TL;DR: What to Expect
Entry-level Binova configurations (smaller kitchens, fewer custom elements) start around $50,000–$80,000. Mid-range commissions — the majority of Binova Studio Short Hills projects — fall between $80,000 and $160,000. Full architectural commissions with premium materials, integrated appliances, and island run $160,000 to $300,000 and above.
Why Italian Kitchens Cost More Than American Cabinets
Italian kitchen cabinetry — particularly Binova — is made-to-order in Italy with no standard dimensions. Every component is precision-milled to your architectural plan. The lacquer finishes are applied by hand and oven-cured. The hardware (typically Blum or Grass) is European specification. The box construction uses solid HDF or plywood cores — not particleboard. None of this is available at a home improvement store.
What's Included in the Price
A Binova kitchen from Binova Studio Short Hills includes: private design consultation and 3D planning, all cabinetry and storage systems, hardware and internal fittings, shipping from Abruzzo, Italy, and white-glove delivery and installation in your New Jersey home. Countertops, appliances, and trade labor for plumbing/electrical are typically scoped separately.
Cost Per Linear Foot
As a rough guide, fully installed Binova kitchens typically run $1,800 to $4,500+ per linear foot of cabinetry depending on configuration and material selections. A 20-foot kitchen would therefore fall between $36,000 and $90,000 for cabinetry alone. Islands and pantry towers add accordingly.
