Comments (17)Theresa - Thanks for more pictures of your Kitchen! That is a nice island! Do you find you prep more on the island or next to the stove? artistsharonva - Thanks for the suggestions, but with the way I work in a kitchen I just can't seem to see them working for me. I like a good stretch of counter space between sink and stove or to have the sink very near the counter I'm working at. I guess I wonder why everyone wants the island to be clear? I mainly want seating at the island because I often have to help my kids with homework and I spend a lot of time at the sink so I'd like to have it facing out to where they will be. This is also why I have never considered a range in the island. They're too young and I'd worry about paper on the stovetop. In my plan I'd mostly prep on that back wall, though if I were doing something like making PB&J for the kids I might do that on the island. Then I see the counter that is off to the side under the window for extra prep if another person is helping me, or where the things like like to end up on the counter can go. For instance my DH plopped down his crock he makes pickles in on my counter last week saying he was going to empty it this weekend. He didn't and it's still taking up valuable space right now. He does that kind of thing a lot so if I had a counter he could do that on and it doesn't interfere with my daily prepping/cooking/cleaning that would be awesome! I did tweak my draft to move the garbage cabinet to the other side so there is counter on either side of the sink. I originally didn't have it because I was trying to put the fridge where the stove currently is and there wasn't room then when I moved it to the back wall I tacked it on to add length. I think I'd have to decide where I'd want the dishes (by the fridge or along the side wall) before I decided for sure which side I'd want the DW on. I need to draw this out on graph paper I think to make sure my sizes and distances are accurate. I think I have about 4' between back counter and island right now and about 47"/48" on either side of the island and 4' between the island back corner and the bench/lockers....See MoreWhat do I need to know about grout for glass tile?
Comments (2)Something like Bostic Dimensions will allow the glass tile to sparkle. Many people are disappointed when grout fills in the spaces, as it blocks the light that entered from the tile edges. The tile looks duller, and less lively. This is a special order grout, so likely not available off the shelf anywhere. The talk about grout should already have been had with your installer, and he should have made several suggestions to you. If you want a special order grout, and I would, it will impact his schedule, because it isn't off the shelf. It's not inexpensive, but it's what really makes a glass install shine. Pun intended. https://www.bostik.com/us/Bostik-products/dimension-rapidcure-urethane-glass-tile-grout...See MoreWhat do I need to do know about interior windows?
Comments (15)Thanks everyone, so, it is a condo, so exterior windows aren't an option (I don't think our upstairs neighbors would enjoy having a skylight into our bathroom in their living room). using the bathroom during a dinner party I was thinking using the toilet, not a shower the red is just the wall that will have the door leading into the enclosed bathroom the wet room is a toilet and shower but that is what we're taking OUT here are the current dimensions with the vanity in the open and the bath/toilet wetroom and vanity in the loft with a pony wall to the left if your facing the mirror Here is the proposed design that walls off the bathroom into one larger unit. So while I appreciate the design advice, and I admit it's a little strange, I just need to know what I need to price out the correct window to make my decision. Does it need to open? Do we need glass that better deals with heat transfer? If we DO do the window should we stretch the window to the door for a more picture window look? thank you!...See MoreDed tired
