A U-shaped kitchen is a type of kitchen design that is characterized by three walls lined with appliances and cabinets. This design efficiently opens up the floor space. A U-shaped kitchen maximizes the utility of wall space by using the wall as the installation point of appliances and cabinets. The U shape makes it possible for users of the room to reach various parts of the kitchen without the need to walk across the entire room.

 

A kitchen island can be incorporated to enable the use of this design if the room's layout doesn't permit the use of three wall. The U-shaped kitchen design can be used on different kitchen styles and the kitchen size is not an important factor. Designers organizing the kitchen in a U-shaped design place the most utilized kitchen appliances in a single triangle-shaped space. This makes sure that working in the new kitchen is more efficient.
