What a kitchen layout planner does

A kitchen layout planner turns the most expensive room in your home from a guess into a plan. It lets you arrange cabinet runs, worktops, islands and walkways within your actual room — before you order a single unit. Measure Design's online kitchen planner goes further: it starts from your own photo and dimensions, so the kitchen floor plan you create fits your real walls, windows and doors, not a generic template.

How to plan a kitchen layout, step by step

  • •1. Start with your room — photograph your existing kitchen or enter your dimensions
  • •2. Choose a configuration — one-wall, galley, L-shaped, U-shaped or island — and let AI generate layout concepts for your space
  • •3. Position cabinets and worktops — move runs, adjust lengths and see what fits
  • •4. Check circulation — keep walkways clear and think about how you actually cook
  • •5. Refine the layout — swap surfaces, change finishes, iterate until it flows
  • •6. Visualise in 3D and AR — walk through the plan at true scale before committing
  • •7. Take it to suppliers and installers — turn the layout into real materials and quotes

Common kitchen layouts

  • •One-wall — all cabinets and appliances along a single wall; ideal for open-plan studio spaces
  • •Galley — two parallel runs facing each other; the most efficient use of a narrow room
  • •L-shaped — cabinets along two adjoining walls; opens up a natural dining area
  • •U-shaped — three walls of storage and worktop; the cook's classic for square rooms
  • •Island — an L-shape or one-wall layout plus a freestanding island; a sociable centrepiece for open-plan rooms

The best kitchen layout design depends on your room, not a trend. Narrow rooms suit galley and one-wall layouts; open-plan spaces carry L-shapes and islands; larger square rooms can handle a full U-shape. The kitchen design planner lets you compare configurations side by side in your own space, so you choose with evidence rather than instinct.

Planned around your actual room

Layout mistakes come from planning in the abstract. Because Measure Design reads your real room — window positions, door swings, ceiling height — the layouts it proposes respect what's actually there. Add your measurements for a more precise kitchen floor plan, and the AI kitchen design concepts keep your geometry intact while reimagining everything else.

Cabinets, worktops and storage

Once the configuration is right, fill it in: base and wall cabinets sized to your runs, worktop materials from real wood, stone and aluminium ranges, and storage arranged around how you cook. Swap finishes surface by surface, move a run, extend an island — every change updates the design so you can see the trade-off, not just read about it.

Islands, walkways and circulation

An island that blocks the door swing is an expensive ornament. As you plan, keep circulation honest: comfortable walkways around the work zones, clear paths between sink, hob and fridge, and enough space to open drawers and appliance doors. A 3D kitchen planner view makes these clearances obvious in a way a flat floor plan never can.

From layout plan to 3D and AR

A floor plan convinces your head; a walkthrough convinces your gut. Take any layout into the 3D kitchen planner to see it from every angle, then open AR on your phone and stand inside the room — checking sightlines, clearances and light at true scale. Only when the layout feels right do you move on.

From plan to build

A finished layout is only the start. Your plan connects directly to the rest of the platform: browse the real materials it specifies, request estimates from suppliers, and hand the layout to a vetted kitchen installer who can quote against a design that already fits your room. One journey, no rework between tools.
