There's so much you can do with a kitchen island! The design you establish enables you to create a statement in numerous ways, for example, the sheer size of the island can have a major visual impact, tying an entire space together providing both work space, storage and a place for people to gather. The use of accent color, alternating material and finish selections can add further inspiration. The island may be that one space in a kitchen that enables you to really make a lasting statement.
