Everybody says modular kitchens are a godsend and they are perfectly designed to utilize as well as maximise every piece of spaces available in your kitchen. However, when you plan a kitchen layout you need to remember the most important aspect of how you wish to use your kitchen. Eventually, based on your utilities, you can then think of several types of modular kitchen layouts such as an l shaped modular kitchen, or a straight layout, or a u-shaped modular layout, or a galley or parallel layout, or an island layout, or a peninsula or g-shaped modular layout. You need to further articulate the natural work path in and around your modular kitchen and other spaces of your house. In addition to this, you need to also determine what type of or which type of layout or popular shape suits you as well as your space the best.
The l-shaped layout is most popularly and ideally adopted in smaller homes. In I-shaped modular kitchen layout, you can efficiently make use of minimum floor space and conveniently put a smaller dining table in the kitchen. Eventually, the l-shaped modular kitchen layout is compact, small, versatile, and discreet as well as provides maximum storage. On the other hand, the straight layout is more preferred in loft apartments and studios which eventually keeps the kitchen space minimum but still provides maximum efficiencies. The straight layout ultimately does not involve a work triangle like other layouts because the entire workflow is done of a straight line. The straight layout is unobtrusive, versatile, compact and suitable for both large and smaller kitchen spaces.
The u-shaped layout is most suitable if your kitchen has plenty of spaces and your utilities of the kitchen are maximum. The u-shaped modular kitchen layout creates an efficient and effective work triangle and gives plenty of storage spaces with sufficient floor and wall cabinets including maximum counter spaces. If you have a family, the u-shaped layout is the best for you. As far as cooking is concerned, the galley or parallel shape is the best layout for you. You can split the two long working areas of the parallel shape into dry and wet workspaces. This type of layout provides plenty of storage and counter spaces which you can make use for appliances. Finally, the island and the g-shaped or peninsula layouts are similar to each other and combine either l-shaped or straight kitchen layouts.
