The Best Layouts for a Functional and Stylish IKEA Kitchen Renovation

A well-planned kitchen layout has the power to transform your area, making it more functional, fashionable, and efficient. Planning an IKEA kitchen renovation or replacing cabinets requires the right choice of layout. Here are the best kitchen layouts to maximize both functionality and look.


1. The Galley Kitchen


Perfect for a small space, the galley kitchen features two parallel countertops with a smooth flow. This layout, with strategically placed cabinets and appliances, contributes to efficiency without compromising its sleek, modern look. Our IKEA cabinet installers can help you get the most out of this configuration by placing cabinets with no gaps and getting the most storage solutions.


2. The L-Shaped Kitchen



Perfect for open-concept living spaces, the L-shaped kitchen is comfortable and has plenty of counter space. It is easily integrated with IKEA kitchen installation services with easy access to modular cabinets and clever storage possibilities. By adding corner solutions, pull-out organizers, and vertical storage, you can get the most out of every inch.


3. The U-Shaped Kitchen


A U-shaped kitchen is perfect for cooking aficionados. It consists of three cabinetry and counter walls that offer smooth workflow as well as ample storage. This configuration is complemented well by an IKEA kitchen renovation for a customized appearance with sleek organization that makes meal preparation easy.


4. The Island Kitchen


A kitchen island is functional and fashionable, creating a hub of cooking, eating, and gathering. This layout works particularly well with IKEA kitchen installation services, allowing you to customize your island with additional cabinets, seating, or even a built-in cooktop. It’s an excellent choice for those who love entertaining.


5. The Peninsula Kitchen


Similar to an island design but attached to a wall, the peninsula kitchen gives extra counter area with the open feel. This style will suit in small to medium-sized kitchens, and our IKEA cabinet installers can aid you to add top-notch, space-saving cabinetry to achieve more storage as well as flair.


Choosing the Perfect Layout for Your Home


The perfect kitchen design is founded upon your space, lifestyle, and design aesthetic. Require a mini solution like a galley kitchen or a massive U-shaped style? Our experts in IKEA kitchen remodeling at Forvana Kitchens are available to turn your dreams into realities.

What is Order Management?

By Aullivonne Ash • March 15, 2024
We stumbled upon our new Order Management service after hearing the frustration of ordering an Ikea kitchen from our clients. Are you familiar with purchasing things like furniture from Ikea? If you are then you know about all the boxes. Every piece is in it’s own box. Now when you purchase a kitchen from Ikea there are literally hundreds of boxes. And since covid there have been all kinds of global supply problems. For some reason Ikea has been hit extra hard. There once was a time when you went into an Ikea, purchased your kitchen and the entire kitchen was there. You brought it home and started assembling it that day. Those days are long gone. Now when you go to purchase your kitchen maybe 75% of it is there for you take home. And yes, you have to take it home that day or have it delivered. You purchase what is in stock and then you are handed a couple different pieces of paper with all the items that are not in stock. You see the picture above with the order information, that’s all the out of stock items for one kitchen. And now you are on your own to check online, everyday to see if any of your items have arrived, then make multiple trip to Ikea to pick up these stragglers. So while you find a spot to safely store all of these boxes somewhere in your home, you get the privilege of obsessing over the Ikea website for the next month or two waiting for the rest of kitchen to arrive. And you better click and collect those items because by the time you get to the store they could be sold out before the doors even open, it’s happened to me. Its complicated for me and I do it all the time. It can get really frustrating if you have never done it before.
