Dinette design

We've been talking about the design of our dining area. Looking at the permit plans we are now proposing the following alterations:

• The 2 east-facing double-hungs would be replaced by a good size three-prong transom window to allow our hutch to fit underneath. Even helps with the R-value since a fixed window frame is better in energy efficiency than a double-hung.
• The 3 south-facing double-hungs would be replaced by larger ones that come down to couch-seating level so - in combination with the deep window sills of an ICF wall - we can do the much-desired built-in bench seating along them.

 In combination with the switch of kitchen lay-out to a double-island lay-out I think we had a productive evening. Nite, nite!
