BASIC KITCHEN LAYOUTS
G SHAPE:
Similar to the U Shape, but ideal for people who need extra storage since
the peninsula allows for that.
THESE ARE BASIC LAYOUTS THAT CAN BE ADAPTED TO FIT
YOUR SPACE. WHICH FLOW SHOULD YOU GO WITH?
WORK TRIANGLE
What’s your optimal layout? Is your kitchen on the way to the garage? Are
you working with plenty of space, or cramped quarters? Think about how
you use your kitchen, who’s in it, and what they’re doing—then talk it through
with a designer. Remember to pay attention to the “work triangle” to avoid
feeling scrunched in the space (the "work triangle" being the space
between sink, fridge, and range, in which most of the action in a typical
kitchen takes place).
