Quick new kitchen idea -

Thanks to the ever-helpful folks at ikeafans.com, I had an insight on the kitchen this morning. If the drains allow (gas hookups can be flexible within reason, can't they, since it's just a hose?) I think this might be a better arrangement for the appliances (didn't have time to fill in the top cabs yet, but they'll be like in the last design).

Meeting a contractor - who I hope will be mine - this afternoon.
