        "text": "You should redesign your kitchen layout if the current footprint causes traffic bottlenecks, lacks prep space, or separates the cook from adjoining living areas. Common warning signs include appliance doors hitting each other when opened, inadequate clearance around the refrigerator, or a sink positioned too far from the cooktop. When existing storage cannot accommodate your household or you want to combine closed-off rooms into an open-concept space, reconfiguring the layout provides a functional solution that new finishes alone cannot solve.",
