We just did a built-in microwave (in addition to over the range) - you can see the photos at this link: [https://www.houzz.com/discussions/lots-of-photos-kitchen-dining-and-living-room-remodel-dsvw-vd~3317868?n=12[(https://www.houzz.com/discussions/lots-of-photos-kitchen-dining-and-living-room-remodel-dsvw-vd~3317868?n=12) Not sure if that will help at all. Looking at your drawings, I think you could go either way. The microwave and cabinet will either be a part of the fridge section (walled in) or a part of the other cabinet section (not walled in). I'm leaning toward the bottom drawing where the appliances (fridge, oven, micro) are all walled in like on your bottom drawing. Good luck!

Thanks @bmwsuccess - I am also kind of leaning towards that. Your house looks amazing. Thanks for sharing.

I like the first - no wall around micro.
