Part 2/9:
Planning and Design Considerations
Several key decisions are made as the homeowner visualizes the new layout. A main goal is to reuse the existing butcher block workspace while improving storage with new cabinets and drawers, aiming for a neater, more organized space that keeps utensils and spices clean and accessible.
A thoughtful approach is taken regarding electrical needs. The homeowner plans to add an outlet, considering proximity to existing wiring and the placement of appliances like the range hood. The wiring, previously designated for an off-centered hood light, will be rerouted to accommodate the new configuration.
