Today I wanted to bring the blog up to date on how the kitchen plan has evolved over the past few weeks.
First, a reminder of the current layout:
… and a floorplan of the whole proposed first floor:
Now finally, the current kitchen proposal:
The big changes since last you saw these plans:
1. We’re not touching the foyer at all. We’re not moving the wall between foyer & kitchen.
2. The coat closet will be in the little room off the half bath
3. I’ve narrowed the peninsula by 6 inches or so for better passage space and better access to the upper cabinets above the perch space
4. Some refinement of the arrangement on the sink/stove wall

I have actually come full circle on the location of the microwave (drawer beside fridge). It spent some time over by the dishwasher, but this is just too good a spot for it.
I’m also still screwing up my courage to post the above plan for comment on the GardenWeb kitchen forum for comment. Having the pics published on Parkercat is a good first step.
