Kitchen Cabinet Design & Layouts in Pensacola
Free kitchen design starts with your room. Bring a floor plan, rough measurements, appliance dimensions and photos. We’ll use them as a starting point for a practical cabinet layout and estimate; final measurements are confirmed before ordering or fabrication.

Compare kitchen layouts
Compare the shapes below, then let’s adapt the right starting point to your room, appliances and daily routine.
Check working aisles and walkways
A working aisle serves cooking, preparation and cleanup. A walkway carries people through the room. Plan both, including room for open drawers and appliance doors.
Find your kitchen’s shape
Simplified overhead diagrams show cabinet and countertop arrangements. Illustrations are not to scale.
01
U-shaped kitchen
Three connected cabinet runs
Three connected runs provide generous cabinet and worktop space.
Plan for: Plan corner access and enough room between opposing cabinets.
02
G-shaped kitchen
A layout with a peninsula
A connected peninsula adds another work surface and may offer seating.
Plan for: Keep the entrance open and check traffic around the peninsula.
03
Island kitchen
A separate island
A separate island can add preparation space, storage or seating.
Plan for: Allow circulation on every side and check appliance-door clearance.
04
Galley kitchen
Two parallel cabinet runs
Parallel cabinet runs make efficient use of a long or narrow room.
Plan for: Balance working space with through traffic and opposing appliance doors.
05
One-wall kitchen
Simple and space-conscious
Cabinets and appliances share one wall, keeping the rest of the room open.
Plan for: Make the most of tall storage and preserve useful preparation space.
06
L-shaped kitchen
Two adjoining cabinet runs
Two adjoining runs create an open layout with flexible dining options.
Plan for: Plan the corner carefully; an island only works when the room allows it.
Storage with purpose

Keep everyday dishes, cookware and food storage near the places you use them. Ask about options for your selected cabinet style.
- Deep drawers for cookware and everyday essentials.
- Pantry and tall utility cabinets.
