Create an environmentally friendly work area, regardless of whether your kitchen only has room for a single row of items or island unit and dining table.
What to think about before planning the format:
* One of the necessary functions is to create circulation between the three main areas of stove, sink and refrigerator – sometimes called the “work triangle.”
* The goal is to limit the area between the three parts for efficiency – to walk on all three sides of the triangle should be a distance of no more than 7m.
* Plan all the way down to the last element and “shop it where you use it” when it comes to the inside of objects, which is similar to having pots stored after the oven.
Open plan format
Here are methods to get the right format in an open-plan kitchen:
Primary format …
Match the items in an L-shape with household equipment that makes a triangle on top of L. Alternatively, you can walk a row of items along one wall, with the addition of a peninsula or breakfast bar in one finish. The rest of the room is left open for a desk or sofa.
Create the triangle
Household equipment is often in line, with the work triangle of stove, sink and refrigerator next to the size of the work floor – the world where you are responsible for organizing meals provides the highest level of the triangle. Alternatively, the household equipment can be placed on two sides of an L-shape, but still leaves room for a sofa or a desk.
This format works best for household kitchens. Open-plan rooms create an ethereal feel and suggest that you just do not turn off when cooking. The multifunctional area provides space for cooking, consumption and sitting – multifunctional space.

In smaller areas with an open floor plan, you want a large extractor fan to stop with the smell of cooking that penetrates the home or takes up space. Test its sound level as well, especially if you have a TV in the same area.
L formed Format
Here are methods to get the right format in an L-shaped kitchen:
Primary format …
Models are organized on two adjacent partitions, or with a peninsula counter at right angles to a wall.
Creating the triangle …
The working triangle joins two key areas on one aspect of L, with the third on the opposite aspect. The sink, stove and refrigerator can be in any order, but placing the sink and stove on the back of L works properly, as you will have a countertop around them.

Small and large kitchens, and in the family, two individuals will want to work at the same time, because they will not preserve each other. In the larger kitchen you can have a desk and chairs in the room by the third and fourth wall.

Having carousel items in the corners will be an area that in all other cases is wasted. If your kitchen is not large enough for a desk, match a narrow breakfast bar on a third wall and stock with stools as an option. You can also stop feeling cramped by turning wall items into just one wall, not every one.
U format
Here are methods to get the correct format in a kitchen in U-shape:
Primary format …
This format is hardly possible where there are unbroken wall sections on three sides of the room, without any door interrupting the U. The models run along the three partitions and offer the most storage and handling area.
Creating the triangle …
Ideally, you have a sink, stove and refrigerator equally distributed on completely different sides of the kitchen, with the three sides of the work triangle between them. This has the added advantage that there are lots of countertops between the stove, refrigerator and sink.
Work for…
Those who take cooking critically. The format provides one of the best workflows with the shortest distances. It also allows large amounts of sink and cabinet space.
Price considering …
In a large U-shaped kitchen, it can be tempting to place a desk in the middle, but for safety, make sure not to interrupt the work triangle. Make sure that the cabinets in the corner are not in a wasted area by becoming carousel items.
A kitchen in the kitchen
Here are methods to get the right format in a kitchen in kitchen:
Primary format …
A row of items running down one side or the other of the kitchen.
Creating the triangle …
The place where there are drag lines with objects, place two work areas on one aspect with the third on the opposite side, so the work triangle connects the two sides. For a kitchen from kitchen with just one row of items, place the stove, refrigerator and sink in a row – the purpose of the triangle will likely be created by you.
Work for…
This form presents an environmentally friendly use of the area, making it the choice of {many professional} chefs. A format with two rows of objects provides space for many preparations, and switching between practice areas can be as simple as just turning around.
Price considering …
You may not want less than 120 cm between the rows of cabinets for 2 people to work comfortably – even if the extra room is higher. You may also want to allow 50 cm for an oven door to open and usually 60 cm for a unit door to open. By using wall cabinets on both sides, the room can really feel cramped, so remember to change with open shelves.
An island kitchen
Here are methods to get the right format in an island kitchen:
Primary format …
Both a single row or an L-shape of objects mixed with a central island.
Creating the triangle …
The work triangle is created both by handling a sink, stove and refrigerator next to a wall, or by becoming a sink or stove on the island. This gives you extra space on the alternate work floor and you will not have to show yours again on the rest of the kitchen when cooking or washing, but it should be worth extra as you will need to drive vendors to the island unit.
Work for…
Huge room, as the area is required on the whole island for work and sitting. It’s nice if you happen to want to entertain, because an island turns a kitchen into a social space – just add a few bar stools and you have a place for friends and households to sit down and chat with the chef.
Price considering …
If you place your hob on the island, plan additional work floors behind it to stop splashes from cooking that hit the ground. You can be extra adventurous with this format and choose household equipment for claims and dramatic cooker hoods. Or go for something purposeful and lovely with a fan that is disguised as a light shade.
