We have be been planning to build a kitchen in basement. The dimension is 10.5' (126") wide and 8.5' (102") deep on left to open area as show in the following photo: The drain and water supplies are on the rear and to the right, so the sink will need to be on right rear corner. I'd like to put dishwasher in front of drain pipe so the clean out can be accessed if needed. We'd like to have granite counter tops, to reduce cost, I'd like to avoid 45 degree corners. To the left and rear are external walls, so the stove will like be on either left or rear. One of the possibility is shown as below to make counter top simpler. On the right lower corner are additional counter and refrigerator. Are there potential issue with this design? Thanks for any comment and suggestions?

I am opening up part of a wall between my kitchen and living room and need to move the fridge to the oppoiste corner of the kitchen. Here is my dilemma. One wall has baseboard heat and the other does not so I placed the back of the fridge against the wall with no heat and the side of the fridge has the baseboard heat. My wife would like it turned so that the back of the fridge is against the baseboard heat. Other than making the fridge run a little more during the winter months are there any other conerns I should have?
