The kitchen is a space that is used frequently in the home. As an important part of the kitchen, the location and design of the sink directly affect the convenience and efficiency of cooking. Different kitchen layouts, such as L-shaped, U-shaped and island-shaped, have different requirements for the selection and placement of sinks. Here are some professional suggestions to help you choose the right sink in different kitchen layouts.

L-shaped kitchen

The L-shaped kitchen is one of the most common layouts and is suitable for various types of households. Its characteristics are that the two walls form a right angle to separate the sink and the cooking area, with clear functional divisions and smooth movement lines. When choosing a sink, it is recommended to place the sink near the window, so that natural light can be fully utilized, while facilitating drainage and ventilation. In addition, the size of the sink should be selected according to the actual space of the kitchen. Generally, a sink with a width of 600mm is sufficient to meet daily needs.

U-shaped kitchen

The U-shaped kitchen is suitable for kitchens with larger spaces. Its layout is U-shaped, with an operating table in the middle and a cooking area and storage area on both sides. The sink is usually located at the bottom of the U-shape or near the window, so that a reasonable "working triangle" can be formed, that is, the distance between the refrigerator, sink and stove is moderate, which is convenient for operation. In a U-shaped kitchen, the choice of sink should consider its depth and width to ensure that there is enough space for washing and preparing ingredients.

Island kitchen

The island kitchen is a more popular layout in recent years and is suitable for large families. Its feature is that there is an independent island in the center of the kitchen, which can be used as both an operating table and a dining area. In an island kitchen, the location of the sink is more flexible and can be placed in the center of the island or near the window. If you choose to place the sink in the center of the island, it is recommended to choose a sink with a drainage system to prevent water from splashing around.
