So, in order to make the process of cooking a little more comfortable, have you considered the comfort of the kitchen itself?When it comes to the comfort of the kitchen, there is one detail that is often overlooked, and that is the design of the high and low tables.
Why do you want to make high and low countertops?
Most of the people who cook regularly have had the experience of bending over to wash things in the sink, and after a long time, the waist will become very sore;The stove is too high, and you always have to hold your arms when stir-frying, and if you fry a few more vegetables, your arms will be too tired to lift them.

How to make high and low countertops for different kitchen layouts?
Slotted layout
Generally speaking, only small kitchens will use a slotted worktop, which occupies a small area and the countertop is not too large, so when we design, we can put the sink area and food preparation area together, and the cooking area can be sunk separately.
L-shaped layout
The L-shaped layout is the kitchen layout that most families will choose, with the corner of the wall as the center, the stove and sink against the wall respectively, and the circulation line is spread out in both directions.
Splitting high and low at corners is the most common way, and it is also more visually aesthetically pleasing.
U-shaped layout
The U-shaped kitchen layout is generally square, and the operation line is short, forming the most reasonable kitchen work triangle and high operation efficiency.

The worktop can be set to three heights, the stove area is low, the sink is medium-high, the bar is the highest, and the bar and the sink can be used as a cutting area, taking into account the height difference between the male and female hosts.
Two-line layout
This kind of layout can be directly divided into functional areas, stir-frying and preparing vegetables in the low area, washing, cutting and serving vegetables in the high area, and the moving line is reasonable.
