Basic Kitchen Layout Plans:

1) The basic kitchen layout plans that will help you design and renovate your kitchen are:

• one-wall kitchen design,
• corridor style,
• L-shaped kitchen design,
• double L-shape kitchen layout, and
• U-shape kitchen design.

2) Kitchen renovation means arranging your kitchen design into something that will better suit your needs and improve the flow of the kitchen. To help you decide what you need, we provide you some basic kitchen layout tips:


          a) If your kitchen space is long and narrow, then we recommend a one-wall kitchen design. It will give  you the most reasonable cost for renovating your kitchen. This will allow you to most efficiently use your limited amount of kitchen space. A one-wall kitchen design may not be the most artistic kitchen lay out, but it is the most practical one.


       b) The corridor style kitchen design is based on the "classic kitchen triangle". It is a very functional layout compared to that of a one-wall kitchen design. It is also an affordable layout plan that maximizes available counter spaces. However, this layout plan tends to cause crowding and traffic congestion because of the parallel working areas.


     c) A popular basic type of kitchen layout is an L-shaped kitchen design. It is a practical kitchen plan that provides more area for you to work on minimizing traffic while working in the kitchen. The surfaces are arranged in a L design which follows the classic kitchen triangle for the placements of the fridge, sink, and stove. The more counter space is added, the longer the distance will get for the kitchen triangle.


   d) If you want to have a kitchen with generous working stations, then a double L-shaped layout will work for you. For kitchens with larger space, this type of layout plan provides a smaller L and larger L surfaces to work on. This design type provides more counter top spaces than any of the basic layout plans.

    e) A U-shaped kitchen design is a layout similar to that of a corridor-shaped kitchen but with a closing end. This design provides ample space and functionality. It also follows the practical arrangement of the classic kitchen triangle. The closing end can be utilized as extra space for other equipment.
