kitchen layout ideas
Comments (8)An idea, one of many. First I've widened the utility to 150cm, so the toilet could rotate and thus be narrower, which allowed a wider utility. All this would 'cost' you 30cms of kitchen. L-shaped kitchen with fridge and oven on the side (personally I prefer built in fridges, but in your scetch is an american model, right?), turned the nibs into a cupboard (glass doors? some lights in there?). Peninsula without stools, the shallow units make up for the lack of uppers (one upper unit next to the hob, not shown in my floorplan). Added some extra units on the left wall, but a buffet would probably look nicer. (to return a favour paypal.me/rinkedit)...See MoreKitchen layout ideas?
Comments (11)Yes, much better :) I like the utility opening up from the kitchen. I agree with CWD about converting that window (EDIT: in the new utility room) into a door. Maybe a sliding door, if possible, to save space on the door swing. I also agree with generally converting existing doors into windows, and window into doors, where suitable. I also don't think it makes sense to keep the old larder/WC. The location and dimensions aren't practical and it interferes with getting an optimal kitchen. As for the hob, it isn't nearly as practical, clean, or safe, on the island as having it against the wall, especially given such a spacious kitchen! I might consider a "prep" sink on the island to get a comfortable Fridge->sink->hob work triangle, although two sinks require more plumbing and maintenance than one. The fireplace on the original plan, is that still there? Or are you planning to remove it? I do like how you positioned your dining table with the bench against the wall....See MoreKitchen layout ideas
Comments (15)Thank you for your concerns and condolences. What response? I don't believe I have said anything disrespectful to anyone, and indeed I am grateful for advice of others. Yes, I did start a new thread, but I thought because my question here was about the layout of a kitchen - eg where to put the cabinetry/appliances, that it needed a new thread under a new subject (kitchen). I wasn't asking here about the layout of the wider house. This question was specific to the kitchen layout. I like the idea of having a pantry. I am sure a layout can be achieved that still offers a pantry space. I want to install cabinetry in it and a marble top. We do a lot of hosting and I have a small confectionary business, so the pantry is ideal and it's something I've always dreamed of. It's essential to the plans. For context, before we moved in we had big plans, which I talked about on a different thread, but we have recently decided to do less. The death of my father has changed my perspective on life and I would rather we did minimal work to the house so we can spend the equity from the sale of our previous house on living and enjoying life. I don't want to plough loads into the building. That said, we don't have the luxury of waiting. Dad died the day before we completed on our purchase and we had to move in. And the house is literally a time capsule to 1955 when you open the door. It needs rewiring, new plumbing, new windows, new doors, has asbestos. We cannot wait. We have to get started as soon as possible as we can't live with boxes piled up for long. Several of the rooms don't have any electric points at all! Alas, onwards and upwards. I'm sure a plan that suits our needs will materialise in time. Thanks again for any offered advice....See MoreKitchen Layout ideas please ?
