In the apartments for our guys, I have a straight wall with a length of 2.9 m (9.5 feet) where I want to install a small kitchen unit. Both kitchen units should be identical but mirrored in their layout. In one corner, a 24 kW tankless water heater needs to fit inside a base cabinet to supply both the kitchen and bathroom. This unit is approximately 45 cm (18 inches) high, 25 cm (10 inches) wide, and 10 cm (4 inches) deep.
The kitchen should include a sink with a small draining area, two cooking zones, a small oven with a microwave function, and a built-in refrigerator with a freezer compartment. A range hood can be omitted. The ceiling height in this area is 2.45 m (8 feet). It would be ideal to have the microwave device in a slightly taller cabinet at working height.
There should be enough space for basic cookware, dishes, cutlery, glasses, food supplies, waste, and some cleaning materials for the apartment. I’m only getting unsatisfactory results experimenting with pen and paper and curse both the Sweet 3D program and the Ikea online planner equally. Who has the time, interest, and passion to help me?

Actually, the only downside is that we hardly use our current extractor hood. A quick draft should be enough.However, grease settles everywhere. You can ventilate to get rid of odors.C

But the grease settles everywhere. When I think about how my grease filters look after I put them in the dishwasher once a month... without a hood, that grease would be on the cabinets, the floor, and in a small room with a bed even on the laundry... yuck!

A floor plan with measurements would be helpful. In an open-plan living area, the kitchen cannot be considered separately.
That’s true, a kitchen hood tends to look dirty after less than a month of normal use. However, I don’t think the kids are cooking at the stove every day. So, I would at least prepare everything for a hood but maybe not install one right away if the budget is tight, or wait to see how the kitchen is actually used in the end.

You cannot consider the kitchen separately in an open-plan living area.I put together something; it looks similar to the current layout – the bathroom and bathroom door will be different, but that’s not important here. Above the kitchen is a sleeping loft with space for a bed and a small workspace for a computer. The ceiling height in the kitchen is about 2.45m (8 feet). Since we have two children, we are building two of these living units with separate front doors on the north side and a shared terrace on the south side.
