wah....the previous ower's fridge is kind of small yeah? base is thick, but seems a little narrow and shallow.

and also a pretty "weird" spot to place the fridge. effectively blocks off 1 panel's worth of cabinet space and curtails the opening of the adjacent panel's door, thereby restricting the size of the items one can put inside. and if the fridge is really tall, the top cabinet also affected.

for my personal preference, i feel that placing anything bulky next to the kitchen entrance gives a claustrophobic feel to the kitchen when one transitions frm the hall to the kitchen. as u walk into the kitchen, u immediately get hemmed in by a wall on one side, and the bulky item on the other side.

I like the floor tile.

Do u want to change your blog subject?

if i rem correctly, you mentioned u will not retile the kitchen floor, so if u hack off the fridge base, unless your contractor/ID got exactly the same mosaic tiles to replace, you may have problems....

Yeah, agree!

Still thinking if I should tuck it into that corner, meaning my working top area will be reduced leh....

and also the area where the current base is will be wasted... but of cos the claustrophobic feel will not be felt...

any suggestion?

Good memory neubie! I like the floor tiles more than the wall tiles.. ha ha...

Sigh, yeah lor.... that is a problem, so I am thinking to put the new fridge at the same spot but w/o the base lor...

and get a corner unit for the cabinet, those rotating one... to utilize the space in that corner...

actually got the design out already.... but now I dunno how to post the drawing here...

Let me post it tmr in the office if I have time... :P

Then all of you can comment.... ha ha..
