The idea of the kitchen triangle has dominated the kitchen industry for many years. It is formed around the three major appliances: cooktop, sink and fridge.
Kitchens used to be closed off and accommodated only one person. This worked reasonably well when only one family member was responsible for kitchen duties, but add another person sharing the workload, and suddenly people arc colliding and crossing paths as they individually move between the three points.
Modem families hang out together in the kitchen for multiple purposes, making the "triangle” obsolete. For example, on a busy weeknight between work or school and extracurricular activities, a typical family is usually working on several tasks at the same time in the kitchen: one partner is propping a quick meal, the other is unloading the dishwasher; one child is grabbing a quick snack while the other is parked at the island doing homework. This scenario would have wreaked havoc on the dated kitchen triangle design.
