We have a somewhat similar kitchen layout (I also have a coffee bar lol) and I really think the 6" straight down the room would work with this, especially since you'll be adding cabinets to the room. Assuming they're standard cabinets with 2' of depth, you'll be having recessed lighting very close to the cabinets if it goes the length of the hallway. That would be my only concern. I still think it'll look fine. A 6" wafer will add a lot more coverage than you'd expect, especially if they're LED.

We did GE Cync Smart Wafers which were a really easy install (minus cutting through the ceiling for about 20') and I will try to get a photo up later.

I'm glad to hear people are liking the puck wafers. I was concerned they would look cheap but maybe in overthinking it like I have with everything in this kitchen

The guys are great labor and will do anything I ask but that puts me in the position of being the default design idiot who missed something major so I stay awake at night going over and over it.

Honestly y'all gave me 2 great suggestions I wouldn't have thought about.. The hidden outlet strips and the spigot behind the coffeemaker.

I guarantee that spigot will get used every single day while the wife's stove filler maybe once or twice a week.

ETA my wife has the design in her head.. I'm just the one making sure everything will fit and electrical, vent pipe and plumbing are in the right places. She could care less about those things.
