kitchen design - small u-shaped kitchen
Here is the current layout of my kitchen. I would like to open up the wall where the stove is as basically a peninsula - the adjoining room is the dining room. The door that swings in to the kitchen goes to the garage. The issue is that the lower corner cabinets really limit the layout, as they come in limited sizes. I want the upper and lower cabinets to be symmetrical (if that makes sense)

hace 5 añosI'm just trying to get more light in the kitchen, and also open it up. I live alone, but when my kids come to visit, I'd like there to be room to talk to people in the kitchen. Here is a similar idea.
the problem that I'm having in laying out the cabinets is that the space available is only 6'9" with corners.

hace 5 añosHere's my interpretation of GreenDesigns's great suggestion.
Structural changes: the DR wall is mostly removed and the LR entry is relocated. Everything else stays as it currently is.
I moved the range to the garage wall, as GD recommended, moved the DW to the left side of the sink and swapped out the full size fridge for a counter depth (CD) model. This plan won't work without a CD fridge. A full size fridge would eat up too much aisle.
I added a peninsula out from the LR wall. That avoids dealing with another corner cabinet and gives you a little more breathing room between peninsula and table.
The shallow cabinet on the backside of the island can be used for pantry goods.
Mayer Ct- Addition/ Remodel · Más informaciónI drew in a DR table and suggested aisles. 40 1/2" is a bit on the lean side (44" is recommended aisle for seating for people to walk past) but since that's not really a main pathway, I think it's doable.
The table is not centered in the DR; will that bother you? If it does, opt for a 36" wide table. That will give you 41" aisles between it and the wall and 49 1/2" aisle between table and peninsula.
You should consider adding toe kick drawers to gain more storage space. Here they are in scrappy25's kitchen:
Another way to gain storage is to create a banquette with storage cabinets on each side of it in the DR. Like this:I spec'd a 36" wide table but with this set-up, you can easily extend it to 84" or a bit longer and have adequate aisles at the end of it.
Here's how the banquette area might look (but with the table running the other way)
