Re: Kitchens
..love kitchens that are organized in a good way, with everything at hand...
Very nice, AdeleAlli. And making a good kitchen is challenging. I am afraid I have no drawings to share, but three times I have built kitchens, and only the last time I managed to get one that worked exactly the way I wanted. Nothing spectacular, and ignoring the advice of several kitchen planners, but in use for 10 years now - and I still appreciate the layout every day.

Your kitchen really looks like a great place to cook with friends. My preference, but that is just a matter of personal taste, would be to move the cooker/stove further away from the sink to have more open bench to work on (and also to avoid having water and an electric cooker/stove too close, building requirements). You could possibly consider making the benches/cabinets deeper since it seems you have room to spare where the tea-towels are. I also like L shaped work spaces with one bench under a window - and lots of (low) light sources to combine ambiance with good work-lights.
