Does your kitchen have a kitchen island? Oh, please let me know and make me dream. My current kitchen is far too small to even accommodate a small table (not to start on the tiny countertop space I have to cook). I happened upon this bunch of prettier than pretty kitchen islands lately and I had to make a post about them. To make us all dream, that is.

In my dream future home, there is going to be a big bright kitchen with meters of countertop space, cabinetry abundance, ample daylight entering through the large windows (that will overlook to the beautiful countryside- of, course) and stylish lighting fixtures to create a bright and welcoming atmosphere when the sun sets.

Above all these, my dream kitchen will have a large sturdy island in the middle. I'd like it to be made of wood, thick unrefined wooden beams and a sleek marble countertop for contrast. It will have a sink (I've always wanted to do the dishes in the middle of the room), cabinets and shelves, a place to sit and have breakfast and impressive pendant lights right above. A kitchen island feels like a gathering spot, where facilities and fun join the family together. We used to have a large dining table in the house I grew up in and it definitely was the meeting point of our family. I know a kitchen island can do the same in my future home. So, I'm asking you again; does your kitchen have an island? How is it? Do you prefer it to a kitchen table? I'd love to see how you feel about it!

You always find the loveliest photos of the loveliest places! I dream of having a kitchen island... *sigh* Someday maybe!
ReplyDeleteAll kitchens looks beautiful, but I am sorry to say that they are all based on single idea. The only difference is of table and lamps.

ReplyDeleteBefore making kitchen island of your desire, it is important to get the right plan.
