    I am enjoying this thread enviously! I think we have finally found a contractor who speaks our language after a long search and hope to get going on our similar project soon.

    Yep, it does. But my resident chef is already scheming to replace it. We're not making any rash decisions, but there will be a new kitchen. More compact and functional, and with more daylight.

    The dining room and entrance hall will also be big winners.
    GO!

    No entrada permitted right now, since they are finishing the floors now. My wife snuck a picture through the back door.

    Starting to see what it will look like ...

    Floors get re-done in December when we are away.

    Just a comment. These guys who lay floors are freaking animals.

    Seriously. They had two floors laid in less than two days. We were foolishly worried about all of the drips, spills and wear that accumulated between then and the finish being applied. It's good to be reminded that you are stupid every once in a while.

    I went into work early today so I could bail and receive shipment of the undercounter beverage fridge. It's a factory second Perlick (half price, with no noticeable defects) that's apparently made out of depleted uranium. My back is screaming now.

    we'll remodel in about six months. this is the "feel" of what i'll be going for. while i love to be in the kitchen, i want it to look like a place where serious work is done, and to actually be a place where it can get done! while i'm no chef, i do really enjoy preparing food and cooking. i like everything about it, the planning, choosing, buying, preparing and cooking. i'm not much on the serving though: i'm ok, in fact it still makes the most sense to me, to serve right out of the pot. i've got to work on that.

    i do like commercial looking equipment even in the home. i've got viking stuff now in stainless inside and i like it, but don't think i'll go with them when we remodel. some of the commercial equipment folks now have residential lines that are a bit more refined then their pure commercial, yet still put out higher heat and capacity in range tops, ovens etc. i built an outdoor kitchen, part of which you see hidden behind that old bike here: P1010272-L.jpg, and i love the built in sink and drawers that are one piece and lift out for easy cleaning. so, bringing some of that indoors is what i hope to shoot for.

    Low and behold there was light.
    This morning we made full use of a Sharpie to sketch out the island and decided lights go here >>>>>

    Countertops went on today. That section on the island, from front to back is 63".

    Ovens, and cooktop go in tomorrow morning.

    Fridge cooler drawer and dishwasher go in Friday (I hope).

    Plumbers are installing the RO and filter system on Friday.

    The top cabinets are made for TT. My wife is 5'1". I am still not sure what she was thinking with those.

    Nice. I like your sink. My wife was dead set on a non-radiused single basin sink, so we compromised and got a non-radiused single basin sink.

    The sink was my choice. I wanted two basins, and deep.

    I got what I wanted. I didn't get any choice on any of the other stuff, but i got the sink!

    Thankfully we're both double basin sink fans here. Actually, we have very similar design aesthetics so it makes much of this easy. Just kicked off a master bath reno.

    Appliances are in! Exclamation point for me, because I'm excited. Sorry for the orientation on some of these.

    Obligatory sink shot.
