To have french doors but no window in a kitchen

We are planning an extension in an awkward space which will double the size of our kitchen.

Would it be silly to have french doors from the kitchen into the garden but no window to the outside? Would this bother you if it were the only ventilation (other than extractor) in the room?

YABU - it's a bad idea
YANBU - it's an OK compromise

We have big French windows and a small opening window and only wish we had a bigger one. Even with the extractor fan it’s not enough.

That is exactly what my
Kitchen is like and I hate it in the summer it's fine as the doors can be opened but in the winter it's not so good

We had a kitchen stable door with side windows in our previous house. Far prefer them to the patio doors we have in the current conservatory as the kitchen is in the front. will try to find a similar picture as I cant find any of the last house kitchen.

Tilt and swing door? Turn the handle one way and it tilts back at the top and leaves a gap for air movement. Turn it the other way and it swings open as usual
