Ergonomic Kitchen Planning: Optimised Workflow
Find  Efficient  Layout  For  Your  Kitchen
First and foremost, alongside personal preference, your custom kitchen design will depend on what the space dictates. Existing sockets, the room size, doors and windows are usually decisive when it comes to arranging a kitchen. The good news is that every kitchen layout can be optimized for efficient workflow to make cooking and meal preparation a seamless experience.
​
Ergonomic design kitchen layout incorporates the kitchen work triangle - a time-tested concept that connects the three important work areas - the cooktop, sink and refrigerator. The distance between these three areas is minimized and unobstructed so that one can easily multi-task between cooking, cleaning and food preparation.

Custom Ergonomic Kitchen Design Tips
Seven Tips For Transforming Your Marathon
Into a Walk in the Park
-
Stop items falling. The combination of drawers with closed sides and high back panels prevents objects falling down the back of the cabinets.
-
Create good ergonomics. Mechanical or electrical opening mechanisms are ideal when you've got your hands full.
-
Make items fully accessible. Drawers with full extension guarantee the best possible access to all contents.
-
Remain flexible at all times. The better the inner dividing system, the more practical the kitchen organization can be. Flexible inner dividing systems bring order to every drawer.
-
Ensure everything is clearly visible and easily to hand. Store frequently used items at eye level and within easy reach for accessibility.
-
Keep heavy items down low. Put heavy and bulky items on lower cabinet level.
-
Keep rarely used items up high. High storage locations are best allocated to things you use only occasionally. This frees up valuable space within ergonomic reach.
