Excerpt
These are examples of efficient L-shaped arrangements for kitchens. The width of each work area is based on the recommended counter widths given on page 4 and the cabinet space needed above and below the counter to store items listed on page 3. Foods are grouped by area at which they are stored, such as range foods. In some arrangements, two types of items are stored together, such as mix and sink foods.
Select the arrangement that fits best into your house plan. Compare the list of items you want to store with the list on page 3. If you need more storage space, increase the width of the area where you need it, if your plan permits, or provide space elsewhere for extra supplies and seldom-used utensils. If you use a single wall oven, you will have extra storage space in the base cabinet below the oven.
On page 3 you will find sketches of the wall and base cabinets used in the arrangements illustrated. Shelf spacing shown will make the best use of the cabinet.
