I just realized when I compared the photo above to the actual floor tile that the photo is showing a reddish colour. I'll try to take another photo using natural sunlight instead of a flash in the morning. Hopefully this will help with a more realistic colour.

Dear amoraljardin, Looks like a cute kitchen in the works. I wonder if you aren't getting more feedback because your plan is in centimeters?

I like your plan and love your island. My concern with your plan is that you don't have an easy place to unload dishes into upper cabinets because of the refrigerator placement. I also would not be happy with such a narrow sink cabinet. Both of these problems could be solved if you moved the fridge to the current "pantry wall". But this would mean making your island slightly narrower to provide clearance in the aisle between the new location of the fridg and the island. I'm sure that you've thought about this placement and there must be reasons you haven't selected this option.

Thanks francoise - it was so nice of you to respond to my request. I think you're right about the feedback - you're the only one that replied. I guess I'm going to have to go with what I have unless someone else chimes in as I'm meeting with the cabinet company tomorrow morning to sign off on the plans.

Funny enough - Our fridge is in the exact same spot you suggested temporarily as our other fridge died and the new one cannot fit in where the old one was, unfortunately, it's much too deep to stay on this wall permanently - even though it's counter depth. Anyway, thanks again.
