If I'm picturing this right can you (meaning the carpenter) furr the wall out above the cabinets the extra two inches.
Or, if the cabinets are at either side of the ceiling that runs parallel why can't you use pendants? Or, if they're along the wall with the slope and you can't use pendants aren't you already using sidewalls on the opposite walls with the slope. I've just got an orthographic picture in my head from my old drafting book of a box with a shed roof and I'm putting a box representing the cabinets on all the walls. I see the 14" depth, the three feet from the ceiling to the top of the interior box, and the length is irrelevant. Maybe I'm making the room too big in my head?
