A U-shape kitchen features three connected walls of cabinetry and appliances, forming a “U” layout. This design maximizes storage and counter space, making it ideal for larger kitchens. It offers an efficient work triangle, keeping the sink, stove, and refrigerator within easy reach. The layout supports multiple work zones, making it perfect for households that cook frequently or entertain often. However, it requires ample space and can feel enclosed if not well-lit or if upper cabinets dominate the design.
