Food Prep Cooking Baking Cleaning

Kitchen Zone One: Food Prep
The food prep zone is the area of the kitchen where you slice and dice. If your kitchen is spacious enough to accommodate an island cabinet, the food prep zone would be well placed there. It’s helpful to include another sink for rinsing fruits and vegetables, as well as including a refrigerator drawer for milk and eggs if your main refrigerator isn’t easily accessible.

In your food prep zone include:
Pullouts
Drawer for knives
Drawers for mixing, measuring and serving items
Pullout trash center

Kitchen Zone Two: Baking Zone
This area is built for fun! The baking zone of the kitchen is where cookies, breads, and casseroles come to life. Aside from the appropriate countertop space and material (marble slabs work best for rolling dough), you’ll need to keep a number of your kitchen's supplies within easy reach.

Include:
Drawers for storing small items like cookie cutters
Storage Bins for flour and sugar
Pull Out Tray divider for baking sheets and pizza pans
Drop down cookbook rack
Drawers for rolling pins, measuring cups, and teaspoons
Easy-to-reach cabinet space for heavy casserole dishes and mixing bowls
Storage for oven mitts, pot holders, and trivets
Divided utensil storage for spatulas and wooden spoons
Pop-up stand for your mixer

Kitchen Zone Three: Cooking Zone
The cooking zone is always a hot place to be. The kitchen's cooking zone is where fire enters the picture. Centered around the range or cook top, this is the spot where stir-fry, spaghetti, and sauces and steaks sizzle. You may want to keep your microwave and toaster oven here as well.

Include:
Deep drawers for pans
Shallow drawers for pot lids
Spice drawer (or cleverly hidden racks in pull outs)
Microwave cabinet for concealing and saving countertop space
Utensil drawer for spatulas and spoons

Kitchen Zone Four: Cleaning Zone
Next to your sink and dishwasher, the cleaning area of the kitchen is the home of water and washing. Keep “water dependent products” like your coffeemaker and salad spinner nearby. You’ll also be emptying the last bits of lasagna and soup into containers here, so keep storage supplies nearby. Include space for an adequate number of cleaning and drying supplies, as well as a convenient way to store clean dishware.

Include:
Pullout rack for dishtowels
Plate rack for storing daily or occasional dinnerware
Under sink pullout for dish washing detergent and cleaner
Tilt out sink tray for sponges. Drawer for aluminum foil, paper, and plastic wrap storage
Pullout drawer for Tupperware, divided for lids and containers

Although not directly involved in the four zones of the kitchen remember the “dining zone.” There is more flexibility involved with designing your eating area, however do consider adding easily accessible storage for tablecloths, place-mats, napkins, or infrequently used chinaware.
