Anyone up for making suggestions? Pic is where we've got to as of now. The room is a reasonable size, but we have a massive table and no option to make a dining room elsewhere or knock through.
This plan hinges on cutting down and moving a huge dresser which was here when we arrived and was probably built for the house as it goes right up to the tall ceiling height. However, cutting it down by a third means that the fridge can live in a more accessible space rather than in the corner where it is now (which is where we intend to put the chopped down dresser).
Issues: the fridge is lonely and bare in this plan, but I'm wary of blocking off the access from that door (which is the main throughway into the room and also leads to the back door). At the moment the dresser fills that space but is much shallower than the fridge so doesn't encroach too much. I'd like a balanced look with a unit either side and prob a top box, but, as well as the encroachment issue, I'm worried about it feeling claustrophobic when you're eating surrounded by looming cupboards. So maybe the fridge just needs one tall 40mm cabinet, or a base with larder top - but then would it look unbalanced and weird?
Have put in a larder top above dishwasher, but that will have a boiler inside so might put another one next to the existing larder - but again, the looming cupboard thing gets me worried.
I've made the larder top as wide as poss, because of the boiler, but it's only about 20mm away from the window - is this too close?
Thanks if you're still awake!
