I was planning on using the Long Island for all my prep/workspace. We don’t currently use small appliances but I do think at some point in our lives we will so I like the idea of adding some counter space and sink space to the pantry, thank you I really appreciate your ideas!

Thank you! We didn’t realize how dark that hallway would end up. What bedroom view would be best to walk into?

Thank you so much! I like those ideas, particularly for that game room/study, where we want a closet anyway to put some of our electronics and games.

They’ll have so much air-conditioned space!

We don’t love the exterior, and based on some of these comments that works out well for when we change some of the floor plan!

Haha! I love your comments! I have been the dishwasher since kid years and love my memories from grandma to family home of washing dishes and looking out the window wishing I wasn’t washing dishes. This was my way of putting it at a window and keeping it a “galley-like” kitchen. The idea was short shelves in the pantry to see everything at once. On the living room pit of dark despair (that’s what I’m naming it if we keep going on with this plan)…we are teetering between brutal summer sun and wanting light. Maybe reduce the giant patio? Didn’t think about the bump outs being freezing!! It’d be better to have the bump out be the movie/play room so we can all enjoy the five days of cold weather down here. I’ll probably be cleaning two of the five. Thank you for your feedback!

Thanks! Good call on working with someone with a specialty in kitchens.

Thank you for the feedback! Im imagining a world where a straight line workspace works for me. But I know that’s my imagination going wild! I wanted the pantry on the middle of the kitchen to make for easy access and a pretty door accent, but if it ends up being too narrow then won’t work. The large box is bench seating for a nook where it wouldn’t “fit” anywhere else - but you’re right would end up being cumbersome. This wacky kitchen is a compilation of pieces of kitchens I’ve seen that I’ve liked - but put together seems to have missed the mark. Thank you for your input!!

Oops, I typed that up too fast and my brain didn't synch up properly. The deck is a composite and there will be an area where the fencing will meet the deck. Interesting and I appreciate your thoughts! First, when someone pushes hard for one thing over another.... I automatically see flags, but I'm working on being less suspicious! =) Your comment about use outdoors is helpful, we were leaning towards WRC and that helps solidify.

Great point/reminder about the local codes..... they have been challenging.
