Hello! We're getting ready to kick off a kitchen renovation in our split level/split foyer home and I would appreciate any feedback! We will be removing a wall in the middle of the kitchen and adding an island. The kitchen will then be open to living and dining areas. Ceiling is 90in.

We cook quite a bit and have one kid. Would like space for casual entertaining.

Priorities:

Center the sink on the window(assuming it stays there).

Trash pullout

42" walkways preferred

Storage, there is no pantry, perhaps add pantry cab left of dishwasher.

Get rid of the orange pendant lights over our dining room.

Appliances:

30" slide in electric range, 24" dishwasher, over range microwave, 33" or 36" counter depth fridge, whatever fits best.

Below is a blank layout with measurements(taking out wall), ikea mockup, and before pics. Not married to ikea cabs, but considering.

Questions:

Is symmetry around the patio door important? Assuming dining table lights should be centered over table, which effects size of island.

Where to put lights in kitchen?
