Everything in the space can go. Yes, even the folding table. Storage is the name of the game.

The space for the TABLE is 72" along the wall, from the single panel door (laundry room) left to the back of the sofa (open floor plan) and 122" to the kitchen. This does NOT include space/walkway from the laundry room door to the slider. Specific needs:

1. dining table. Even with our small space, we host dinners for 8-10 people regularly so an extension table is a must. I was thinking a 60"-72" table that extends to 90"+. This may seem big for the space but the table triples as a craft station for our 3 year old on the weekends and my work station during the day. We turn the table perpendicular to the slider when we host more than 6 people. Our interior style is fairly transitional and I would love a taper round leg table but have not found one that meets our requirements (including less than $1500). I am thinking the Mid CenturyTable Expandable Table from West Elm but am worried the style will stick out but I love the look of the table. I am totally stumped about chairs.

2. The space to the right of the slider. I want to replace the blue cabinet with something that will provide us with a little more counter space but not stick into the room. I am thinking an angle end base cabinet, that is counter height, painted in case I can't find a good match to the kitchen cabinets (maybe navy but I am up for suggestions) with faux feet to make it look like a stand alone cabinet and add a butcherblock top. And 2 or 3 shelves above the cabinet. Any thoughts? I would prefer something with doors for the base (less to dust).

3. To the left of the slider, I would like to put a few plants but am not sure if I will need more storage. A corner hutch is an option but the space may feel larger with an open corner. We will have cabinets in the laundry room for some additional storage.

Thanks for any input!

Fridge will be replaced with a french door fridge.
