If you’ve been looking at refurbishing or upgrading your kitchen you may have come across the term ‘kitchen work triangle’. However, you may be left wondering what one is and if you need a kitchen work triangle in your home. That’s what we look at in this blog post.
Firstly, let’s look at what a kitchen work triangle is. It is a basic concept in kitchen design where you can cook, wash and refrigerate within comfortable access. These areas of the kitchen are often used at the same, so it makes sense that hey are all easy to get to.
So, do you need a kitchen work triangle in your new kitchen? It certainly makes life easier. After all, if you are cooking a meal, you need the fresh ingredients from the fridge. You then need to prepare them and cook them. While doing so, you may want to pop some dirty items in the sink and wash-up if you have chance. By having these things in a triangle, it will be easier to get around the kitchen.
However, it depends on the shape and size of your kitchen. If you have a small kitchen or an open plan kitchen, for example, this lay out might not work for you. This is why we recommend that you have a chat with our kitchen design and kitchen fitting specialists in Peterborough. We can help you choose the best kitchen layout for you, your kitchen, your home and your family.
The biggest benefit of the kitchen work triangle is that fewer steps are needed to get around your kitchen. In turn, this means fewer opportunities for spillages, slips or falls. The layout helps to make the kitchen safer for the whole family. There are ways that we can incorporate this layout into any kitchen, even if it isn’t in the shape of a perfect triangle.
