Been working on this for a while and think I’ve finally got the floor plan and design flushed out. But scared I’m missing important stuff. Any thoughts? tips?
Few notes:
\- I cannot easily move the oven to be more center without it being a lot more expensive- Island is a good size, but worried that when the side door is open that we only have about 7 inches for foot traffic through
\- 3d mock isn’t perfect. Gonna go for face frame inset cabinets, hardware is flatter and wood tones we’re trying to go for a wood stain like [https://st.hzcdn.com/simgs/pictures/kitchens/tiburon-waterfront-julie-rootes-interiors-img\~fcd1bbc00ed681d0\_14-6843-1-57be751.jpg](https://st.hzcdn.com/simgs/pictures/kitchens/tiburon-waterfront-julie-rootes-interiors-img~fcd1bbc00ed681d0_14-6843-1-57be751.jpg)

Pics look great, what’d you render them with?
Is your main sink one compartment or two? IMO a bigger one that has two sides would be more functional because you can use half for cleaning produce and the other half for dishes. Sides donβ need to be equal. I think the rendering looks great!

I don’t see a pull out trash anywhere.
I really think your clearances on sides of island are not large enough with fridge and entryways there. 48″ all around is going to flow so much better. If you don’t have a flush built in fridge.. that door sticking out is going to make that even tighter.
In this case, I wouldn’t worry too much about the ‘triangle’ because of overall kitchen size and put the sink at the center of 2 windows. Kitchen sink islands are popular, but they really require a bit more length and can be a hindrance to foot traffic and need constant maintenance to keep dry where people are sitting.
Double trash, prep items, silverware all in island would feel a lot more usable to me than trying to cram main work areas toward the right side and sacrificing walkway space.
Make sure microwave isn’t too high. It’s a hazard to pull down hot plates from that level.. and is that the correct dimension of the fridge height? It looks low.
Otherwise, great selections!
if you are a baker, consider dropping the work surface under the windows for rolling out cookie dough and kneading bread.
That long stretch of counter will not be used much in this layout.
I see a lot of wasted potential storage space underneath the cabinets. Are you adding kick drawers? ADD KICK DRAWERS.
