The Importance of a Kitchen Island

Kitchen islands have become one of the quintessential aspects of a modern kitchen. Its significance differs from one person to another in terms of taste, kitchen configuration and way of living however there are common benefits applicable across everyone.



1. Extended Work Surface Area: Kitchen islands provide more room for preparing foodstuff, cooking and baking.

2. Storage Facilities: Most islands come with extra cupboards and drawers which helps in storing cooking equipment such as pans or even small gadgets used in the kitchen.

3. Social Place: When family and friends come together at the island it becomes a place where informal meals can be taken or casual talk done while preparing food.

4. The Sitting Arrangement: Bar stools are placed on overhangs at many islands allowing them to serve as places where quick bites may be taken.

5. Efficiency: In this way, an island improves motion in your kitchen by creating cooking zones as well as areas meant for preparing ingredients or eating.

6. Design Element: A kitchen island could act like an anchor point around which you can design other items to make sense aesthetically. 

7. Appliance Integration: Some appliances such as cook tops, sinks or dishwashers have been integrated within some islands resulting in a better utilization of the available space in the kitchen. 

In summary, an island will unlock and add new discoveries to a kitchen’s function, especially to its social aspects!
