Was there a picture or a link? I don't see either.

I'd probably think about an L plan and skip peninsula or island or anything in the middle of the floor...the long wall of the L can extend to fairly close to the patio door and in the eating area at that end I'd look for just the right drop leaf pedestal table so the traffic to the patio door can be accomodated. The fridge can go between the two windows once the bulkhead and peninsula is out. Invest in the liebherr fridge and furniture grade cabinets because it will be very open. The fridge could go where the stove and vent is, and place stove with hood on wall area between two windows-I don't think that change would be costly because it's an outside wall and easy to vent straight. A few more details would help-what is the sq footage of the home overall, what is your budget, how many feet across the room. and how long is the outside wall with windows?

Hi, thank you two for your responses. I do not know why the picture did not show up, it did in the preview. I'm trying again with this post to attach it. I'm still trying to figure out how to make the picture bigger, since the measurements are hard to read. The top wall is 13'4", the side wall is 16'6" and the current counter ends at 7'2"

I'm not that great at layout, but what about getting rid of the pennisula, moving the refrigerator to the right of the window in place of the pennisula, then turning the dining table to run the other direction? I don't think you lose all that much cabinet or counter space as you can put a cabinet in place of the refrigerator by the door. And I never find corners all that useful anyway. Depending on the window height and the exacte dimensions of the space, you might be able to squeeze a small cabinet or bookshelves into the dining area as well?

I'd go with a small counter depth refrigerator in that space. LG has a 10 cubic foot model I have used in a previous tiny kitchen and was quite happy with it. You can find it, along with reviews, on the AJ Madison website.

How big is your family? Do you already have a table and chairs in that space? Is it proportionally correct?

I think crl is on the right track, with moving the fridge to the right of the sink. It gives you more work space beside the stove and re-orients your work flow. The DW can go to the right of the sink, then the fridge. Cabinets beside the stove will more than make up for losing the rest of the storage in the peninsula. If you have a table there can it be flipped 90 degrees if the peninsula is gone?
