Larry's Ideas
Not sure about the backsplash but like large door pulls.
Alcove bench seating that could be at end near stairs , blue accents nice.
For side wall only with no top cupboards and no backsplash.
Sort of looks like what you propose, gray not such a bad color with a white quartz countertop.
entry into kitchen only making it square instead of arch.
I really like this blue cabinetry white apron sink gold or copper faucet and door handles then a brushed gas stove. BUT is this dating you?
I like that the pendant lights over the island don't scream "look at me".
Kind of like, would you have a large scale quartz as backsplash to match counter and island tops?
Interesting hardwood flooring like we have running into wood base cabinet then a white quartz countertop along with the blue backsplash and white cupboards ( not glass fronts ). Just not sure if I like or not.
We will need the microwave up so no bending over for one.
For the pantry big roll out selfing
Not blue and not gray kind of a mixture might like.
yes that was the window framing we liked, see how cabinets on either side accent the curve?
So here is a whacky idea to tear out the corner curio cabinet and over the stairwell, you have open shelves near the ceiling and bring up the stairwell wall about 4-6inches, then you make bench seating in an L over to the pantry with storage under the seats. You could eliminate two chairs and increase seating by putting the table up to the benches????
Yes they have done gray cabinets and white counter tops we like that.
Now a thought pops up when I see the archway into the kitchen, we could do a 13 inch drop going into ours only making it square to match the entry into the living room. It would mean extending the little wall running from living room to kitchen out 10 inches but no extensive ceiling repair where we have cut back the wall behind the fridge.
Maybe microwave goes on a shelf like this over next to fridge??
We never talked about where the microwave goes if we put in a large hood fan?
Sort of what we would have for island, Linda leaning toward a white with black lines quartz top.
We like this with the cupboards split and even like the gray finish!!!!
I have an idea about a barn door over the entry into the "closet" in far corner???
How would it look in our kitchen to hav a different color from top cupboards to the lower base cabinet?
A person could do this along the pantry wall keeping it to the 16 inches except for like three feet in the left corner and coming out 24 inches then floor to ceiling cupboards.
Layered lighting , not sure how that works.
Lots and lots of storage ...no cutting board needed.
A good hardworking sink that large pans can go into is a must have.
Would need a separate pull out for the garbage if had the drawers under the sink??
For the dining room wall but not with the big closet affair on this end.
Gets a lot closer to what I think "she" wants on dining room wall. Probably not full ceiling to counter top cabinets and of course "broom closet on far left.
And behind the bookcase we find a pantry.
Make more windows from counter top at peninsula to slider for more natural light???
Glass front shelves, can't see what bottoms are like.
Oh! Sure tear off the roof put a second story on and create stair case up....but do like the "look".
Dining room wall idea, leave open area for dog crate under the double door "broom closet", and match top glass doors all around kitchen.
dining room wall idea??
Wall with open area in middle between cabinets??
Only a thought for dining room wall, leaving space under far left open for dog grate and "broom close"t next to it.
Thinking of dining room wall so no stove but space on wall behind where stove was could be central picture area and at end where glass cabinet would be "broom closet". Something for Linda to look at???
This idea for back wall that has the stove putting the microwave next to the range hood and the fridge next to microwave on end in the corner??
Keep looking at the black finished appliances, saw a GE at Freds but thinking more for all gas instead of dual fuel.
We are not a fan of wire shelves or spice holders.
Would be a great idea for in that "broom closet"
Another garage under cabinet idea that could house toaster and mini blender along with coffee
Would we want or need a light in the pantry??
I am liking this color
