Hello,

It would be really great if everyone here could just post one or a few pictures showing the current state of their house.

I'll start right away.

For renovations, it’s best to provide a comparison of before and after the remodeling.

Before March 2014:



After May 2015:

Hey, if that’s all it is: you’ve done everything right!

Short practical paths

Yes, I agree on the layout of the paths.

Our toaster is ready to use in the pantry, the coffee machine can stay outside for now and will eventually be replaced by a stylish fully automatic coffee maker, which hopefully will be attractive enough to stay outside permanently.

Since the kitchen island is within reach from the bench at the dining table, the toaster is perfectly placed there—we don’t want to have to get up just to make toast. For coffee, we use a non-automatic machine that’s a bit messy but makes wonderful coffee. Of course, Barbara can’t be missing behind the splash guard of the cooktop, and a few cooking oils are also ready and waiting. It makes for a somewhat cluttered but practical corner. Snapshot from the bench:

Kitchen with counter, coffee machine, spice bottles, and a lying sculpture on the counter

Oh, and boiling water comes from our Grohe Red – but I think I’ll choose a Quooker “next time” because the Red has had to be reset multiple times (power switched off and on) and has already required customer service.

You probably have to take it with humor; otherwise, it can be really frustrating when looking at the mess^^ I delayed this decision for a long time, probably because you could spend the money on something "more important," but the appearance now does make me a bit sad;-)

What is all this, and why is it all squeezed over to the left side?

Golden toast, so to speak... 😉

And nothing splashes onto the bench (from the cooktop)?

Kitchen area... somehow there are tons of spotlights everywhere. centered above the walkways and the island.
I think I had a few beers already when I came up with this idea *lol*

Yes, but why is there a single spotlight all the way to the right and then nothing else?

No, not during everyday use. And if something is fried very hot, a baking tray is simply placed upright as a shield. The Falmec hood also works exceptionally well.
