This document discusses kitchen design and layout. It describes the key work centers in a kitchen as the sink, range, and refrigeration center. Effective kitchen design groups these centers together in a workflow that minimizes unnecessary movement. Several common kitchen layout types are then outlined, including wall, corridor, U-shape, L-shape, and peninsula/island types. Each layout is described in terms of its space efficiency, suitability for different sizes of kitchens and number of users. The overall message is that kitchen design should facilitate food preparation through logical placement of work centers.
