How to make it functional and modern?

[/ish_headline][ish_divider][ish_image image=»1678″ align=»center»]Achieving the perfect balance between an avant-garde and functional kitchen design takes work, especially when considering constructing a neuralgic place for culinary arts lovers, such as the work triangle.

The kitchen area, where an imaginary triangle is formed, connects the three most essential stations: the storage area, washing, and cooking food.

Know the essential parameters when remodeling your kitchen to achieve the comfort you are looking for.

1. The perfect dimensions

[/ish_headline][ish_divider]Determining the correct dimensions is vital to creating or remodeling your kitchen from scratch. For this reason, the distance between the working triangle's three sides should measure between 1.3 and 2.8 meters. This will ensure a comfortable space.

Another important aspect is the sum of the distances of the work triangle, which generally ranges between 4 and 8 meters. In addition, it would be a mistake to place any piece of furniture that would hinder traffic in the area. The triangle space should be part of the free movement area in the home.

If the kitchen has a linear layout and there is no triangle to work in, it is best to place the sink or cleaning station in the middle, precisely between the storage area and the cooking area. This way, you will achieve a better spatial balance.

2. Apply ergonomics in your kitchen

[/ish_headline][ish_divider]In addition to taking care of the dimensions in the kitchen work triangle, it is also essential to place ergonomic pieces of furniture that follow international standards; that is, avoid placing uncomfortable countertops, doors, or cabinets.

Another vital point is lighting. A window in the kitchen will bring warmth to the home, and lighting in strategic points will improve the functionality of your kitchen.

Online kitchen

[/ish_headline]This type of distribution prevents us from forming a work triangle, but if the kitchen is small, it is a good option. In this case, the areas of the triangle are in line, so you should ensure that the washing area is in the middle for better distribution. Depending on whether you are left or right-handed, the other two storage and refrigeration areas will be placed.[ish_divider][ish_image image=»2894″][ish_headline]

L-shaped kitchen

[/ish_headline]Do you want to take advantage of a corner? The L-shaped kitchen is the solution. It will allow you to place a small island or table where you can work or eat. Although it will enable you to take advantage of the space, it is not recommended if there will be more than two people in the kitchen.[ish_divider][ish_image image=»2893″][ish_headline]

U-shaped kitchen

You will make the most of the space and have a wide variety of storage options. Remember that you should not abuse the measures.[ish_divider][ish_image image=»2895″][ish_headline]
