Hello,
I have a small issue with my kitchen planning. I need to arrange the base cabinets around a corner. I’ve tried many different options, but in the end, I will only have about 50 cm (20 inches) of space left. Around the corner, the depth continues at 37 cm (15 inches). This means that on one side I need to bridge about 13 cm (5 inches), and on the other side, there must be a few centimeters of clearance so that the drawers can still open.
Do you understand what I mean?
How is this usually solved professionally?
