Farmhouse plan with new kitchen layout
Comments (7)Marti- I know you've been through this whole 'dining table/seating area' debate, when you were designing your kitchen remodel and addition. So...when you asked me about moving the table, it gave me an idea! What if we put the table on the porch in the summer (with little seating area by the fireplace) and then swap them, in the winter? The table by the BBQ and with views out the back, makes sense when it's light until 9 pm. But, when it's dark at 4:30 pm, I'd rather have dinner by the warm fireplace. I'd still have the chair in the corner (by the fire) and a bench in front of the window...but the loveseat, table and chair could go out on the porch. It would be great to sit out on the porch (with a throw) and watch the snow fall :) What do you think? If we did that...I might put the island back in the kitchen. While I love the picture, I just went to a friend's house (with a table in the middle of the kitchen) and it was so short...it was driving me crazy! I was in another kitchen with table some time ago...and it was fine. Maybe because they had more prep space and we were sitting at the table, not standing. Sheesh! I feel a little foolish...since the kitchen forum warned me this might happen! LOL...See MoreSarah Richardson's Farmhouse Kitchen
Comments (39)What a happy thing to discover the designer of this fabric. I just Googled "telia fabric" and wow, the results were multitudinous! Thanks, Amy B, for sharing your knowledge. Here is the one I located online, probably the lavender colorway, because it looks like a wisteria to me. Fascinating to discover this series of fabrics based on old floral documents. Really like them. To find that particular fabric, I put into the search box "Harlequin fabric 9200"...See MoreKitchen design advice for small awkward layout in 1900 farmhouse
Comments (6)Maybe, push peninsula even further back to give more space within. keep chairs with people out of walk way. need panel on right side of microwave hood. Keep same spacing on both sides of window to keep balanced symmetry around window. Stoves that close to corner is not ideal. make sure fillers in corner are wide enough so drawers don't hit handles...See More1912 farmhouse/working farm. Kitchen layout struggle.
Comments (3)Please post a fully-measured layout of the space under consideration and a sketch of the entire floor. 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... 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.
