Kitchen islands are something that has evolved over time. Due to the open living trend the kitchen island has developed into a modern piece of furniture. The island has to serve various users performing various functions and this is where designing an island is a combination of engineering and art. The island needs to be functional and cater for seating, food prep, cooking as well as socialising but with that it also needs to make a statement.
This is the artistic part of the modern kitchen island. The luxury is found not so much in the island itself but in the story it is telling. It needs to fuse effortlessly with the surrounding interior while at the same time also have enough weight to stand on its own.
