Efficient design but counter space is limited and foot traffic can be disruptive. L-shaped 
No foot traffic crosses work triangle and lots of counter space. U-Shaped 
An island can be included if the U is big enough. G-Shaped 
Lots of counter space, can link to dining area with common counter surface. In larger kitchens an island can break up space. For good traffic flow islands should have at least 3 or 4 feet of aisle on each side. Never put an island in a kitchen where 2 points of the work triangle are on opposite walls as it will get in the way. Always remember your work triangle. Have a good week and we will talk soon...
