I'm toying with this idea I have and would like feedback on whether it's a good idea or not.
We are remodelling a house we are about to complete on, this will give us a fairly large rectangle shaped kitchen from the front of the house to the back. As the kitchen is shares a wall with the double garage and also empty space where we are planning a double story exention, we are able to build a room of the side of the kitchen.
My question is, should I go for a small kitchen area, keeping a minimalist look, units for let's say a third of the kitchen, then space for a small dining table and a lounge type area (will have a separate formal dining room and separate kids play room and separate formal lounge) and then make a walk in pantry to house all the other pots and pans, non- everyday essentials, spare cans of food, bags of rice/pasta etc etc... my thinking is, with busy lives we will spend most of our evenings in this one area so we can all be together, and I will have less cleaning up to do for the kitchen so can hopefully keep it more tidy and clean as there will be less work tops etc. As apposed to using up the whole kitchen with units and work tops that will need cleaning due to dust etc...
What do ppl think?
