>>16471740

>>16471732
Thats the washing machine. The dryer is opposite.

>>16471738
Im a leaf and i do.
i bought a house recently and the previous owner didn't have a dryer, only a washer in a closet.
to add a dryer in the same closet would require too many interventions, such as removing a wall.
so im just going to have it in the kitchen, but it'll be hidden by a door.

>>16472076
That's how my house is. They're beside the hotwater heater behind some paneled doors in a closet.

Granted, this house is like 100 years old.

>>16472120
Bonus in case you were wondering where the laundry is

>>16471720
When cooking porter ale steak, dishwashing machine is out of the pic but to the right.

Washer and dryer are behind the doors on the left.

No thanks I have a cookie-cutter apt kitchen, you could probably reverse-image search it and find my apt management company’s website in 2 minutes.

British houses are too small to have separate rooms for washing machines. We don't choose to have them in there. Besides we'd only use the space for more Breville toaster and Soda Streams.

>>16472170
See, why is it so big? Why do you need so much room in an area that's meant for working in. Cooking and washing is work.

>>16472170

nice floor. would drag my toenails across it

>>16472502
Not him but dont you like to hang out in the kitchen with people?

>>16472546
It's cheapo vinyl I installed because I hated the lineoleum. The wood floors are a lot prettier.
>>16472502
It's not *that* big and it serves a lot of functions. It's my backdoor entry, my laundry room, and kitchen. I like having plenty of space to do everything. Somebody suggested getting a rolling island before, and I might do that someday.

>do americans really have washing machines in kitchen?
That's a decidedly unamerican placement. Kitchen machines don't exist in the US. Cheap construction not to hire a pumber to do it elsewhere. Often it's a combination unit that dries it too, and holds about 3 outfits tops.
In the US, it's usually in a dedicated laundry room with folding areas like tables, a handwash drying rack, a garage, or in a multi-story house situation at the bottom of a nice laundry chute to a basement laundry area, in newer construction usually upstairs closer to bedrooms to prevent stairs and make it easy. The issue with upstairs is more infrastructure so that leaks won't damage surrounding areas, so there are essentially showerpans put down with different flooring, kind of the same reasons water heaters are in watersafe garages and basements too.

People who live in condo buildings who were built with coin operated community washers will remodel, and replumb to convert a hall closet or linen closet area to have their own compact washer and dryer, double-stack, and this has been ever since the world's fears of HIV, or living in an association with a hospital worker that does their own scrubs at home. Without your own machine, you should always do an empty or white load first, with bleach, to cleanse the machine from other people's fecal matter. Gross but true.

This is a real working kitchen. This kitchen has cute bones with good quality molding on the doors and windows. Wood cabinets, and nice big plank floors.

I'd do some less modern handles on those drawers and cabinets, and nothing more than get a hinged painting to hide your circuit breaker panel. I'd also change out your microwave to be a combination vent-a-hood microwave the next time either one of them craps out. You got a mismatch there on all 3 appliances, amid plenty of height over the stove. Last but not least, consider a glass or wooden pantry door, you have swing radius to replace the cheap closet panel. It will also keep kitchen moisture out of there. Make it match the rest of your cute cabinets and doors, the same era.

It's a big long area for the hot water heater, washer, and dryer. The people that owned it before put a shower rod and curtains across it. I hated that look. I could do those stupid sliding wood panel doors, but I hate that idea. What I really just need to do is do a dark stain on them.

Thanks for the tip on the circuit breaker. I'll definitely consider the microwave hood whenever I replace the stove. I hate the gap between it and the counters as well as not being stainless.

I could understand 2 tv's if you were using 1 as an art display / constant news channel / fireplace channel thing. but 3 tvs, and especially 3 tvs showing things you're supposed to actively be watching is inexcusable

>>16472757
">Cheap cabinets"
Those are Crystal Cabinets so you clearly don't have any idea what you are talking about.

>>16472776
Patent leather plastic on my ass? Both hot and occulsive. Someone into BDSM? Eek, or do you have toddlers who spill sippy cups and dribble cheerios into their lap? This looks like something from like your old house or a thrift store. Get that redone with some nicer fabric or soft suede, something more luxurious and to bring in the cream of the countertops.

I'm not liking the round knobs, almost seem a mismatch from the handles. I had that brown formica cabinet thing in the 1970s, so not a big fan, but you have too much of it to replace.

I'm gonna say that 1 television can always be on the financial news.

>>16472614
No, the kitchen is for working in. We have dining rooms and front rooms for socialising.

>>16471720
>Post kitchen
that's just a regular kitchen.
it's not a post kitchen.

Heres mine

>>16472502
>why is it so big?
tiny kitchens suck to do anything in.

Very nice. Dont listen to the contrarian losers

I would bet his countertops are worth more than your entire kitchen

>>16472986
i assure you they are not, looks like his appliances are at least a decade old

Here you go anon. How do you guys keep yours so clean?

what do you mean fourchan supports panorama

>>16473137
man my last place had a recessed sink like that and i loved it. cleanup was so dumb easy and i could fuck up my countertops with as much flour or fish juice as i wanted

>>16473140
I actually put things away when I'm done using them unlike you

>>16473140
Keep it clean and when you are done cooking clean up immediately

>>16471740

>>16473169
If I remember correct, it's actually some house in St. Louis, MO.

>>16473140
it has to be well organized before it can be clean

>>16472867
very clean

>>16473121
What? Y u so angry wtf

>>16472874
You don't need or want loads of floorspace in a domestic kitchen. Having to stride up and down the place is silly.

>>16473306
>Having to stride up and down the place is silly.
It must suck having to lift those ham hocks you call legs.

>>16473306
You want lots of counter space though. I used to have a small galley kitchen and it sucked

>>16473222
Thanks. Wife and I are both very clean and organized. It gives me anxiety when shit is in a disarray

>>16473346
Such an extreme need for order is a mental disorder. Try tidying that one up, loony.

i like this kitchen design a lot. medium-dark cabinets work in a large space with lots of light. decent backsplash and countertop color that also have warmth as a compliment. the adjacent room has awful floors, the chairs look terrible, fix the valance on the left blind, and the countertop material looks like cheap formica/corian, but other than that, it looks good.
>>16473118
i like the light fixture and that's it.

Beautiful dog. Im glad his tail isnt docked. Had a rotty as a kid. Great dog. Loved people but had no loyalty and was brutal with other animals.

Sorry. I bet your setup is better than you think. Nothing is ever as good or bad as you think. My wife is driving me nuts right now about what size of rug to get

>>16472986
why do you cheapen it with that stick on motel backsplash tho

>>16471738
That's a Europoor thing

>>16471852
for you

>>16473140
You know you can actually put things away in those cabinets instead of leaving a million things on the counters

>>16473820
Cool view but the decor, paint color, etc is extremely cookie cutter and soulless as fuck

Kind of a mess. Big camping trip this weekend

>>16477306
Man i need to stop being lazy and do a backsplash. I'm thinking faded copper subway tiles
