Dear All Smart Forumer
I am having a dilemma trying to finalize my kitchen design. I posted a thread back in a while asking for ideas. looks like no contribution @ all. So, i took all the hassle to design myself.

Also, I went to ID to ask for some advice too.

So my thinking is the following:

a) Single Line pros: more space for the washing machine. Can change to bigger model in the future.
cons: not much space to put ur dish before frying or cooking.really no space.

b) L shape pros: more space to place dishes and working with your "food"
cons: running out of space for washing machine.
Kitchen look smaller. btw, fengsui say that actually the cook’s back should never face the kitchen entrance. In this case, it is unavoidable.
Water and fire coexist in the same line for this case, ex: Hob and Washing machine tap.(but can request to be lowered)




Feel free to comment and constructive suggestion.



Yes, I know, the beam really spoils all the fun in this renovation. This is typical example of a noob buying a condo without think over how to renovation.

I think placing a stove near the washing machine isn't suitable.
I'll choose the Single Line.

I'll go for single line. Your washing machine is too near to the stove. You friends will know what you cooked yesterday by the smell on the clothes. Also, your washing machine might damage from the heat.

Not exactly a problem.
Just cover up the washing machine with protector when not using.
In my old house, that's what we do.

L shape looks more compact whereas single line there seems to be disconnect at the very end. The washing machine had been singled out and the space there could become a waste.

So my vote goes to L shape. wink.gif

perhaps can exchange the place for stove and sink?

first, the stove next to a wall on the right side might limit your arm movement when cooking.
second, the piping for sink can be shared with the washing machine piping.
then can hv L-shape.
