John cooking on the stove. He's happy doing what he loves.
Notice the lack of counter space and the refrigerator close behind him. It may be cozy, but it's not an efficient work area.

This area will be used for the new kitchen, which will gain a window over the sink with this view of the back yard.

The prep sink is located away from the cooking area to make room for a second person in the kitchen.
You can see the engineered stone countertop close-up here.
