A kitchen island is an important element in most kitchens, and though there are layouts without it, it’s still a very desired piece as in modern and contemporary kitchens, it occupies a special place, being the element that usually separates the kitchen area from the living space. Let’s find out how to make your kitchen island more functional as spare space is precious.
Most often, a kitchen island also doubles as a bar, breakfast table, a storage cabinet and similar options, that is why the seating also has an important role in determining the overall look and function of the whole space. Figuring out the best design option for the kitchen island and seating can be a real challenge. Stools are the most popular solution – you just choose part of your kitchen island and add stools there.
