Kitchen Pass-through help
Hello! I am gutting my tiny nyc galley kitchen. It’s small but extremely efficient with actually decent storage and I kind of like how it is closed off from the rest of the apartment vs full open concept. I also didn’t want to get rid of that wall fully and lose my uppers.
We are gutting the kitchen though, and so I asked my contractor to open the passthrough up a bit especially by making the counter the same level on both sides so I have a little more working space. He has opened it up but now it’s off center….. I am going to talk to him about it tomorrow and I’m sure there may be some reasoning like gas lines or something but I guess what can I do if that’s the reasoning? Do I close it back up on the left? Or am I only noticing it because of the sconces? We wanted to get rid of the sconces but we do really need lighting there so we’re just going to change them for something newer, not remove them completely….
Thank you in advance!
