A: Living by Ari approaches kitchen design with the philosophy that the kitchen is the heart of the home — a space that must be as beautiful as it is functional. Ari's kitchens are characterized by bold contrasts, sleek cabinetry lines, carefully chosen countertops, and artistic finishing details that together create a space that is visually stunning and a genuine joy to cook and gather in. Every kitchen is custom-designed and managed from start to finish with full English-speaking service.

A: The process begins with an in-depth consultation — available by video call for clients abroad — to understand your cooking habits, aesthetic preferences, storage needs, and budget.

Once approved, Ari manages all vendors and contractors through to a finished result, communicating with you every step of the way in English.
