 WHAT IS A KITCHEN?
It is a room or part of a room used for cooking and food
preparation in a dwelling or in a commercial
establishment. A modern middle-class residential kitchen is
typically equipped with a stove, a sink with hot and cold
running water, a refrigerator, worktops and
kitchen cabinets arranged according to a modular design.

 THE WORK TRIANGLE
The work triangle was devised in the 1920’s as one
of the first measures of efficiency in a residential
kitchen. The triangle creates a clear path between the
area for food preparation (stove top), the cleaning
area (kitchen sink) and the food storage area
(refrigerator).

THE PRINCIPLES OF THE KITCHEN

WORK TRIANGLE:
• The length of each triangle leg is between 1.2 and
2.7m
• The combined length of the three legs should be
between 4m and 7.9m
• There should not be any appliances or cabinetry
intersecting any of the legs of the triangle
• There should not be any major traffic through the
triangle

5. ISLAND KITCHEN
6. PENINSULA KITCHEN

BLT - BUILDING TECHNOLOGY II MODULE 05 KITCHEN AND T&B DETAILS

 ONE WALL KITCHEN
• Usually found in smaller kitchens
• Due to limited space, cabinets are taken up as
high as possible to maximize storage
• Also called “along the wall” kitchen.

BLT - BUILDING TECHNOLOGY II MODULE 05 KITCHEN AND T&B DETAILS

 GALLEY KITCHEN
• It consists of two rows of cabinets facing
each other, creating an inner passage or
galley between them.
• Very economical layout use of cabinetry
• Work areas are located along only one of the
walls, not both to avoid traffic through the
work triangle and eliminate the risk of injury

BLT - BUILDING TECHNOLOGY II MODULE 05 KITCHEN AND T&B DETAILS

 L-SHAPED KITCHEN
• A practical layout option for small and large
kitchens
• It has cabinets along two perpendicular walls
• The open plan design offers great flexibility
in the placement of appliances and work
zones
• For ease of use, limit the legs of the L up to
4.50m

BLT - BUILDING TECHNOLOGY II MODULE 05 KITCHEN AND T&B DETAILS

 U-SHAPED KITCHEN
• A great layout for larger kitchens
• Consists of cabinetry along three adjacent
walls
• Provides plenty of storage but can feel
enclosed if there are upper cabinets on all
three walls
• Allows for great workflow and multiple users
at the same time

BLT - BUILDING TECHNOLOGY II MODULE 05 KITCHEN AND T&B DETAILS

 ISLAND KITCHEN
• A very popular choice in open plan homes
• Provides a large work surface or storage area
in the middle of the kitchen
• The island can incorporate a cooking surface,
prep bowl and bar or wine fridge. It can also
be used simply as a preparation area or for
enjoying family meals
• The island can also be utilized as both a
work- and social area where family and
friends can interact while meals are being
prepared

BLT - BUILDING TECHNOLOGY II MODULE 05 KITCHEN AND T&B DETAILS

 PENINSULA KITCHEN
• The peninsula is related to the island kitchen
and incorporates a kitchen counter that juts
out from a wall or cabinetry
• A great solution that offers the benefits of a
kitchen island where space doesn’t allow for
an independent island to be installed
• The peninsula can be used for food
preparation, eating or other tasks while the
cook is busy with meal preparation
