Mustafa, my apologies for the delayed response! I've been thinking about your dilemma and this is what I've come up with. I'd make the most of the vertical space in the room so that you allow yourself maximum square footage for counter work space. If you're able to, I would suggest putting the refrigerator on the opposite wall (where the tall storage unit is in the sketch). Something similar to this:

What kind of square footage are you working in? How would you like to use the space? I pulled a few ideas to get started, but I would love to know more about what kind of space you're trying to create. Outdoor garden: Entertaining and eating: Lounge:

Most regions have their own prevailing construction methods and materials that are common and customary to that region. It may be driven by the available raw materials, local labor and their experience with a certain type of construction, and the cost of labor to build. Other factors that drive the different type of construction can be pressures from the environment and climate conditions. One can create recesses in masonry or stone walls but there may be structural weaknesses that become a factor or just more complicated construction that becomes involved. Building recesses in heavy masonry walls verses light stick framed walls can be equally possible. Reducing the thickness of a wall can also affect the insulation capabilities of that wall as well as the structure.

We would have to see interior of bldg. to help. But just looking at outside, a very minimal look. With contemporary furniture. Windows I would leave bare. Plants and brushes out side. With stone area. In side on floors either a dark slate, in a random pattern. Or very light wood floors.
