U-Shape Kitchen Islands are continuous kitchen layouts that locate cabinetry and fixtures along three adjacent walls around a centralized island counter.

Dimensions & Sizes
A minimum aisle width of 3’6” (1.07 m) must be provided for use, but it is recommended that this zone be enlarged to between 4’-6’ (1.2-1.8 m) to provide greater access and movement space for multiple people around the island. U-Shape Kitchen Islands have widths that range from 15’-18’ (4.6-5.5 m) with overall depths and island dimensions that vary as needed. U-Shape Kitchen Islands should be planned with an overall area of roughly 155 ft2 (14.4 m2).

What is a U-Shape Kitchen Island layout?
U-Shape Kitchen Islands are continuous kitchen layouts that locate cabinetry and fixtures along three adjacent walls around a centralized island counter.
How much clearance is required in front of an U-Shape Kitchen Island?
U-Shape Kitchens must maintain a minimum clearance aisle of 3’6” | 1.07 m, but it is recommended that a clearance width between 4’-6’ | 1.2-1.8 m should be provided in order to provide sufficient access to the kitchen equipment.
How big is a U-Shape Kitchen Island layout?
U-Shape Kitchen Islands should be sized with an estimated area of around 155 ft2 | 14.4 m2. Common widths of U-Shape Kitchen Island layouts range from 15’-18’ | 4.6-5.5 m with depths and island dimensions that are flexible as necessary.
What are the factors to consider when planning a kitchen layout?
The first factor to consider is the available space and intended use of that space as all people cook and use kitchens differently. After, comes placement of necessary appliances such as a dishwasher, refrigerator, and sink. Between these appliances, specific areas should be designated to indicate prepping, cooking, baking, and to organize tools among these zones. Other important factors include the availability of a work surface, efficient storage, and quality lighting.
How do you design a small kitchen?
A single row or one-wall kitchen is considered the most suitable layout for a small kitchen. All necessary equipment and storage can be found in this design although it is noted to be lacking in sufficient counter space. A kitchen cart with the top surface used as a butcher block can be an efficient addition. An L-shaped layout is another option for designing a kitchen within a small space by maximizing the use of a corner. In both cases, the opposite empty wall can feature a table that can fold down when not in use.
What is modular kitchen design?
Modular kitchen design features small modules that together, form a kitchen that increases space, storage, and efficiency. The layout of a modular kitchen can be broken down into set sections and as such, make for easy installation and repetition in production. For example, a modular kitchen cabinet is a stand alone and pre-made element that can enhance functionality for the user by meeting individual needs.
