Browse Forums Kitchen Corner 1 Jan 07, 2011 3:24 pm I need some advice. Our kitchen is being re-used from the exisiting part of the house, so we dont have much choice on the layout. The new kitchen area is narrower than the exisiting. Its a U shaped design, fairly standard with fridge on left wall, oven/pantry on right wall, sink( double bowl with drainer to the right) in the middle however....there is a window directly above the sink area..excellant however...if we have the sink directly under if doesn't give enough space then to have the dishwasher on the right and then have a corner pantry next to that...so my question...would it look absolutely ridiculous having the sink 'off to one side' to allow for dishwasher and corner pantry to fit?? I'm sure i can put something on the right of the sink to as a focal point to distract from the 'off centered' sink... thoughts... and unfortunately we cant position the dishwasher anywhere else other than right beside the sink.. (holes cut etc..)

Could you just purchase the double sink with the drainer on the side to sit above the dishwasher so overall the sink still kinda looks central? Its sort of hard to picture without a pic.

The doors can’t open past 90 degrees and it’s difficult and maybe impossible to remove drawers 2 15586 No. It's not original. Circa early to mid 90s would be my guess and maybe even as late as early 2000s 1 6627 2 4669 |
