Tired of bumping elbows and knocking knees in the kitchen? Is the distance between work centers so great that you've considered roller skates? If either of these scenarios sounds familiar, a kitchen remodel might be in order for a safe-and-convenient work environment. The primary element in kitchen design is the work triangle. That's the path of activity connecting the sink, range and refrigerator. The most efficient kitchens contain a work triangle with a total length of not less than 23 feet and not more than 26 feet. To save steps, no side of the triangle should be less than 7 feet or more than nine feet. To avoid unnecessary interruption in the kitchen, traffic between other areas of the home should not cross the triangle. Save steps by putting your best foot forward when planning your dream kitchen. And that's the On The House tip for today.
