It's difficult to read the details, but I think on the back wall...it's wall ovens on the right, baking area in the middle and is that a pantry on the left?

If it's fridge, range on the one side and sink with dishwasher on the other side, it looks great! Can you have a slightly bigger window over the sink? The prep sink on the island works so well with the rest of your layout and 42" should be plenty of space for the aisle. I like the cookbooks on the end of the island :)

The breakfast room seems a little close to the stools, but since it's drawn in, I'm hoping you'll have enough room to walk between the chairs and stools, when people are seated there.

Nice plan!

Hi,

Thank you! I know it is difficult to read, but the best I could provide for this site.

Actually, good eye, we have already decided to make the window over the sink much larger - about 5 to 6 ft. of window space. The dining area is drawn in and not to scale. Thanks again!

You kitchen layout is what I think of as 'classic GW' since it has the cleaning area close, but the main work area is the fridge, range and prep sink. The baking area is not too far away, but in its own space...and you have plenty of room around the island. I'm sure you'll get lots of positive feedback :)

Basically, good job! Things that I have to say are fairly small.

Its maybe not the best positioning for a roll out pantry. It both opens across a doorway. Possibly it is a little cramped in the aisle when the rollouts are extended. I'd like to be in front of them, not to the side.

It seems like it would be a little weird to get stuff from the pantry onto the island. Pick something up and backup a couple of steps sideways, then turn around?

I would think about maybe moving the pantry next to the ovens. Or reversing the ovens and pantry.

Comfortable stools and table dining means that there should be at least 5 feet between the counter edge and the table edge to allow for room for both sets of seating to be in use at the same time with enough space for someone to be able to get into and out of a chair or stool in the center.

The end of the island towards the clean up sink doesn't need anything really decorative - its one of those things that looks good in elevations, but it can't be seen in real life. There is just no perspective on it from the sides. It would be one thing if it was in an important vista, but as positioned, it won't read. I'm at that place where every open cabinet is another opportunity to dust that I don't need.

In exchange, I'd rather have each cabinet facing into the cooking aisle be a little wider, finish with either a plain or decorative end panel.

Or an end panel plus a small shelving unit only on the seating end.
Or a built-in paper towel holder above a tilt out bin for recycling.
Or plain shallow depth cabinet with a door to store more brightly colored liquor products - can't have enough of those!

This one is really personal, but I would move the prep sink towards the cleanup sink just a little - so there was about 18" of counter on the end. I would like to sit down things that came out of the ref or out of the pantry.

Any ref that has double doors means that the best landing space is behind you as you stand in front of it (turn around, sit it down and turn back). It's too far to reach to either side, so you'd have to walk/walk back. I'd like to place pantry items there too.

It brings up a design alternative that I'd at least draw, which is nicknamed "wall of tall" - the ovens, pantry and ref go together on the wall where you've currently drawn the ovens. Ovens in corner, then larger pantry cabinet, then ref. Extend the island a bit towards the "wall of tall" and do a baking area where the ref used to be.

Why you might like it is that the kitchen should feel more open without the big ref taking center stage.

bmore,

Thank you for all your well-thought out suggestions. We will certainly take them under consideration.

Thanks again!
