Galley, L-shape, U-shape, G-shape, single-wall, peninsula and island layouts compared for flow, storage and entertaining.
A kitchen layout is the skeleton everything else hangs on. The galley is efficient and narrow, with two parallel runs. The L-shape wraps two walls and opens the room. The U-shape surrounds the cook with storage. The G-shape adds a peninsula. A single-wall layout suits small or open spaces, and an island adds prep space and seating to many of these. In Nashville homes, which range from compact bungalows to sprawling open plans, each layout has its place.
The classic work triangle between sink, range and refrigerator still helps, but modern kitchens also consider zones, aisle widths and how many people cook at once. Aisles about a few feet wide work for one cook, wider for two. Islands need generous clearance on every side. We sketch two or three layouts for your room, check clearances and traffic, and talk through the tradeoffs so you can see what each gives and what it takes.
