Hi guys, this is Harini Krishnamachari, my parents bought a 3bhk apartment in omr, chennai and we wanted to do the kitchen stuff & cupboards and a few interiors for which I shortlisted a few interior agencies, through web and references. then we finalised with cookscape. during this process, I had to read a lot of reviews in lot of forums, so I decided I should also write review, once my house was done.
initially when we approached lot of agencies, most of the people were very reluctant to give even the designs before paying advance, but at cookscape it was different those guys gave us the multiple design options even before we finalised. one thing is, it is very confusing initially because they give both low cost and high end options also. initially we got a feeling that it is expensive but actually it is not they have a lot of combination options also, so that we can choose what we want. they have options for all budgets, small to big. initially we were looking at all the low cost options, but when everything was concluded we went for mixed combo. especially my room has come out very well I love the wallpaper and also the wardrobe. I did it like a theme. it did take some time to finalise since I had to travel back to the us most of discussions were in facetime.
one strong statement I would like to make is, utilise their design team, coz the design is the main area to decide the budget and even decides the finish. I especially wanted to write this review mainly to appreciate and thank coordinator uma and the application engineer balaji who helped us in lot of minor changes in the last minute. if you ask me for a rating for design I will give 10/10, price part I can rate them 9/10, time line is only 7/10, over all ambiance and quality will be 10/10. all the best to young and energetic team. keep it up guys.
