As housing prices remain high, small apartments with small areas but relatively reasonable overall prices have become the most sought-after apartments.

In a 3-5_ kitchen space, a comfortable use experience can be created through clever layout.

Below, the editor will bring you the three most suitable decoration methods for small apartment kitchens: "straight-line", "L-shaped" and "open". Let's learn about them together.

When laying out a straight-shaped kitchen, the distance between the refrigerator and the stove should be controlled between 2.4 meters and 3.6 meters.

If the distance is less than 2.4 meters, the cabinet storage space and operating table will be very narrow; if the distance is too long, the distance to and from the kitchen will be increased, making people tired and reducing work efficiency.

Adaptation points: A reasonable layout of the "one-word" kitchen requires a prerequisite: water and gas pipes and electrical wiring are distributed on the same wall.

Advantages: There are no obstacles affecting movement during operation, each cabinet can be fully utilized, and all equipment is clearly visible.

Disadvantages: The work surface is generally not abundant, and there are generally not too many cabinets. Families with a little more kitchen supplies may feel that it is not enough.

L-shaped kitchen The three main work centers of cleaning, meal preparation and cooking are arranged in the interconnected L-shaped wall space.

The stove and the sink are located on both sides of the "L" shape, providing enough room for family members to participate together.

It is best not to design one side of the L shape to be too long to avoid reducing work efficiency. This kind of space is more common and economical to use.

Adaptation points: For an "L"-shaped kitchen, the cabinets should be designed along the largest outside edge, so that a longer cabinet can be installed and the kitchen function can be maximized.

Advantages: It can make full use of the operating space in the middle area and form a triangular area during the process of washing, cutting and frying. It is the most reasonable kitchen operating principle.

Disadvantages: The corners of wall cabinets and floor cabinets can easily form a visual and usable blind spot. At the same time, the applicable corner pull baskets are mostly imported products and are relatively expensive.

When designing an open kitchen, attention should be paid to avoiding basic structures such as firewalls or overhead beams when renovating the space. It can be changed into partition areas such as a bar according to local conditions.

The style of the cabinets should be consistent with the home, leaving enough turning space and storage space.

At the same time, emphasis should also be placed on designing ventilation and smoke removal performance.

Adaptation points: The special bar counter shows personality and can cleverly separate the space. At the same time, the bar counter can be used as a casual dining table. It can be said that it kills three birds with one stone.

Advantages: The open kitchen has better permeability, can effectively extend the home space, and can also facilitate communication with others while cooking.

Disadvantages: It cannot isolate the fumes and noise generated during cooking. At the same time, other spaces in the home must also be taken into account when cleaning, and it cannot be washed directly with water.
