Grey U-Shaped Kitchen with a Window Sink

The window-side sink is the anchor of this grey Hong Kong kitchen. Countertop surfaces run around three sides, and the hob sits on a neighbouring section rather than directly beneath the window. The cabinets turn into the end wall, with upper cupboards above the worktop and daylight entering over the washing area.

The grey fronts are relatively quiet, so the reflective work surface and the window do more of the visual work. The sink position gives a clear end point to the room, while the adjoining run keeps cooking and preparation within reach. Three cabinet sides leave a compact central floor for movement. This is a three-sided arrangement whose central passage and cabinet openings should be drawn to scale for a new room.

The window gives the sink a natural position at the end of the U, with cooking on the neighbouring side and drawers below the turning worktop. This leaves a short route between washing and the hob, but every base door opens toward the same central floor. In a comparable room, decide which utensils belong in those drawers and mark their openings alongside the hob and sink positions. The reflective counter and quiet grey fronts keep this arrangement visually lighter than the darker laundry-equipped U-shaped kitchen.

The cabinets around the window-side double sink have 304 stainless steel cabinet bodies, distinct from the three-sided steel worktop and separately specified grey front finishes.
