The triangle's parts depict traffic flow in a kitchen, with the goal of producing a circular movement between the chores of cooking (stove), chopping/peeling (sink), and storing (refrigerator). As a result, it is critical that no feature, such as a kitchen island, obstructs the flow. Otherwise, you will create a dead zone in the center of the room. There are many variations on this theme, but the basic idea remains the same: there should be one central point around which all other activities occur. This helps make sure that nothing gets forgotten or lost. The concept also applies to rooms beyond the kitchen - like kitchens themselves have areas they call "utilities" where you can store items like cleaning products or dishware. These too should be considered part of the core area of activity. In conclusion, the kitchen triangle is important because it ensures that no feature blocks the traffic flow, which in turn ensures maximum efficiency when cooking.
