A very important consideration when designing a kitchen is the working triangle. It is identified by drawing a line from your sink to your refrigerator and to your stove or cooktop. Each of these lines becomes one side of the triangle. The distance between any of these items will impact how easy or comfortable it is to work in your kitchen. Once you've identified your working triangle, it will help you envision any changes you may want to make your workflow more efficient. 3Rs Construction Pro Tip #5: Each leg should be 3-6 steps apart. 3Rs Construction Pro Tip #6: Each of these fixtures should have a countertop on one or preferably both sides. 3Rs Construction Pro Tip #7: There should be nothing blocking the path to each of these fixtures, i.e., islands or roll-away workspaces.
