Hello!

We're in the midst of a kitchen/mainfloor reno and we need some help deciding on 2 cabinet layouts. We're open to moving/resizing the window, but we still want a window along the wall for the visibility into the back.

If you have any thoughts on which layout you'd lean towards and why, we'd greatly appreciate it!

Additionally, we're keen on elevating the design beyond standard builder-grade aesthetics to something more unique and luxe if possible. Any ideas on how to achieve this would be fantastic!

Our main goal for this reno is to open up the kitchen to the living room and small dining area, creating a more spacious and family-friendly environment. Our ceiling height is 8 feet.

Thank you for any input you can offer!
