Mr Chong Help! My Wall Is Poking My Stove!

[Herman1609 0]

Hi Mr Chong,

Would like to get your suggestion on how to solve this problem. My stove is currently facing "half a wall", and I've heard that the angle of the facing wall is an arrow pointing towards my stove.

House direction from main door: 80 degrees. Male owner: 1982, female owner: 1982 (both yr of dog)

By right i think best is to extend the facing wall to totally cover the stove, but problem is there is not enough space to do so! If i extend, then cannot walk already! 1 idea given by the contractor is to build out a round wooden "cabinet", so the angle of the wall is rounded, instead of 90 degrees angle. However it still will not "cover" the entire stove. Is that also ok? Or is there anything else i can do? Grow "plants" on that wall? Can use glass to build something to round up that angle? Lastly, is it ok for the stove to be viewable from the door/living room, or is it better to build a door or curtain at kitchen's doorway to hide it from view?

Thanks a lot for your advise,

Darren

Hello

It is quite flexible to solve your problem. You can shift the stove. You can put up a kitchen door. You can instal a wall cabinet along the kitchen wall to block. I think your contractor should be more creative than me once you tell himm your problem.

Even then, you should not overlook that your stove is facing the window. Get your window tinted or place a cardboard/ plank beside etc to protect your stove.
