Proper positioning

Assigning a place for everything according to their use is very helpful because it takes out unnecessary steps or requirements for completing regular kitchen tasks. Containers and wrapping materials should be stored close to the workstation so that leftover food can be swiftly stored. Dishes and flatware should be stored close to the dishwasher because this will make it incredibly easier when it comes to unloading. Also, taking a bowl out of the counter and walking across the entire kitchen to sit down isn’t very ideal so you can store breakfast related items next to the breakfast table for example.

It is ideal to maintain a 36-48 inch width for walkways.
