The kitchen is the heart of a home, and the heart of the kitchen is the island. Whether you are looking to add an island for the first time, reconfigure one to add updated features, or enlarge a smaller island to make it grander, islands are essential additions to the kitchen.
You can never have too much storage space in a kitchen. Islands are the perfect way to add storage while providing a beautiful aesthetic feature to your home. Your new island will easily become the main attraction for your family. It is the perfect place for kids to pull up a stool and finish their homework, and it provides a place for friends and family to gather while you are making dinner. With an abundance of open counter space, your island can even serve as a place to prep food for a special dinner. From an entertaining perspective, an island can be a spot where your guests gather to enjoy appetizers, and it can also be a great place to make and serve your signature cocktail.
The kitchen island is prime real estate, and it’s essential to make the most of the space. When designing a new kitchen island or even enlarging an existing one, the final product is completely customizable. From butcher block to concrete, to marble, your surface should reflect your personal style and the design of your home. To add additional functionality to your kitchen, you can add features such as a prep sink, refrigerator and microwave drawers, or additional cooking surfaces. Another major asset of adding an island to your kitchen is the additional seating you gain. Will your space allow you to add an island to accommodate two additional seats or six? Do you want backless industrial barstools or cushioned high-back swivel chairs? The design options are endless, so it is no surprise that adding a kitchen island is one of the most popular things that people do when designing or remodeling a kitchen. Adding a kitchen island to the heart of your home can turn your kitchen dreams into a reality.
