The document discusses different kitchen layout designs including L-shaped, U-shaped, G-shaped, galley or corridor, and one-wall or straight kitchens. The L-shaped kitchen is efficient for small and corner spaces, while the U-shaped kitchen divides the kitchen into multiple workspaces and allows for freer traffic flow and more counter space. The G-shaped kitchen includes a fourth leg or peninsula to provide additional counter and storage space as well as seating. Galley kitchens have more length than width with two opposing walls of workspace and storage separated by a single traffic lane. One-wall kitchens are the smallest design with cabinets, refrigerator, sink, and stove along a single wall.
