Inspiring Designs: Kitchen Islands

Truly the epicenter of the home, today’s kitchen reigns supreme as a bustling, multi-purpose space, and the all-important kitchen island is command central. Prep station, storage area, dining table, socializing hub, and homework central – a kitchen island can be all these things and more. There’s seemingly no end to what an island can do, and there’s no shortage of styles either. Here’s a look at a range of unique island styles to inspire your kitchen design dreams and make your home rum more efficiently.

There's no lack of work surface or storage in this grand, Mediterranean style kitchen island. Plus, extra countertop overhang on three sides offers plenty of room for dining or other seated activities. 
An unusual concrete island is a cool counterpoint to the classic elements (like shaker doors and the subway tile backsplash), lending an industrial chic vibe to this eclectic kitchen. 
Who says a kitchen island must be rectangular? The curvy shape of the island adds softness and a feminine vibe to this otherwise geometric space. 
Perhaps not for everyone, this "boat island" shows that you are only limited by your imagination when it comes to kitchen island design!
A circular island in a narrow, linear space allows for extra storage and seating. It's also a cool way for home chefs to take center stage while guests look on from their countertop-height perches to enjoy the show. 
Plenty of seating, ample storage underneath, and built-in appliances in this transitional island are what kitchen dreams are made of.
You don't have to settle for the standard twelve inches of island overhang when your countertops have the proper support brackets. Generous overhangs such as on this island allow for extra storage underneath, plenty of leg room, and no "knee-knocking!"
