The cooktop is not well placed in either design, but I'm going to go with smashed against the wall ovens (design #2), because I prefer a cabinet for glasses and countertop space next to my fridge for ease of pouring, and design #1 would necessitate my keeping glasses in the wall oven to achieve that.

I'm not able to offer pro kitchen advice, but I'd personally consider losing the wall ovens and doing a nice range instead. That way, it could be moved a smidge to the right and gain a little more elbow room for cooking. Definitely keep the range hood by that outside wall, which is a way more effective placement for ventilation than a hood over an island or penninsula.

I'd place the cooktop in the island on number 2.

Both have significant issues...if I had to choose one, it would the second - but only grudgingly since neither are very functional. I think you can do much better than either of those.

Could you please post a fully measured layout of the space as well as a sketch of the entire floor the Kitchen is on? Both can be either hand-drawn, computer generated, or drawn up with computer/app tools.

By "fully-measured", I mean a layout with the widths of each wall/window/door/doorway and the distances between each wall/window/door/doorway labeled. See a sample below. If something cannot be moved or changed, label it precisely on your layout (see post in sample) and tell us why it cannot be moved/changed -- we may have some ideas for you.

The sketch of the entire floor lets us see how the Kitchen relates to the rest of the home. It doesn't have to be to-scale, but it should accurately show how the rooms relate to each other and should include all interior & exterior doors. In addition, it will help us see how traffic flows in, around, and through the Kitchen. Label the front entry and family entry. The family entry is usually a garage or side entry, but it might not be. It's helpful to know which door you use to bring in groceries.

Regardless of how you draw it up (by hand, computer, etc.), please be sure all measurements are labeled. (Note: Computer generated layouts often lack key measurements and, sometimes, measure to/from things like the middle of a wall or the middle of a window. Neither are useful. Measure each item and the distances between each item.)

Other questions...

• Tell us about you and your family and how you plan to use your Kitchen. All-adults? Empty Nesters? Children (now or in the future)?
• What appliances (& their sizes) do you plan to have?
• Where are you flexible? Can walls/windows/doors/doorways change (move, change size, add, delete)?
• Do you have a basement under the Kitchen or are you on a slab?

The above and more are discussed in the Layout Help FAQ.

Layout?

Number 1 has a much more efficient work triangle.

YMMV if you are a intensive baker, but I would use two ovens only once or twice a year - and for holiday roasts I prefer a portable $60 Nesco roaster. Counter space I would use nearly every day, and the visual space unblocked by a double oven cabinet I would appreciate every time I was in the kitchen.

This is what I would do
