I am using prefinished plywood for the cases and drawer sides.

Do you really want your oven resting so close to the floor? Seems like a weak point in the project to me. You might also consider using a combination vent hood/microwave rather than separate units.

Bring your fridge cabinet out the same depth as the fridge and add a gable down the left side. Make sure its deep enough so the counter can terminate into the side of the gable.

Thank you both for the input. The oven is actually 4.75 inches above the floor as shown. Most of the cabs have a separate 4 inch toe kick. The bottom rail temporarily shows as 3/4 inch, which will change as soon as the real clearance factor between the gas cook top and the oven is known. I will make a note to Rob about showing the detached toe kick.

Brett, I like the idea but will you have a functioning drawer under the cook top?
I have a 3 drawer base under my cook top but the ovens are in another place.
Can't wait to see it done!

Not quite sure what you mean when you say gable in this application. Do you mean a partition (panel) like a sheet of plywood down to the floor at the depth of the refrigerator?

You should make your cabinets seamless. On cabinets that are the same depth--make one of the stiles 0. In other words, instead of making separate boxes-make just one--let them share the same stile. The program will make them one. The individual pictures will show individual boxes, but when you print out bulk lists they will be one--including the backs. Just a suggestion! Mike
