Thesis tries to determine, if the Slovenian serial kitchen manufacturers produce kitchens, which are dimensionally adapted to most of the users. Data of serial kitchen producers were obtained first, then the anthropometric data of Slovenians (women and men) organised by age groups were gathered. Only the data referring to students of Ljubljana in 1992 were found. Therefore, we had to use data of English people (women and men), which were compared with the data of Slovenians. Based on these data, we draw 3D models of kitchens and also 3D models of a man in all 3 age groups. According to our research, only 1 of the producers meet the needs or dimensions of Slovenians, since both, the operating height of the counter as well as the upper limit range and reach of the hands, suit most to Slovenian customers. For the rest of the producers, we propose a new concept of kitchens.
