01
What fits in 480 × 340 cm
This example keeps the essential appliances and lets storage take what remains, which is the honest order for a small room. Cabinet sizes are real and do not shrink with the room, so the plan shows genuine trade-offs: every added unit takes width from another. Resize the room in the editor and watch which units stop fitting.
02
Balance navy with white oak
This example keeps the deeper navy on the upper cabinets and lets the white oak grain ground the lower run. That order keeps the darker colour at eye level without closing in the worktop. Try the reverse split in the editor if your room gets little daylight, and compare both from the doorway before deciding.
03
Check the gaps before adding more
In a small U-shaped room the walking gap is the layout. Review it with appliance doors and drawers open, keep tall units where they do not block the entrance sightline, and prefer one well-placed tall unit over several shallow ones competing for the same wall.
Questions before you start
Are these the minimum dimensions for this layout?
No. The room is an illustrative example. What fits depends on your appliances, openings and how the room is used.
Can I start from this size and change it?
Yes. Open the example, enter your measured width and depth, and rearrange; the cabinets keep their real sizes throughout.
The front elevation
Review the main wall’s cabinet heights, appliance spaces and finish balance. Other walls are available in the editor.
