Types of Kitchen Layouts

U-Shaped Kitchen
Details on U-shaped kitchen
A U-shaped kitchen is a common layout that features built-in cabinetry,
countertops and appliances on three sides, with a fourth side left open or
featuring a cased opening or entry door. In larger spaces with enough
width, U-shaped kitchens are often outfitted with a freestanding island or
seating.

Just like the name sounds, an L-shaped kitchen layout
is defined by two perpendicular walls — one longer and
one shorter that meet to form an L.
Typically along the longer wall, you have most of your
counter space and cupboards. Along the shorter wall,
you will have less counter space with one appliance —
often the stove.
Advantages and disadvantages of L-shaped kitchen
Advantages -Tucked into corners and usually with two open ends, L-
shaped kitchen designs allow for easy access to appliances and cooking
materials. This means people can move freely through the space without
much disruption, which is very beneficial for entertaining guests while
preparing food.
Disadvantages-Not Suited For Multiple Cooks. Corner Base Cabinet can be
Difficult to Operate. Challenging Work Triangle. Not Possible For Big Kitchens.
