I've been working on the kitchen today. I think I have it the way I want it, generally.
I've added a double door from the kitchen to the family room which wasn't noted on the floor plan screenshot in my original posting of this thread. That is what I have the Virtual Visitor standing in front of looking into the kitchen here. I've got one of those corner breakfast nooks there on the left with extra seating around it. Also there on the left (with just the corner of it showing) is a bookcase, for the cookbooks and such that can be useful in a kitchen.
For some reason the color didn't come out right on the vintage stove I put in; it's supposed to be mostly white, but came out checkered in the rendering. Oh, well. There's the refrigerator to the left of the folding doors that lead into the Great room. I have a nice big island there in the middle with bar stools for even more seating. On the right is a row of pantries and additional storage. Just out of shot on the right is the double doors leading to the small atrium area.
This is from the opposite corner from that first shot (I've got cabinets behind the Virtual Visitor). The front edge of the vintage stove is just visible on the right. The sink and dishwasher are now visible on the island. Both the double doors to the family room and the double doors to the atrium area are visible here (these areas appear dark because I haven't worked on them yet and as such haven't added any lights in either of them). A slightly better view of the pantries there to the left of the double doors, and the bookcase to the right.
Also, I'm thinking of having the dark wood flooring throughout the house, with the exception of the bathrooms and possibly the bedrooms... maybe even the nursery area upstairs...
This house is still a work-in-progress; when I get more done I'll post more on it.
I did work on the ground floor L-shaped hallway but because it's so bare I didn't think it worth taking pictures of. I added the flooring and the paint as well as the windows on the left sides at even intervals.----------------------------------------
