Having a wall here would enable you to also add additional features like floating shelves, artwork etc to really complete the space. It would separate the kitchen from the dining area more as well, to make it really noticeable of being a separate space.
Personally I would have it, noting you have a walk in pantry and other places for kettle toaster etc. I would actually extend the bench to the dotted line and maybe continue joinery across into dining space. It looks cramped stopping at end of window and not balanced with island and family room
Same, include the wall but extend to the dotted line to give a better balance when looking into the kitchen - the island will look more centred. A thought, you could extend lower joinery on the other side of this wall to create a buffet for your dining room that connects visually, you could use identical cabinetry or the same profile & handles but in a different colour.
Would you extend the bench and more the window across too, or would you have a full height cupboard? Markup of the full height cupboard I’m mindful of how much my builder will charge 😬
I’m just having another look at kitchen. The elevation B show one tall window visible from family room. What the view from this window. The kitchen seems so unbalanced when viewed from family room Would it be better to have windows below cupboards
The green line is the plasterboard wall at the end that I was originally questioning if needed. Box shelf added as think it finishes the edge to the window better.
Looks beautiful. The pendant lights provide some balance for the open shelving, which being open with no upright against window add to spaciousness of window. By contrast your design is boxing in the window
