I feel like I’m close to a working layout but not confident with it
I’m happy I’ve incorporated lots of half depth pantry storage in the left which allows the island to remain a decent size with 1m clearance around it.
The integrated fridge and integrated freezer left of the oven means all the food storage is together and easier for unloading. There is a bin in the island near the fridge for food packaging etc. I decided against American fridges as I don’t like the way they stick out so much and that would not work in the corner at all. I also like that there is a walkway infront of the fridge for regular access. I don’t like that we won’t be able to have a plumbed ice/water dispenser on it though. Why don’t they make more 600mm deep American fridge options?
The oven had a landing zone to the right and behind on the island. And will be Neff slide away doors.
The hob will be induction and double up as a flat surface as needed when not in use but I would like more space either side of it was possible; but I can’t see how unless we went to a single fridge/freezer which is too small for our family of 4.
I’ve gone with wide drawers in the island and more below the hob worktop.
The dishwasher is near the sink and areas for crockery/cutlery storage.
This sink just seems to work under the window well; and there is a second bin to the right of the sink
I don’t especially want wall cabinets, but it makes sence to have at least one for classes and mugs for hot drinks from the integrated instant boil tap at the sink.
I’m not sure about the pantry unit on the right and may swap that for a wall cupboard or remover completely. I did consider putting an American fridge there between the windows and patio doors, but it’s a long way from the opposite wall pantry and is then snack in your eye-line as you walk in the door
The island ends up 1900 wide and 1200 deep including the 300mm seating overhang.
I’m just not sure where it can be improved. Seems like plenty of storage. I’ll probably remove the blind corner units and just block them off.
Just wish I could make more space for the hob and narrow up the oven/fridge bank somehow without compromising space for the island.
Any thoughts or obvious errors?
