FAQs
Explore our approach to kitchens and interiors, from design guidance and material selection to fabrication and installation.
What does Novus Interiors offer?
Novus provides interior solutions that bring together planning, material selection, precision fabrication and professional installation. Our primary focus is complete kitchen systems, supported by countertops, cabinetry, storage solutions, wardrobes, tiles, and other custom interior applications.
Can Novus design my entire kitchen, or can I purchase individual elements?
Both. Novus can deliver a complete kitchen solution or assist with selected elements such as cabinetry, countertops, storage, appliances and accessories. For complete projects, we consider the components together so that materials, finishes, proportions and functionality work as one cohesive space.
Do you work on both new builds and renovations?
Yes. We work with clients planning kitchens and interiors for new homes as well as those updating or reconfiguring existing spaces. The design process is shaped around the dimensions, requirements and intended use of each project.
What is the Novus design and installation process?
Our process is structured to provide clarity from the beginning. We start by understanding your space and requirements, then move through design, material and system specification, fabrication, installation and aftercare. Each stage builds on the one before it, helping to create a more coordinated experience from concept to completion.
Does Novus provide design guidance?
Yes. Design guidance is an integral part of the Novus experience. We help you consider layout, functionality, finishes, materials, storage and other details so that your selections work together practically as well as visually. We also work with plans and drawings prepared by your architect, translating the design intent into accurately fabricated and installed interior solutions.
Does Novus handle installation?
Yes. Professional installation forms part of our integrated approach. By coordinating design, fabrication and installation, we can maintain greater consistency throughout the project and ensure that the finished space reflects the approved design and specifications.
Are Novus kitchens custom-made or modular?
They are both custom-designed and modular in construction. Your solution is developed around your space, requirements and preferred aesthetic, while our modular approach supports flexibility, consistent quality and efficient installation.
What cabinetry styles and finishes are available?
Novus offers a range of cabinetry options to suit different design directions, including contemporary frameless configurations, smooth and textured finishes, painted finishes, handles and handle-less options. Your designer can guide you through the combinations that best suit the overall look and function of your space.
What countertop materials can I choose from?
Our countertop selection includes options such as DECORAN™ solid surface, granite, quartz and porcelain. Each material offers different characteristics in appearance, maintenance, durability and design flexibility, allowing the selection to be matched to the way your space will be used.
How do I choose the right countertop for my kitchen?
We recommend considering how you use your kitchen, the level of maintenance you are comfortable with and the overall design you want to achieve. Quartz offers a consistent engineered finish, granite provides the natural variation of stone, porcelain offers a refined contemporary option, while DECORAN™ provides a non-porous solid surface with seamless fabrication possibilities. We will guide you through the options during the specification stage.
Can Novus help with appliances, sinks, faucets and kitchen accessories?
Yes. These details can be considered alongside your cabinetry, countertop and overall kitchen layout. Taking them into account during the design process helps ensure that dimensions, clearances, storage and installation requirements are properly coordinated rather than addressed separately at the end.
Can you create storage solutions beyond standard kitchen cabinetry?
Yes. Storage is considered as part of the overall design rather than simply as additional cabinetry. Depending on the project, solutions can include pantry storage, drawer systems, wardrobe and closet systems, integrated organisers and custom built-ins designed around how you use the space.
Does Novus offer solutions beyond kitchens?
Yes. While kitchens are our flagship offering, our capabilities extend to other areas of the home through custom cabinetry, wardrobes, storage systems, vanities, wall features, tiles, countertops and built-in solutions.
Can Novus work with my architect, interior designer or developer?
Yes. Novus regularly collaborates with architects, interior designers and other design professionals to bring their concepts to life. We work from architectural plans, design drawings and specifications, providing technical expertise, material guidance and professional installation to ensure the finished product reflects the original design intent.
How much does a Novus project cost, and how long will it take?
Every project is different. Cost and programme are influenced by the size and complexity of the space, materials, finishes, cabinetry configuration, accessories and overall scope of work. Once the project has been defined and specifications confirmed, we can provide a clearer quotation and expected project timeline.
