I must be weird. I kinda like it. It keeps the grease and heat away from the rest of the prep space.
Really depends where the fridge is... Triangle is optimal, but if the fridge and sink both require walking around that counter it's gonna get annoying fast.
Also lets them have a little breakfast area as well.
Seems like the most efficient use of space to me.
It looks like a good use of space if you have never really used a kitchen before. Very difficult to use in any real world cooking scenario.
There should be laws stopping people who don't use kitchens from designing them. I see so many terrible choices like this.
Oh fucking please.
The sink situation is easily solved with either filling up that kettle, or using a stock pot. The fridge being out of frame means you're not having to go around the partial island.
This is a nice utilization of an awkward space. The stove placement means you don't have to teach young and/or stupid housemates 'hot behind' because there's space for both mis en place and to set a hot dish, in a way that doesn't mean someone has to scooch behind you and bumping butts.
This is far from the worst design this room layout could have and is actually pretty damn smart given the layout.
The kitchen is overall hideous, but I do like that generous prep space adjacent to the cook top.
Turn oven 90° counterclockwise, counter along the wall left of the oven instead of where it is now.
Bonus: You can now have storage above the counter!
I'm with you. I kind of like it over there keeping its mess to itself. Kind of dig the green too.
