Comments (9)The house is beautiful as it is, I mean stunningly beautiful and I'm sure when the "sold" sign went up on it there were a lot of people who love modern homes that cried. In a spirit of honesty that only one netcitizen can say to another -- work with the house not against it. Or at least live with it for a while and see if you don't fall in love with it the way it is and then come up with changes that will enhance it instead of making it embarrassed to show it's face in public. I think the fact that you are a traditional girl who's fallen for a modern home has the makings of a really great love story -- but only if you can love it for who it is and not by trying to change to be something it's not and never will be....See MoreHelp with Kitchen layout - ARG design, appliance layout
Comments (31)Doug already knows my views about cooktops on islands. So, I didn't share it when critiquing the original design. My opinion only, but putting a cooking surface on the island is a decision of last resort. Both safety and efficiency are compromised by this type of arrangement. I think the Buehl's idea of using that beautiful front window area for dining is inspired. It would get you and additional 28 sq.ft. in the kitchen. That's not chump change. That front window would be a lovely spot to sit with a cup of coffee and watch the kids. The light would be glorious. Seriously consider moving the kitchen to the rear, moving the dining room to take advantage of the window and sew/craft in the now freed up space in the front of the house, The old dining room in front could be used for a flex room/library/study/extra bedroom for overflow guests/sewing room/home office. Like Doug will tell you, everything is a compromise. Every decision effects another decision. It's just a question of how many comprises you have to make....See MoreKitchen layout kitchen design tiny kitchen
Comments (4)Hmmm interesting. First, I would highly recommend making your counter deeper on at least the wall with the sink. This will maximize your prep space. I grew up in a home with a VERY small kitchen, but the counters were 6" deeper than normal, so I never really felt cramped while cooking. You can simply have the contractor build a 1x4 or 1x6 frame against the wall, install the cabinets against that, and then run the counters over the whole thing. This will also help you feel like you have more headroom, since the upper cabinets won't be as close to your face. Hopefully the window placement will allow for this, although you can always step one narrow cabinet and the counters back to normal depth to allow for the window if necessary. I would also probably consider putting the range and fridge on the same wall, and the sink/DW on the other. I would not center the sink on its wall, and make sure to have the largest amount of empty opposite the range. This will also maximize the space you have for prep....See More- 6 years ago
