How to Plan Your Kitchen's Layout

When planning a new kitchen remember the working triangle. The stove, the sink, and refrigerator should all be within a close distance. Being that the pantry is used for food storage as well it is smart to have it next to the fridge. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kitchen_work_triangle

The easiest thing would be to move the pantry to the right of the fridge. You can use ROTS to pull everything out, so that nothing is lost in the back. But pantry cabinets, especially those with ROTS, are more expensive than framing. ETA, plan with island parallel to fridge/range wall. NKBA recommends 42-48" aisle space, so the range oven would open into the long aisle. I put that pull-out in there just to give you a little more elbow room to the left of the range, but you could omit it and move the range down against the corner susan. What do you plan to have in the island? How many seats do you need?

Are you thinking of bright white or off white. canvas or antique white would look better with dark oak. Also then go with dark counter top and a combination of light and dark back splash glass tiles.
