How to use 30-35cm gap in kitchen base units?

Currently designing our kitchen and looking for inspiration. See below for diagram, which is only part of a larger kitchen.

2 - fridge
3 and 4 = ovens
5 and 6 = appliance garage and open shelving, which will form a sort of breakfast prep area
8 = lemans base unit

Which leaves area 7, which, due to dimensions of the lemans, could be anywhere from 22-35cm wide. I don’t really want to make the breakfast prep area above smaller, therefore avoiding the gap at all. So, how would you fill it?

I have a similar sized space. I had shelves built and use it for recipe books.

We had a silly 12 cm gap at the very end after the dishwasher. We asked it to be made as an empty and left as an empty gaps, obvs couldn't have a little door, sp its open.
We store our chopping boards in it. They're visible, but it looks nice and works.

This is a brilliant idea!

I've got a space filled with similar to a wine rack but the shelves can be any height so I've got recipe books and a couple of pretty jugs on mine.
