Whether you are a villa or a large flat, or a large house, or even a small house, as long as you have the space for an open kitchen, I suggest you try to make an island, because the island itself has a strong functionality and form.
There is no specific definition of an kitchen island, but it is actually a small countertop in an open kitchen. You can think of it as part of a cabinet, a kitchen countertop. The island is usually divided into freestanding, extension and peninsula.
Free standing
The independent center island is suitable for relatively large spaces. It is the boundary between the kitchen and other spaces. Whether it is functional or visual, it is an important role in the kitchen!
Extended
Arranged in a line-shaped layout, the fixed cabinets and the extended countertops have strong ductility and functionality. The extended countertop not only increases the operating area of the operating table, but can also be used as a dining table.
Semi-island
The peninsula is designed to maximize the use of space and is an efficient layout suitable for small and medium-sized kitchens. The peninsula table with the same height as the floor counter allows you to gain more work surfaces, while the raised bar-type peninsula table can cover the messy operation area, and use different forms of peninsula design to optimize the space.
The island table is rich in functions. In addition to the most basic food preparation table, it can also act as a dining table, cooking area, storage cabinet, partition, bar, desk, work table, etc., which can be described as “multi-purpose”.
The island table greatly increases the storage space of the kitchen, not only the part of the countertop, but the whole of it can be used, and it is very practical. Set up drawers, hidden compartments and shelves, with a very powerful storage function, according to the usage habits, the kitchen utensils can be classified and arranged for easy access.
