L-shaped kitchen
Perpendicular counter layout
An L-shaped kitchen has counters and cabinets arranged along two perpendicular walls, forming an L when viewed from above.
This layout maximizes corner space and keeps the work triangle—sink, stove, refrigerator—compact: We renovated and went with an L-shaped kitchen to open up the dining area.
