I thought it looked nice before, but it sure looks great afterward. I have a somewhat similar layout to your new kitchen, but your space is much bigger and your choices/finishes are more $$$ than mine. I am sure you have been thoroughly enjoying it.

At first I thought the 'before' was the after! The photos you posted look a lot like the pretty white kitchens you see so much now....plus white refrigerators are coming back in ;) Enjoy your new kitchen!

@Chrissy Torres, I am in the middle of a very similar kitchen redo. They just took the wall down today. Only difference is my space is a bit more narrow so we couldn't get an island down the middle and we are doing it at one end. Can I ask what backspash tile you chose and which cabinet hardware? I really love both! Searching Bocchi sink is what brought me to your post and I was wondering the use of all of the gadgets too and if it is worth it. I could see myself still using a regular strainer, cutting board, etc. Your kitchen is stunning!

Thanks Joseph. Had checked the install guideline and code, no issues there. The 3 burners that are 20k BTU are in front back burners are smaller, plus sufficient space around 8 -10 inches to wall. Thermador has a fan in back to dissipate heat.
