I love this arrangement. What is the rule for spacing between island with barstools and a dining table with chairs where they are back to back? I have a similar layout and it's a main thoroughfare into the kitchen. My island is 110"x50" and it's currently about 48" away from the corner dining table.
Thanks!!

    Thank you. There's no "rule" per say, as each space is different. I star with about six feet and adjust as needed through design development. This image is six. Good luck!

    Trying to get an idea of how wide the breakfast area is. What is the dimension between the edge of island to the window? and what is the width of the walkway between breakfast table and island? Thanks!
