blind corner solution?

16 years ago

I have a 12x 12 kitchen and the dream of a big range (specifically a lacanche, probably the 40" cluny). It's been a few weeks since I posted a question about my kitchen-you guys gave me lots to think about last time. (I've also had some professional help...no , not psychiatric, but that may be needed before this is done!) Some elements of the overall plan have changed, and I'll update on the rest later, but right now I would love some input on an idea I have for my blind corner.

This is my corner-range on the south wall, with 16"+ "landing space" on either side. East wall will be the longest stretch of counter in the kitchen, and there will be open shelves on the 44.5" stretch of east wall. Under the counter I am planning to have a kitchen cart with storage, so that when needed it can come out to play island. (that's the 42" thing on the drawing.) Something like this:

but with something like this:

I was thinking I could do a pull-out in the blind corner, accessible only when the cart comes out, that would essentially bring shelves into the under-counter area. I could store my baking things under there, essentially having a part-time baking center.(ie where the cart usually lives) Does this make sense? I figure when I'm baking I'll want that extra counter space anyway. Does anyone have suggestions or pictures of a similar idea realized?
