Kitchen window and outlet dilemma

Doing a build (Houston) and I need the opinions of experts.


I want a large run of windows behind my Apron sink and 18' run of counter.


Should I do the Windows at counter height?





Or should I do the windows 4-6 inches backsplash above the counter to make room for outlets?





If I went with window at the counter height, what would I do about outlets? In kitchens, electrical outlets should be placed no farther than 48 inches apart according to code. I don't want to "bump out" and make deep window sills, for sake of the exterior aesthetics of the home.


Anybody design a window at the counter height?

Do you like it?

Is it annoying to maintain? or no big deal?

What did you do for outlets?

Do you wish you had a backsplash?

Would you do it all over again?
