Suzi's first option takes the cabinets to the ceiling. It has a 60" Aga range, separate refrigerator & freezer units, a wine captain, drop down door microwave, coffee system, a standard dishwasher and a single dishdrawer. There are 2 islands and 2 levels for seating - stools with 24" high seats & stools with 30" high seats. The round top could be glass or wood - making it a focal point and differentiating it from the other tops.
She lined up the Aga with the opening between the islands so it would be visible and she flanked it with windows. She put the prep sink in the corner so you would go from the ref., to the prep sink, to the cooking surface - a natural progression in preparing a meal. She has pot & pan drawers flanking the Aga and spice pull outs flanking them. The double trash cans will hold garbage in one and recycles in the other. Suzi thinks the pull out towel bar is a must. The tall bookcase faces out into the living area, giving a decorative end to the cabinets. The single dishdrawer is near the prep sink. There are bars over the windows for hanging pots. The wine captain could go under the coffee system instead of the microwave, making for a true serving/entertaining zone.
This option would be the most expensive as far as cabinetry is concerned.
The door to the back yard is a glass door and provides a straight-thru view from the front entry hall out to the back yard.
