Kitchen's are one of the most frequently used rooms in the home. The average American spends over 1000 hours a year in the kitchen. So a comfortable, functional kitchen is essential for most homeowners. There are many options of kitchen layouts from large to small kitchens. The secret to success for a functional kitchen layout is the Kitchen Triangle!

The Kitchen Triangle is the creation of a triangular working path formed between the sink, the stove and the refrigerator. In every kitchen, the common kitchen work of prepping food, cooking food, storing food and cleaning is centered around those three areas of the kitchen. When designing a kitchen remodel, the working path directly effects the efficiency of the kitchen, so striving to set the sink, stove and fridge in a triangular working patch will create the most efficiency in your kitchen.

There are also general rules to follow which we can assist with in your kitchen remodel plans to help with efficient work flow. These include the length of each leg in the triangle, the total sum of all legs on the triangle and the keeping obstacles from within the working triangle space. Another recommendation is to keep the triangle out of pass through traffic ways. The image below from KITCHINSIDER does a great job simplifying the Kitchen Triangle.
