pop up outlet in same material as countertop - possible?

Pop up outlets near sink. Safe? Better than in the center of the island.

Stools on edge of island
Q
Photo
stools at end of island AND outlets. I would paint or create faceplates so outlets aren't as obvious
Q
Photo
Hide outlets on island under stool edge?
Q
Photo
Stools at end of island. I would want it less rounded
Q

our project: Suppose the "third shelf" over the dishwasher are hooks (for mugs, etc.) instead?
Q
Photo
Imagine this counter as an island. Suspended shelves over sink & dishwasher, pendant lights over stool seating.
Q
Photo
Possible! Hanging shelves at island with stool seating
Q
Photo
Note how there is one shelf above the sink, shelves added over dishwasher.
Q
Photo
Island counter top overhangs at the corner to make room for seating on both sides.

Another view of shelves over sink island.
Our project: cut shelves short, add stools to wrap around end of counter, widen counter for sink so the shelves are not directly over sink.
Q
Photo
Suspended shelves - stop before end of counter. Our project: put stools at end of counter. Widen island for room for a sink, shelves are not over sink.
Q
Photo
More suspended shelves. Thin black shelves?
Q
Photo
Mind the open shelf, sink, and stools all at the island.
Our project: sink and stool counter all one height. Shelves descend where stools end (only 1 or 2 stools along the length of the counter)
Q
Photo
Mid-century modern feel. Is it partly the height in the shelves?
What if we added a third shelf down over the dishwasher?
Q
Photo
Open shelves over sink space. I would prefer the shelves to not be directly over the sink.
Q
Photo
shelves acting as a room divider.
for our project: Mind the shelf & stool proximity, so no one whacks their head on the corner of the shelf getting up from the stool
Q
Photo
plants, white dishes & glass only on shelves. simple rods or wires suspension. Also, shelves extend over tiled wall
Q
Photo
Shelves look nice and clean. Is it the window and sparseness of objects? or is it the wood width and wires? Consider running a shelf over the new window?
Q
Photo
I DON'T LIKE the end of the shelves being open. I think people will whack their heads on the open corners
Q
Photo
Note the lip on the back of the shelves to prevent dishes from falling out the back, visual aid in creating an open wall from the backside
Q
Photo
Shelves act as dividing wall - push sink out 15", use only 2 shelves? Or stagger the use of 2 shelves over sink, 3 over dishwasher
Q
Photo
Suspended shelves over sink, reachable if they are behind the sink 15"?
Q
Photo
Possible solution - raise the counter for stools
Q
Photo
Island overhang for stool seating - space idea: cookbook shelves? If the space can't be used for drawers pulling into the kitchen
Q
Photo
Countertop overhang, another angle
Q
Photo
Island counter top overhangs at the corner, leaving room for seating at the corner
Q
Photo
Probably too curved for us, but note how the stools round out the corner. We want to seat two at the width, and another one (or two?) at the length
Q
Photo
Note how island stool space ends and a "wall" begins on the island. Hanging shelves over "wall space"
Q
Photo
Hanging shelves over the island, above sink and dishwasher
electrical outlet strip for island? near stools?
