The only exception I put sink on the left and hob on the right. The idea is that you move from left to right in your cooking process cycle (wash first, then work area for cutting and after cutting, put into the bowl on hob) and if you are right handed - it makes absolute sense this way.

If there is not enough space for three sections in the kitchen, you could use the above layout. Ours will be a smallish kitchen, so we chose the above layout, hope it works out well Re: Kitchen layout 9Jul 08, 2020 9:21 am We've done exactly as you've suggested, with the sink off to the side. This keeps the island as a food prep / breakfast bar / cheese and wine station / social hub / drop zone etc. It's also a good transfer zone for clearing the dining table, which it faces. The wall behind the island is full height cabinetry, with oven, microwave and (integrated) fridge. The galley to the side has the sink, and the cooktop tucked a little bit around the corner which leads to the walk in pantry. The cooktop is the loudest work zone in the kitchen, so the idea was to minimise the intrusiveness of this whilst still maintaining social connection. The pantry is an entirely dry zone, although a second fridge will be located in here as an overflow (drinks and freezer items, mainly).
