Hi guys,
I read a book about kitchen layout... and I'd like to get your opinion about this:
"The efficient kitchen has what we call a "work triangle," composed of the cooking, mixing and sink centers. The sum of the distances between these three should not exceed 22 feet. It is recommended that this triangle have from 4 to 6 feet between range and sink (measured from the center fronts of the appliances), 4 to 7 feet between refrigerator and sink, and 4 to 9 feet between range and refrigerator. They maintain that a work triangle with a total distance of from 15 to 22 feet is considered satisfactory.
Efficiency will be improved if there are no more that 4 feet between cabinets and appliances on opposite walls, 3 feet between cabinets placed at right angles, 4 feet between appliances placed at right angles, 3 feet in front of an over door and 16 inches between the counter top and the cabinet above it. Where there are cabinets over the range, there should be 24 inches of clearance between the range top and the cabinets. It should be well to double check the local building code, especially for the clearances dimensions over the stove."
Are you still implementing this?
Thank you!
