WHAT IS THE WORKING TRIANGLE?

The working triangle dictates where the three key elements – hob, sink and fridge-freezer – sit in your kitchen. It’s an important consideration to reduce the distance you have to walk when cooking. You move between these three features all the time when preparing meals, so they need to be in a practical arrangement and within easy reach of each other. Ideally, the sides of the triangle created by these three points should be no more than 2.7m and no less than 1.2m long.
