U-shaped kitchens in Playa Flamenca

We have been fitting u-shaped kitchens in Playa Flamenca for years, so we know the homes in the area. You get a fixed price before we start and the delivery date in writing.

Playa Flamenca is an area of developments from the eighties and nineties: square kitchens of about six meters, with a window to the patio and original furniture from the promotion. At that age, what usually fails are the hardware and the bottoms of the sink due to humidity. We usually propose a complete new kitchen taking advantage of the installations, which are generally in good condition.

Three walls working. It is the layout that offers the most countertop space and storage, and it best separates the washing, cooking, and storage areas. In return, it needs enough width for two people to cross each other.

Cocinas en U

How wide is needed?

There must be a minimum corridor of 120 cm between the two opposing fronts. With less than that, you cannot open a drawer and the dishwasher door at the same time, and the kitchen becomes uncomfortable just when it is used the most.

With 150 cm, two people can fit comfortably. Above 180 cm, you start to walk more, and then an L-shaped layout with an island usually compensates better.

Two corners to solve

A U has two corners instead of one. They are solved just like in the L, with extras, and it is advisable to decide this from the design stage because it affects which piece of furniture goes in each spot.

When a U-shape fits in Playa Flamenca

A U needs width: three runs and room to open the doors. In terraced duplexes, from the nineties to 2010, sometimes it fits and sometimes it does not.

Kitchens round here tend to be open to the living room and with a window, so we measure before proposing one. If it will not fit, an L gives you almost the same storage.
