dc.description.abstractThis design project will focus on remodeling a kitchen for an elderly person. The kitchen that is going to be remodeled has a peninsula or G-shaped layout design. The new design that will be introduced aims to save time in the food preparation process with minimal effort. It also seeks to correct the areas that cause discomfort and further expand the spaces, discarding the areas saturated with unused cabinets to get a more comfortable workflow. To obtain the expected results, the preparation of a dish will be analyzed to study the movements and the execution time of each process by applying measurement methods to find waste. In addition, ergonomic evaluations will be carried out in the sink area due to discomfort during cleaning tasks. The DMADV (Define, Measure, Analyze, Design, Verify) methodology will be used as a tool to mitigate the problems encountered and implement the ideal kitchen design in order to save time, and energy and obtain the necessary comfort when performing tasks.
