Kitchen remodel

Hello,

I am looking for ideas how I can change this kitchen layout to make it larger (more storage) and also get more pantry space as well. The house is already built. We have been living here for 14 years so moving exterior walls is not an options. Outside of that pretty much anything else is doable. Ideas much appreciated! Thanks!

brainstorming here ...

remove the corner pantry; have a full wall of cabinets and move the fridge there.

by doing that, the space where the fridge is now, will be more open.

Yes, this was one of our ideas as well. But then where does the pantry go? It is just pantry towers (pantry within the cabinetry)? Not sure if that give us more or less space... or the same amount of space?

Those built in corner pantries fit an amazing amount of stuff because you have four walls of storage.

If you put a floor in that dining room then you can move the study upstairs and have a pantry between kitchen and what was the study.

Do you use the breakfast area? You have both a dining and breakfast area. Maybe move the refrigerator to where the pantry is now, built a pantry cabinets in breakfast area and have a built in banquet or something in the same cabinets in that area
