The concept
Why Firmax?
Waarom IKEA Metod?
IKEA on the inside. Firmax on the outside.
Metod offers a reliable and affordable base. Its many accessories create an organised kitchen. Firmax adds materials, colour and architectural choices where the standard range often remains uniform.
Clients look for better finishes, richer colours and a kitchen that connects with the floor, light and architecture. That is why we prefer to discuss the project as a whole and work with a clear quotation.
The cabinets and internal drawers offer an excellent balance between price and quality. The wide range of accessories makes it practical and easy to organise the inside.
Smart base
More character
Six decisions that shape the kitchen together
Work in the IKEA Kitchen Planner or share your architect's plan. Firmax will convert it into a feasible Metod configuration.
Instead of choosing from fixed models, build a coherent plan step by step that works for the space and everyday life.
Explore an overhang, a breakfast or aperitif seating area, or add an open cabinet for more airiness.
Combine one or two colours or materials. This creates depth and a recognisable whole.
1. Plan in the space
Making Choices
2. Give the island attention
3. Choose fronts
Fenix is cost-effective, stainless steel develops its patina and ceramic offers a strong, refined surface.
Handles may seem like a detail, but they influence rhythm, comfort and the appearance of the entire kitchen.
4. Determine the worktop
Choose appliances, sink and tap. A hob with integrated extraction increasingly replaces the classic extractor hood.
5. Select equipment
6. Finish with handles
Fronts that add colour and tactility
The choice of surface determines how the kitchen feels, how it reacts to light and how expressive the final image becomes.
Focus on material
Ultramat surface
Wide colour collection
Pleasant and warm feel
Resistant to fingerprints
Fenix
Ultramat, warm and strong for everyday use.
Our favourite material for Metod fronts. It feels soft, reduces fingerprints and is easy to maintain. Request a colour sample and test the surface yourself.
Softtones
Soft colours for a more accessible budget.
A calm collection with beige, yellow, grey, antique pink and olive green. Ideal when price matters without sacrificing character.
FAVOURABLE BUDGET
Calm colours
Warm overall look
Easy to combine
Unicolours
Expressive colours with a distinctive character.
From bright green and blue to golden yellow, terracotta and purple tones. For those who consciously want to use colour as part of the interior.
Expressive colours
Strong accents
Personal combinations
Graphic appearance
FINEEr
REAL WOOD. WARM, NATURAL AND FINISHED.
REAL OAK OR WALNUT
A/A QUALITY WITHOUT KNOTS
HAND-SELECTED
MATT VARNISHED & PROTECTED
Oak or walnut, built from real wood on a strong MDF core. The veneer sheets are selected and arranged by hand, giving each front its own natural pattern. A matt varnish protects the wood from grease stains and UV discolouration.
More than extra worktop space
When the space allows for an island, we look at how it can genuinely contribute to everyday use and the atmosphere of the home.
MATT VARNISHED & PROTECTED
For a lighter volume and a comfortable seating place.
Overhang
For breakfast, homework or an aperitif with guests.
Stools
For cookbooks, ceramics or objects worth displaying.
Open cabinet
Product highlight
Open cabinets bring rhythm and air.
We often add them between tall cabinets, above or below the worktop, or in a corner. They break up closed volumes and make room for books, ceramics and art.
€ 2.500 – € 5.000
€ 15.000 – € 18.000
For a new look for an IKEA Metod kitchen with a choice of materials, colours and matching visible panels.

What does a Firmax kitchen cost?
Many projects start with an IKEA plan and an initial budget estimate. Firmax adds better materials, more colour, refined details and guidance while keeping the smart logic of fixed modules.

Clearly priced, without artificial discounts or temporary promotions.

We start from proven systems and fixed modules. This means the budget does not go into repeatedly developing the same cabinet constructions, but into what is visible and tangible: materials, appearance and quality of use.
