U-Shaped Kitchen
Best of the kitchen plans and most popular.
Three work centres on three adjacent walls.
Provide a great deal of continuous counter space for work.
 L-shaped Kitchen:
Also be regarded as a good type.
Two walls empty or free corner can be utilized for keeping built-in
storage or dining area.
Three work centres right to left are placed on adjacent walls.
 Corridor Kitchen or Two Wall Kitchen:
It resembles the strip kitchen.
workable kitchen.
Its disadvantage is that it often acts as a passage and traffic
interferes while meal preparation.
 Straight Line Plan
• Work centers are on one wall.

Advantage – Good plan where

space is limited.
Efficient for one person.

Disadvantage – Tend to be small,

with limited storage
and counter space.
Island Shaped Kitchen:
It needs a fairly large room.
It could be used as cooking range or food preparation area.
It reduces the amount of walking.
 Peninsula Plan
• Extension of a countertop.

Advantage – Makes use of

larger more
spacious area.

connected island, converting an
L-shaped kitchen layout into a
horseshoe or U-shape.

layout, the peninsula serves as
a room divider that separates
the kitchen from a dining or
living room area, as seen in this
design
