There are many different kinds of kitchen layouts that I can be done in in a kitchen. It has a lot to do with my budget and the space that I have in my kitchen. I can establish a very good layout and it does not matter what the dimension are, if I employ the work triangle, that is place the range, refrigerator, and sink so they form the three points of a triangle and are no less than four and no more than nine feet apart.
One-wall kitchens locates cabinets, counters, and appliances against a single wall. Although most of this kitchen is against one wall, I can put an area that would be use as a clean-up center that would improve the work space. If a longer line of cabinets is put, this creates a more efficient L. If there is space, I can add a cook top in an island.
A galley kitchen places counters, cabinets, and appliances on opposite walls. Dimensions do not have to compromise, efficiency as long as all the essentials are where it is real handy to the cook. In a galley kitchen, I can have the space I can create another work area or an eating area with an island. I can also leave a space for a nearby eating area. If possible, locate entryways outside the work zone.
An L- shaped layout offers more counter space. If I add a curved island to the L-shaped layout this will expands the possibilities of the work triangle. In an open plan, the L-shaped island keeps your company from coming into your work area. But I place the range across from the L, then I will not interfere with the traffic coming into the kitchen. The U-shaped designs of kitchens are highly functional. The U-shaped kitchen has space for two cooks and multiple work triangles. In this type of kitchen, one section of the kitchen is devoted to extra storage and wall ovens. Sometimes they have multiple work triangles and also an u-shaped eat-in kitchen. Another type of kitchen is a G-shaped which extends a U. A large G-shaped layout allows two cooks who can work together and it also has a generous amount of work surfaces. A G-shape with a U is where I will have an addition of a short leg which is usually a peninsula. This permits me to be able to place the ovens away from the cook top. So this self-contained kitchen will ensures sociability. Summary So as I see there are many different types of kitchen layouts that I can have to choose from for my kitchen. It all depends on what I want in my kitchen,my space, and how much money I have to spend on my kitchen.

A comfortable and happy kitchen, that is filled with your family and friends is very enticing.But, today in most people's kitchens are not used that way because everybody is so busy with work, school, sports, and so much more that the kitchen is not used much, definitely like when I was growing up. When I was growing up each meal was eaten either in our kitchen or our dining room, this was like that because of which season we would be in, in the winter we would stay in the kitchen so it would be warmer, and if it was any other times of the year we would have our meals in the dining room. Most women would still like to have a very well-run kitchen so they can get all of their work done in their kitchen. I like to have my kitchen to be a well-run one.
To me, the best kitchens for now in this time, the best way is to have well used comfortable rooms that you can have many different functions going on in the kitchen. In most house designs the plans are for an open floor plan where you might have your kitchen , dining room, and living room in one area. To be able to create a well-run kitchen there has to have organization in your kitchen. Because a kitchen does not need to have unwashed dishes in the sink to go in the dishwasher, also having toys all over the kitchen if you have little ones. When our daughter was little, she always had a certain place where she could play, not by the stove etc.
A well-run kitchen has to always work as efficiently and comfortable as possible. The surfaces of work tops, appliance tops, stove tops, appliance fronts, cabinet fronts, splash backs, ventilation hoods, and walls should all be tough, durable, and be easy to clean.

The maximum amount of storage space is great, but you need to have a very efficiently and very thoughtfully organized storage spaces. To have deep drawers that can be pull out and be able to store different types of merchandise in both, better organized and easily accessible. Sliding counter top chopping boards and fitted knife drawers will allow for maximum economy of movement. Another way is to have top eye-level cabinets with interior lights and glass fronts so you can see all the contents immediately. Underneath these cabinets put efficient recessed lights or put fluorescent tubes to show an even light on the work surface below. Another way is to have long steel rods and hooks so you can put spice racks, cooking tools, canisters rolls of paper towels, and other things that is useful to keep close to hand.
To be able to have a well-run kitchen, the kitchen would need to have some labor saving equipment, such as microwaves, trash compactors, self-cleaning ovens, freezer and large refrigerators as well as generous work, storage, and dumping space which sometimes you think of this as a good old-fashioned country kitchen. Another very good equipment that you can have in your kitchen is to have workbenches which are work tops or counter tops that has sinks, cook tops, and waste disposal units, chopping and preparation space. The best workbenches will contain all or most of the following elements, a length of deep counter top to keep cooking ingredients that are going to be real close, another real lifesaver to have is having a very deep double sink to be able to wash your vegetables and dishes. If you do not have room to wash and clean up as you go, it would be nice to have a waste and trash disposal. A trash compactor is good to have because it can be put under a counter top and reduces waste to less than a quarter of its original bulk, Good ventilation is something that you need in any working kitchen is good lighting. Cooking produces steam, smells, and grease-laden fumes and condensation and so this is why you need to have good ventilation to get all of this out. There are several methods of ventilation from which you can choose. 1. Exhaust fans will expel smoke, smells, steam, and heat either through the walls or the roof. 2. Ventilation - grilles are usually insert into a cook top with an internal fan that gulps up odors, fumes, and smoke before they have the time to mess up your house.
3. Filtration systems- use changeable charcoal filters instead of ducts to filter smells and grease from dirty air, which, is then refreshed and recirculated. These are really effective only in kitchens that do not see much cooking.
