The rule of 1.20 meters: what it means and what it means
Caballero lo summarized in a clear cifra: already 1,20
metros of not free alrededor de la
isla. No dealing with aesthetics, otherwise ergonomics y
security. This woman guarantees that a person
can move, turn, shelter doors and work without shocks or
forced postures.
If you don't have a continuous ring of 1.20 meters in torno a

Electrodomestics and circulation: where is your kitchen
The shock will come when the design does not know how to wear the items.
