kitchen remodel- need help with layout. Strange layout currently.
Comments (1)I am not sure where the walled in heater is that you are referring too. Attached would be a nice layout for your space. Ref= Refrigerator R=Range DW= Dishwasher C=rolling cart...See MoreHelp with kitchen remodel layout
Comments (4)I may try to do a floor plan although at this stage we're starting to hunt for a designer anyway. I'm one of those who can't make much sense of the flat floor plan; I need the 3D to imagine myself in the space. This is a truly weird set-up--so much empty square footage to work with it's like a church reception hall, as someone said to me once. I can just picture all the casseroles lined up on the counter. The strange angles are so problematic....See MoreNeed help with Kitchen Layout/Design for a gut remodel job - thanks!
Comments (7)Thanks @AnnKH - good questions... What I disliked about the kitchen before was it was a galley type kitchen but with an island that literally felt like it blocked the fridge and sink for me. I used to hit my hip on the island countertop all the time to reach the sink and it was super annoying. So I'd like an open layout this time and have one large island with the sink in it so I have a simple triangle or oven, sink and fridge with nothing in between. I like the idea of putting dishes away easily and having the fridge and sink near each other too. The kitchen did feel dark but we already took down the wall to the family so there's a 13' opening and the family room is flooded with light. We also opened up the hallway to the living room to get light from there too. I'm not sure adding another window would do much b/c that side of the house just doesn't get as much light. I would definitely love a breakfast nook because it was awkward to make our food and then take everything to the dining room. I love separate dining for formal events...but I want casual dining for everyday. That way if someone wants ketchup, they can just pop up and grab it!...See MoreSink and range on same wall - kitchen remodel layout help!!
Comments (8)Even with that change, you won't have enough room for seating at the island if you want to keep the cabinets on the refrigerator wall too. Do you need the island seating with the kitchen table right next to it? The easiest way would be to put cabinets or shelves where the knee space is instead. If you really want the island seating, you'll need to reduce the cabinets on the wall there to 12" or so, which will give you a 53" aisle--still very tight (and less than is recommended) for seating, with a not terribly useful depth for the pantry cabinets. It seems like a big cost when the kitchen table is right there....See MoreKaren Loll
