I have seen a round turning drawer used in the dead space at the
corner of a kitchen cabinet. Would appreciate any ideas you all
might have that uses this space in a different ways. Trying to
finalize design and the corner is giving me fits.

We had a U-shaped kitchen. At one corner our designer catty-cornered
our dishwasher, which I LOVED! The other corner held a unit of 4
drawers, also catty-cornered.


That is the bottom cabinet right? What about the top, what did you do?

Thanks!

Just had decorative curved open shelving (there was a window in between
these over the sink, which was at the head of the U). Facing the sink, I
had my stove and workspace to my left and my fridge to the right.
Perfect work triangle.

ALL our bottom cabinets were drawers with the exception of the
under-the-sink one. It was fabulous for the pots, bakeware, small
appliances, etc.

I miss that kitchen. Right now I have one with the "ever desireable"
island, which I don't get. I find I spend my day walking around the
island to get to everything. Oh well! That's life.

Depends on the location, shape, and size of the island in relation to
everything else in the kitchen. Our kitchen has an L-shaped counter with
the fridge at the end of the long side of the "L" and range in the middle
of the short side of the "L". The island is rectangular, contains the sink
and dishwasher, with just a nice turning radius of space between it and
both the long and short sides of the "L". The other long side of the
island is for sitting at, and beyond it is a wall of windows. Works
nicely.


Good luck on your project!!!
