It’s summer, which means it’s time to find ways to relax and enjoy. Summer-mode might even have you imagining the perfect island. Maybe it’s a place where you can gather with friends and family. Maybe it’s where you can pull up a stool and have a great meal. Or maybe it focuses on functional storage and perfect flow. By now you know we’re not talking about sand and waves—instead, something much better and more lasting!

A few reasons the perfect kitchen island will make every day a breeze:

1. Storage Opportunity.

Everyone wants an organized kitchen, and the perfect island can add ample and creative storage—putting essential items right at your fingertips in your prep space.

2. Stylish Focal Point.

An island gives you a great spot to add diversity and interest to your kitchen design. Choose a beautiful countertop and cabinetry that complements the rest of the kitchen.

3. Functional Home for Utilities.

A smart kitchen design can make the ultimate use of the island for accessories and utilities. Islands can be the home for your sink, cooktop, microwave, beverage fridge, or refrigerator drawers.

4. Expanded Eating and Entertaining Space.

An island can make the perfect spot for your family to gather at for casual meals, snacks after school or work, or while you prepare dinner. Lots of memories can be made at your island hub!

5. Perfect Prep Space.

Home chefs love an oversized prep space that allows you plenty of space to move around and a view of the activity in the house while you work.
