[quote=Anonymous]Agree with the posters who like the design / question the function for a primary family home.

Love the idea of cutting down on clutter and maybe something like this would force me to do it. But like a PP I would have to buy all new stuff to make it work (not an expense I'd want when buying a house).  But more serious functionality concerns include:

-Dishwasher. Is that the box under the island? No DW is an absolute no go for me
-Where does trash/recycle/compost go?
-Only 2 burners on the induction plate. That's NOT enough for me
-We need more storage for items like crockpot, breadmaker, etc.  Our family is gluten free so we need space to do that at home (i.e. we generally can't just buy bread, or at least not tasty bread)
-we need more food storage.  Love the European model of stopping for fresh ingredients once a day on your way home, but that's not practical for me living here.

If you like modern/minimalist but want to maintain resale, I would go for modern cabinets without uppers.  Someone else who needs more storage could easily see how to add more cabinet space, plus if you have a good layout a buyer with a different style could always swap out the cabinet doors for a different look.[/quote]
