the process begins with a conversation. we establish the location of the project, the stage of the build or renovation, the client’s requirements, the design direction and whether an architect or interior designer is involved.

client outcome: a clear starting point for the project.

clients are invited to the nuuma showroom in bryanston, johannesburg, where they can experience the n10, n30, n50 and n90 ranges, material palettes, cabinetry details, wardrobes and components in a fully realised environment.

client outcome: a better understanding of the nuuma language, ranges and material possibilities.

we define how the kitchen needs to function within the home. this includes lifestyle, storage, appliance requirements, cooking habits, entertaining needs, architectural context and the desired atmosphere of the space.

client outcome: a refined brief that guides the design direction.

the kitchen layout is developed in relation to the architecture of the home. we consider circulation, working zones, island proportions, storage, connection to dining and living areas, and the overall rhythm of the space.

client outcome: a considered kitchen layout that supports both function and feeling.

the appropriate nuuma range is selected or adapted. materials, finishes, tones, countertops, cabinetry details and feature elements are explored to create a kitchen that feels personal while remaining aligned with the nuuma design language.

client outcome: a clear material and range direction.

the design is developed in greater detail through drawings and visualisations. this allows the client and professional team to understand the proportions, materials, layout and spatial experience before the project moves into technical resolution.

client outcome: a resolved design direction before manufacturing begins.

every cabinet, junction, appliance integration, drawer system, countertop detail and interface with the building is technically developed. this stage ensures that the design can be manufactured, installed and used with confidence.

client outcome: a technically resolved kitchen ready for production.

nuuma is supported by ordegroup’s design and manufacturing expertise. this allows the approved design to move into production with an understanding of material performance, detailing, quality and project delivery.

client outcome: a kitchen manufactured with precision and consistency.

installation is coordinated with the project programme and site conditions. the nuuma team works to ensure that the completed kitchen is installed in line with the design intent and the technical requirements of the space.

client outcome: a completed kitchen installed with care.

once installed, the kitchen is reviewed and handed over to the client. care, maintenance and aftercare guidance are provided so that the kitchen continues to perform and age with the same quiet confidence with which it was designed.

client outcome: a refined kitchen ready for daily living.
