[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I think the classic perspective of trying for a reasonable distance between refrigerator, stove and sink and main work space makes sense.  Huge kitchens are not really better.  [/b]

I have a very functional but not as beautiful kitchen and I'm glad to have it rather than an enormous kitchen that doesn't work well.

I still have a gas stove top.  But I'm worried about the emissions so I have a strong fan attached to an outside wall.  I also have an electric toaster / convection oven so that if I'm heating up one serving of something (or the kids are) then they don't have to use gas.

So true. We are in the process of moving and while the new house has a large kitchen, it is not really functional. For example, the sink is pretty much by itself across the island (by the window), away from the prep areas, breakfast bar, fridge, stove, etc. Of course, everything can be fixed, but fixing the new kitchen will require a lot of money, so we'll probably just live with it. It is big and probably considered beautiful, but so dysfunctional. [/quote]
