KITCHEN LAYOUT
KITCHEN LAYOUT
Understanding the basic principles of kitchen layout will help
take much of the mystery out of the design process. One of
the most basic layout principles is the work triangle. The work
triangle is an imaginary line drawn from each of the three
primary work stations in the kitchen - the food storage,
preparation/cooking, and clean-up stations. By drawing these
lines, you can assess the distance required to move to and
from each area and thus determine how well the traffic will
flow. To help avoid traffic flow problems, work triangles should
have a perimeter that measures less than 26 feet.
The three primary kitchen work stations which create the
work triangle are:
The food storage station is where your refrigerator and
pantry are the major items here. Cabinetry like lazy susan or
swing-out pantry units adds function and convenience. Options
like wine racks, spice racks, and roll-out trays help to organize
your groceries.
The three primary kitchen work stations which create the
work triangle are:
The preparation/cooking station is where your range, oven,
microwave, and smaller appliances are found in this area.
Counter space is important in this section. Conserve space by
moving appliances off the counter with appliance garage
cabinets and space-saving ideas like towel rods and pot lid
racks.
The three primary kitchen work stations which create the
work triangle are:
The clean-up station is everyone's least favorite activity is one
of the kitchen's most important - clean-up. This area is home to
the sink, waste disposal, and dishwasher. Cabinetry for this
station is designed to organize with the trash bin cabinet and
roll- out tray baskets for storage convenience.
