Hi Joy. A few questions: 1) you could have a pocket door into the pantry, unless there are reasons you definitely don't want a door? The beauty of a pocket door is it can be open all the time if you want, but if you do run noisy appliances in there (blender, coffee grinder, Thermomix, etc) you may appreciate being able to contain the noise. 2) slide out shelves under bench-do you mean drawers? Drawers hold more and it's much easier to find and access things. You could have soft close drawers. 3) it looks like the depth of pantry space is 1.4m. Is that correct? If you were to have a sink where would you place it? There doesn't appear to be enough depth to the room to allow for two benches, one to house a sink. So, would you have sink on the outside wall? If you don't think you would use a sink, then don't have one. They take up some space that you may not want to sacrifice. Just speaking from my own experience now: I have a butler's pantry, with a pocket door, with a sink (we use it every day), two benches, lots of drawers, an open pantry to house just about anything (larger appliances, etc), and a narrow open shelving unit that sits on one part of a bench (for drink glasses and spirits). You could easily have a wine cabinet built into part of your pantry shelving unit-maybe high enough off floor so little children cannot reach bottles. I'll attach photos of both sides of my pantry so you can visualise it better. We store our wine in purpose-built unit built into our hallway wall. I'll attach a photo of that in case it gives you some ideas. I hope this is helpful. Best wishes.

I have almost the exact space in a new build, I will have an L bench from back wall along what is the side with your robe. I will put a small round sink in the dead corner as this will be one of those awkward spaces to get to. 1/2 depth shelving on the wall above bench if possible. I am not putting a door in as this work area will be hidden well from the main kitchen space.

Your kitchen seems quite small, with very limited bench space. I think your WIP is too large or could be reduced to allow you more usable kitchen.

great size for walk in pantry and i agree with Annb, have an internal slider (with high up lock to keep out the little kids)....drawers are great in the kitchen but for pantry i prefer open shelves sized to suit the items stored: there's space for a freezer and i suggest 40cm deep counter along the long wall and 60cm deep crossways with power points for appliances to be ready to use, open shelves above and below the counter for extra crockery, serving ware, casseroles, wine, larger packages etc This would still allow room for the other long wall of shallow shelves for cans, bottles, packets, glasses etc and still leave a walkway about 75cm wide You should consider ventilation if you want to cook in here but i've slightly rearranged the laundry to add some extra counter for out of sight cooking and dirty dishes with space underneath for clothes basket and garbage bins as well as a full width cupboard for ironing board, broom, toys, linen, dirty clothes etc Unfortunately i can't photograph my similar pantry but i've attached a plan to illustrate my suggestions...
