In the twenty-first century, the kitchen’s work triangle might be eight-sided…

Back when Greg was a real estate rookie, he came home after spending the day helping a couple find their perfect home, ablaze with new information, wanting to share with me the new term that Mrs. Buyer had taught him — The Kitchen Triangle. I think he was a little surprised that I knew what he was talking about. I wasn’t a Realtor yet — years from it. But I am a woman, and I have had plenty of decades learning the difference a conveniently laid out kitchen can make.

So, I found it interesting to learn today that the work triangle that I learned about at my grandma’s apron is so last century! Susan Serra, Certified Kitchen Designer, tells us:

The bottom line in today’s new kitchen seems to be it’s all about US (one’s family), not “me,” with multiple stations designed for specific needs and/or desires.

Her article gives us cogent examples, a diagram, and a promise of further elaboration in future posts.
