Kitchen design - symmetry around window

7 years ago
last modified: 7 years ago

I have an issue, the contractor just informed us that a light switch will need to get installed next to the fridge which will move everything little to the right. Original design of my kitchen shows the cabinets being somewhat spaced evenly next to the window (picture 1/2). With this new update, we will lose a cabinet on the bottom and the upper cabinets get moved 5 inches closer to the window, which makes things uneven (picture 3). I'm concerned about this looking aesthetically weird and off next to the window... but I'd like a second opinion.


The new adjustment makes sense functionally. The switch for the kitchen lights would be next to a door that leads outside and near the dining room entrance. However, the door that leads outside is not used very often and there is a more frequently used door that leads into the kitchen which has a switch that I can see being used more. I'm wondering if I should just relocate the switch next to the fridge to be under the microwave so that the layout remains?


Thoughts and opinions welcomed! Please help!
