      Really depends where the fridge is… Triangle is optimal, but if the fridge and sink both require walking around that counter it’s gonna get annoying fast.

      Also lets them have a little breakfast area as well.

      Seems like the most efficient use of space to me.

        It looks like a good use of space if you have never really used a kitchen before. Very difficult to use in any real world cooking scenario.

        There should be laws stopping people who don’t use kitchens from designing them. I see so many terrible choices like this.

          Oh fucking please.

          The sink situation is easily solved with either filling up that kettle, or using a stock pot. The fridge being out of frame means you’re not having to go around the partial island.

          This is a nice utilization of an awkward space. The stove placement means you don’t have to teach young and/or stupid housemates ‘hot behind’ because there’s space for both mis en place and to set a hot dish, in a way that doesn’t mean someone has to scooch behind you and bumping butts.

          This is far from the worst design this room layout could have and is actually pretty damn smart given the layout.

      Turn oven 90° counterclockwise, counter along the wall left of the oven instead of where it is now.

      Bonus: You can now have storage above the counter!

    1. Tear out that oven, hood, and the extended counter to its right.

    2. Replace with new oven and hood, rotated 90° so they’re facing into the kitchen.

    3: STRIP OFF THAT FUCKING PAINT.

    1. Wood stain newly cleaned wood.

    That’s an… odd… placement. I do like the counter immediately next to the stove like that, but, yeah … no.

    The window should be a bit closer to us, the sink should be by the new window placement, the stove should be 1/2 width to the left of where the dishwasher is, the dishwasher should be to the left of the new sink placement and where the stove currently is should be walled in and converted to a pantry.

    It looks weird, but I like it for practicality. It opens up the rest of the space when you’re cooking and gives you a nice counter area right beside you. I also like the ugly green.

      Yeah I currently have the sink between me and my counter, so I’m chopping veggies on the opposite side of the kitchen from where I’m sauteing them. This would be great for my use case.

      Assuming you didn’t knock your hip while rounding the corner and spilling them everywhere!
