This is what gets me. If they were forced to have load bearing pillars there, I could at least try to understand making use of the space. What is even the point of these walls?!

That's where we put the booze.

That's the shame part.

Is it? I think in the top right picture you are looking at the left side of the fridge not the back.

Looks like a good spot to lie down

EeeeEEEEEEEeeEEEeEEEEeeeeEEEEEE!

Put a swing in there!

You don't think they'd build a refrigerator nook at an odd angle in the middle of the room without installing an outlet too, do you?

You tell me to replace the 7 year old water filter, believe it or not solitary. We have the best refrigerators because of solitary.

It looks a lot like a retrofit solution to the original kitchen designer never actually having used a kitchen. We've been house-hunting for a while and it's amazing how many newly fitted kitchens don't have space for a fridge. Or sinks butted up against the wall or the edge of a counter so you don't have anywhere to put the dirty dishes.

Wow, at first I thought maybe they couldn't put the refrigerator space there because it was a shaft, but it looks like that entire section of wall is for the closet, so I really don't know what they were thinking here. Bizarre design. Looks like maybe the project was going out for bid when they realized they forgot to make room and this was the only solution they could come up with.

Shame! Shame! Shame!
