Bedok Residences Condo, the layout of the kitchen and common sense.
1. Please take a look at this kitchen layout plan.
2. Although the sink and stove should be "separate" or rather kept at a distance e.g. of around 60 cm if they are on one straight line;
3. In this layout = PH11; what was observed that the stove and sink are on separate islands. In theory this is good or excellent.
4. In this kitchen, just imagine after cooking and how one has to sometimes bring e.g. the wok for washing. This layout does not offer good flow.
5. Some owners have a habit of removing the kitchen door or changing it to a sliding door. Or for example, placing a "barn" type of door at the exterior wall of the kitchen.
5.1. One has to be extra careful when doing so. Due to common sense, as the stove is just at the edge of the kitchen opening; on a windy day; wind depending on where it blows from may be a safety hazard.
5.2. For example: if a person or child were to walk into the kitchen and if strong winds blow air towards the opening; then it can be dangerous.
5.3. If say, strong winds were to blow in from the kitchen (and it is a sliding door or no door at all); then the wind vortex may blow hot air to the person standing at the front of the stove.
6. There is a danger of "flame-out" at the stove especially if a regular gas stove is used. This would not occur with an electric stove or induction type.
