no rules on faucets..why dont you go to the store and put the faucet on a sink, and step back and lookatit planning your sink and valves is kinda a personal thing that no one can say your wrong or right...which opens the door for people like me that will put yellow tile and bright green paint togather, and think it looks good... step backand look at it,,listen to your inner self

Your disposals could also be partially clogged. When my DW is backing up in the sink, I turn on the disposal for a moment and it starts to drain. Cleaning the disposal periodically by running a dozen or so ice cubes through it helps to keep it clean.

“Any thoughts on 18" front to back vs. 19"?!” @kel_kat5 - the sink’s front-to-back measurement can be important depending on how much room you’ll have behind your sink for the faucet. There have been a number of occurrences of people installing a sink, and then finding there isn’t enough room for the faucet, or for the faucet handle to move fully. This can be more the case in front of a window. Many people with this issue get a faucet in which the handle can be moved to the front, rather than be on one side. An advantage to this is that dripping hands on the handle don’t leave water all over the counter. For my next kitchen, I am doing this with my faucet, even if I have plenty of space. I am always cleaning mineral deposits and soap scum on the counter directly under the faucet handle where wet hands drip. Here is a thread about it: https://www.houzz.com/discussions/2442104/positioning-single-handle-kitchen-faucet

We are doing a similar design. For us it's all about natural light. Our windows face East and we want as much morning sun as possible. The windows will look onto a deck/courtyard which is across from the master bedroom (u-shaped house). So it's not out looking at the back yard greenery but we will make the courtyard area colorful with potted plants and such. The windows are 36"x3= 108" This other picture is my inspiration picture. Those windows face East as well and look out to the side yard - essentially a fence. But it's about the natural light that comes in. Those windows are 32"x4 = 128".
