When wish-list is a bad word...
I design kitchens and for some unknown reason (female) clients are requesting paper towel holders built into a drawer. I stopped asking for their 'wish-list' of kitchen gadgets because they spend hours searching sites like Houzz and Pinterest for photos of things that often don't belong together.Contemporary or Italian styles don't get fluted mouldings, wood crown moulding and turned wooden legs on the island. Just because you saw it online doesn't make it right.
That makes as much sense as foam dice and dingle-balls on a Mercedes!
But, I've got to do these freaking drawers that hold paper towels.
These clients must be different as nearly every time I reach for a paper towel, my hands are wet! That means the door below it will get water splashed on it. Duh...
I received a request to put one over the trash drawer... you know the place with smelly garbage just inches away. That should give you a warm, fuzzy feeling when you pull a paper towel to wipe your face!

Taco Bell & other fine establishments.
They fit real nice in a back pocket or paper bag if
Quantity is desired...along with fine condiments.
However, I'm taller than most women, have no children at home, and don't spend hours cooking. But I would like to put white tiles over the 1970's brown ones, and have many more power points, and USB chargers.
The last reno I did, it seemed important to have a very impractical hand basin in the bathroom, a $600 tap over it, and a linear shower drain that required a team of tradesmen to complete at ridiculous cost. Then she demanded fluorescent tubes to light the lounge room, no joke, the kind you'd see in an underground car park... But as you'd know, the client is always right.
