable for the project.
Bespoke by nature
No two kitchens are the same, and we don't treat them that way. Every project is designed around your space, your habits, and your taste. The result is always uniquely yours.
Simply, great kitchens
Our Process
1. Discover
Whether you're bringing drawings and a spec, or a vision for the space, we start by confirming scope, materials and cost before anything is committed.
2. Design
We develop detailed drawings, materials plan, and costs, signed off with you before fabrication starts so there are no surprises mid-build.
3. Fabricate
Built in-house on our own CNC and joinery line, to spec, with the same team accountable from first cut to final fit.
4. Install
We install to the agreed programme and coordinate directly with your site team or home owner – one point of contact throughout.
