I have mentioned it a few times already, but it fits perfectly here again, in my eyes:
Since I think islands are always in the way, we chose a countertop depth of 80 cm all around in order to reduce the "dance floor" in the middle.
We are very happy with that. There is still enough space to work in front of various kitchen appliances, which greatly increases the effectively usable length of the countertop.
Matching this, there are extra-deep drawer cabinets. These are very practical, especially when it comes to putting large, round things inside. (And that is supposed to happen in kitchens! ;-)
The surcharge for both was "reasonable" with our kitchen manufacturer. So not twice as expensive, but appropriate to the ratio, about 20% more per cabinet and running meter of countertop.
That is a really good idea, thanks for that! I can well imagine that we might take a similar approach.
What do you think about the topic of dead corners? In our current kitchen we have a corner carousel and find it so-so. We could imagine that a deep base cabinet here could be at least an equivalent solution at a significantly lower price.
Regarding Blum:
Are these Blum pull-outs available for every kitchen manufacturer (Nobilia, Alno, etc.) or only limited to certain ones?
Since we don’t have a basement, stocking up is naturally an issue for us. We were thinking about the Blum Space Tower here. Does anyone have experience / assessments on this?
