Uiuiuiiiiii, I would run away from that. At least if I had to clean that thing.

Have they already promised you toothbrushes for the cassettes at the kitchen studio? Otherwise, you won’t get them clean if you use the kitchen regularly. Especially near the stove, a fine layer of grease settles into the grooves. Really nice! It’s so much fun to pick it out again.

I wouldn’t have those open bottle racks in the kitchen under any circumstances. Besides the popular grease film, these beasts also tend to collect wonderful dust. And honestly: you don’t store good wine LIKE THAT. Usually they turn into a collecting place for all kinds of junk. I would have preferred to treat myself to a narrow base cabinet instead.

And personally, I’m also not a fan of cabinets with glass inserts (whether on top or bottom). Maybe that’s because I’m a bit of a hoarder and my cabinets are usually quite full. And the motto there is to fit as much as possible under, not “it also has to look nice,” which is what I wanted with cabinets with glass.

I find the window seat pretty, but I wonder where you want to put something when you take things out of the DG and oven (the ones on the left are DG and oven, right?). Maybe you can’t see it that well here, but I find the distance to the island quite far. How do you do it when the roast or the bread or something else has to be brushed, basted, or otherwise treated during preparation? There’s somehow nothing within reach where you could put something down.

And the fridge (that’s the tall cabinet next to the DG/oven, right?) would be personally too far away from the area where I work (usually between the kitchen island and the parallel kitchen row). And again: so far away from the island. If I have to take something out for cooking, I carry it individually to the cooking island, and if I need something while cooking, I have to run around the island to the fridge.

The kitchen is too sporty for me as a lazy person. You have to run too much, clean, and keep things tidy (glass inserts).

My current kitchen - just photographed, so not specially tidied up *g*.

What really annoys me is the corner sink - but since it’s a rental apartment with fixed connections, I didn’t have many options there. When two of us cook, there are always bottlenecks exactly there. Also, that’s where the fridge and the dishwasher are (next to the fridge, it’s only a 45 cm one), so that’s really the critical corner of this kitchen.

Unfortunately, I don’t have any nice animated views of the new kitchen in the house. We’re having it made by the carpenter, and he doesn’t have such a program. The drawn plans are currently under construction – if I remember, I might bring them along and maybe I’ll also take the trouble to adjust my Alno planning accordingly. But at the moment I can’t provide anything.

Under no circumstances would I ever have these open bottle racks in my kitchen.

You certainly are not allowed to write something like that here. After all, it’s none of your business whether others have something like that in their kitchen or not

As long as “social acceptance” of usage of open shelves in the kitchen is not brought in as an “argument,” it is normal feedback... By the way, I really like the look of Yosan’s, but I share the concerns about maintainability.

I like the kitchen of I don't want to clean it and it doesn't fit in our place. I would also reconsider the bottle compartments. They look good visually, but practically everything will end up there except bottles. big kitchen for a rental apartment. The sink was probably once completely in the corner. It was once modern. I'm curious about the carpenter's kitchen.

and I am already really looking forward to this bench seat in front of the window... especially since in summer the first rays of sunshine just still shine in there in the morning.

This will be a very cozy kitchen and the seating area is great.

Oh my goodness, I would run away from that. At least if I had to clean the thing.

A kitchen like that develops a slight patina over time. That's part of it. We really aren't cleaning maniacs and have a cassette front in our current 2001 beechwood kitchen. It all still looks decent.
