I think your kitchen is great. It’s absolutely stunning although my suggestion would be too put the beautiful leaf prints artwork in another spot. Because of the scale of the art I believe they would be better served in a different area or at least leave the bottom print and put it halfway up the wall or 5‘8“ and the center of the artwork as the designers suggest..

Your kitchen looks fabulous! Both videos are quite helpful. I have to say, all the comments about having to walk so much made me chuckle. Despite having a good amount of kitchen square footage, our layout & lack of cabinets don't allow for too many choices, so we walk. There is no "triangle" in our kitchen, we have a breakfast peninsula not an island, and there are no functional cabinets near our dishwasher. It is what it is. It never occured to me how controversial a kitchen could be post-IG. 😁

A comment / question about *the lights above your sink:* _(I came back and deleted the word "short" that I'd written before the word "comment", since I see once again I've gone on and on....)_ How do you like them? Obviously you liked them or you wouldn't have installed them, but I mean about the clear glass and how much you need to (should?) clean them. They look like a subtle, brushed brass with clear bulbs (kind of what ya have to go with with clear shades, right?). But it's those lovely, clear shades.... They appear to have a 'slanted' top part; a vertical middle and a 'slanted in' bottom part. It's mostly the slanted top that 'worries' me---lol. Over the years I've discovered that in EVERY type of house / condo I've lived in there is *endless dust.* With that in mind, I've *tried to minimize my dark coloured and therefore dust-showing 'horizontal surfaces'.* So, no more (or at least less) dark wood tables / shelves / floors(!) or anything that catches the most dust. For horizontal surfaces I try for light coloured painted, or other light finishes. (Surprisingly, a back-frosted glass dining room table shows barely anything, and is even easy to clean(!)---I know, it shocked me too.) Along with this 'mantra' I've sworn off any light fixtures that would show dust sooner than later due to their shape or design. Yours look like they'd show obvious dust within about....ohh...two days(?) (on those upper parts). Do they? Do you notice? Do they drive you crazy? Am I too picky? Can I stop going on about such a minor aspect? Don't I have anything better to do? Funnily enough, I had totally vertical, clear glass 'tube lights' above the island in my last house. N-o-o-o pro-o-o-blem. Again, I was surprised. Because other glass like mirrors show dust quite quickly. Gave them a Windex-ing maybe once a year and they honestly didn't look dusty for months. They also barely showed that 'dirty film' that gets on seldom used crystal and things that sit in a cabinet for months between uses. Anyway, good dialogue video! Thanks.

As a much older person I understand the old protocol of placing drinking glasses near a sink but in the last decades that is just not the convenient placement any longer. ty for demonstrating that to people;-)!! We also placed the plates and bowls in the island drawers right across from the dishwasher. DRAWERS, DRAWERS, DRAWERS!!! Best thing for all the base cabinets.

Interesting. I'm not a 'stylish' type person (hey, if it works, I'm happy) - but I'm trying to improve a little which is what brought me to your video! LOL! I found it VERY interesting how color alone changed the 'look' from a sweet almost euro-country feel (not necessarily 'farm house') to a sleek contemporary feel - so I guess it depends on what 'look' one is going for. My folks had a 'coffee bar' before they were a thing! Six siblings chipped in and got them a commercial Bunn 2 burner coffee maker and a microwave (mom's first) in the early '80s. Dad built a special cabinet to hold them both with the micro under the coffee maker (using the liner under it so it didn't slide - like was suggested below) - so I'm sure you'll like that - mom did. You all did a great job on your kitchen! Wow! I like both 'looks' ... congrats! good videos too.

Great video. And gorgeous kitchen. You have to live the "Haters." We remodeled our kitchen about six years ago. Boy, do I ever have some regrets as well as disappointments. Number 1 that I'm facing is the toe kick. Apparently, it's just made of cheap wood, if you want to call it wood. It's become very flimsy, I guess from washing the floor, I have no idea what caused it. So now I suppose we have to replace them all!?! Fortunately, we don't have a large kitchen. My question is, I HATE the way the bottom of the dishwasher looks against the floor. It looks unfinished. I don't know how I didn't notice this right a way, but now I can't stop looking at it. Can you add a removable (in case the DW needs to be repaired or replaced)? I wish I could add photos for you to see.

I love the contrasting island and would love to know how easy or difficult it was to choose mismatched materials and pull it off so well. Regarding the microwave - I find it the most challenging component of a kitchen design if not putting it on a wall. No other solution is perfect. I like your shelf, and if you were to build it in - consider one with a drop-down door like a regular oven. The drawer is odd - I think in 20 years the next generation will mock us for those. The fact that the microwave drawer can't be pushed in quickly (so as not to spill the soup!) is frustrating. If not doing wall oven + microwave, I think under counter with oven-style door is best. We bend over for the oven so what's the difference? Also 1500 is kinda nothing compared to what you probably paid for the entire thing & 1.5 islands ;)

Why are they so concerned about your kitchen when they don’t have to use it?!!! I guess I’m in trouble because we’re in the process of building now and we’ll have a itty bitty area on each side of our refrigerator like you have! It was up against the wall in the plans and I didn’t want it hitting the wall every time it was opened and putting those small cabinets or spice rack pull outs were the only way to fix the issue. I love your kitchen and everything else about your house that I’ve saw so far! I’ll be making me some peg racks soon too!

Just watched both videos back to back, love all the updates. Have you ever thought about getting a custom trim for your microwave? It wouldn't show the unfinished wood, the microwave would not slide back, and give a custom look. Going through a kitchen renovation right now and was surprised that custom microwave trim doesn't cost as much as I thought.

This was a great video. We are just building our home and just designed out cabinets. It is funny we have out coffee pot station completely across from our sink as well, however it will be right next to the fridge and we can fill with filtered water there. Same on our microwave but ours will be above some pull out pantry cupboards. I love your kitchen it is beautiful! I was debating between white cabinets and rustic alder natural finish but ended up going with the rustic alder…..hoping I don’t have regrets! Our old kitchen was white tile and I had painted the old cabinets white so I think it was time for a change. I’m excited to have an island for the very first time!!

Love it! I’m older so bending to the mic isn’t easy. And I wear bifocals so I would need to get low to see clearly. But that said I love the mic in the cabinet and out of the way. I currently have a mic oven combo built in the wall. I don’t like that either. When it breaks down I’m going to put in a double oven in its place and move my mic to the pantry. You are very talented. I love it when I see a new post! ❤️from Tennessee.

Your kitchen is gorgeous. Good changed. I can see down the road getting the microwave drawer. Sometimes we gave to wait. I love the brass pear on your island. Big deal you need to walk more, you just get in more steps. That's a good thing!

Everything looks really good. You made some good choices and it all flows very well. I don't blame you for sticking with the less expensive microwave. I did a kitchen makeover sometime back and put a built in microwave over the stove. Shortly after the warranty expired that microwave went out. When we moved into our current house, I chose a smaller less expensive microwave and set it in the space where a much bigger microwave had been. I'm pleased with it and will buy another one just like it when it goes out.

Yes! I wanted to avoid designing around a specific appliance as well in case we ever have to switch. Great point!

What I would do for the microwave area. Cut a piece of wood and put it across and paint it the same color as your cabinets and it would look more built-in.🪚

We have the hand movement faucet. We really enjoy it with raw chicken and such. But I have no problem getting it to work, as a matter of fact it goes off all the time when I clean around the faucet and I forget it’s there soaking my arm, lol. Otherwise it works awesome!

I so appreciate both of these videos. The microwave - it might help a tiny bit to raise it at high as it will go in that space. Forgive me if this is already suggested.

When microwave is slid toward the front you don't notice the color difference of the inside of the cabinet if you put a stopper to keep the microwave from sliding backwards you really might not have to paint the inside. My favorite thing about your kitchen is the windows they are absolutely just gorgeous good job.
