Reno@Segar - Kitchen options

a new beginning for a family of 3 + 2 grandparents in a 4 room apartment

WANTS
the grandparents want the side by side fridge
the mother wants a cafe bar countertop which takes up 50% of the kitchen counter space
the grandparents wants a close kitchen
the mother wants an open kitchen
OMG.
@_@

Mathematically speaking, that leaves the other 50% of the kitchen counter to house the stove, double bowl sink, countertop convection oven and the huge fridge.  It just doesn't add up. There's not enough counter space to work with. 

Some things have to go or compromise.

NEEDS

sink

stove

proper working space for food preparation

The truth is hard to bear. But lucky thing, the father is willing to compromise. They probably will get a smaller fridge but it's still relatively sizeable. The oven has to go to the "cafe" bar counter and sits less one person.
