U-shaped configurations make efficient use of available space and create functional layouts for modern kitchen designs. U-shaped kitchens provide plenty of storage, as their plan consists of three countertop surfaces connected to form an open rectangle. Typical for small spaces, the U-shaped layouts are practical, ergonomic, and attractive.
Modern kitchens in the U-shape allow adding a kitchen island to the center. The design looks compact and comfortable, with convenient storage in wall-hung cabinets or shelves above countertops. The modern kitchen designs featuring a U-shape layout create an ergonomic triangle. Everything is close to hand and easy to reach when you work in a U-shaped kitchen.
