If you're planning a kitchen renovation, you've likely already fallen down the rabbit hole of the dreaded kitchen triangle debate. For some, it's an absolute essential. The non-debatable backbone to every good kitchen design. And to others, it's an outdated, overrated old wives' tale — a rule that should've been abandoned long ago.
It can all get rather heated, not to mention thoroughly overwhelming for someone simply trying to find the best layout for them. At the crux of the matter, though, is not the concept of the 'working triangle' itself, but how exactly you do it. Because, despite how fervently people protest against it, there's a reason this layout has been sworn by for so many years. It introduces logic and flow into your kitchen, and so long as you know the mistakes to avoid, it can be the key to a functional and well-designed space.
