I think a comfortable distance between the island and the counter is around 42". It seems that you have only 30" between your cook top and the counter. I might be a little too tight. The wall between the entrance and the kitchen could be 4' long instead of 6', you would then be able to move the island a foot which would give you more room between the cook top and the island. Could you switch the location of the toilet and vanity in your dad's bathroom so your enter facing a vanity instead of a toilet which is a lot nicer.

Work with someone in your location who designs and provides kitchens. If you location is not in the U.S. cabinets sizes and appliances are very different and info will not apply.

they kinda have no choice ladies, they have to have an architect in miami! i just kinda figured they were trying to figure out what they wanted in the home? to me, even if i had a home built? i would have houzz people on board from the beginning. there are too many things thrown at you, and yet too many choices assumed without any input. like all master bathes must have 2 sinks right? well not mine, and i might want the space and $ spent somewhere else?

nothing u can do.. ur flat layout is very different and the toilet blocks has to be nearest to the duct side, and if u want to shift some other place , then it possible only when u break the existing flooring tiles with coba below to pass the wc pipeline and for that u have to raise the floor small area portion at least by 6" height excluding the floor coba height, i:e, after floor tiles... and the living & kitchen can be replaced the position only for the common toilet to shift
