A Kitchen Island Can Transform Your Kitchen

Open floor plans are becoming more and more popular. Open floor plans allow you to be in the kitchen when you host parties and still easily interact with your guest at the same time. A kitchen Island is a great addition to any open floor plan and transforms your kitchen in a big way! From adding style and its functionality, a kitchen island may be what you should add to your kitchen in 2018. Ragan Cabinets blog this week will feature how a kitchen island can transform your kitchen, and why you should install one in your kitchen.


Add a Pop of Color 

A popular way to add color to your kitchen without overdoing it is to choose a color for your island. If you like the classic look of wood cabinets, adding color to your kitchen island is a great way to add a stylish look to your kitchen.

Create a Central Work Area 

There is a lot of functionality and options when it comes to a kitchen island. Your kitchen island can include a range, sink, dishwasher, or extra cabinet storage. The possibilities are endless, you just have to decide the features that matter the most to your personal style. Ragan Cabinets also offers some great cabinet accessories to feature in your island, such as a custom wine rack! If you choose to not put a sink in your island, one of the best features an island has in the extra countertop space! Most people who use their kitchens a lot will agree that you can never have too much counter space.

Create an Additional Eating Area 

Another benefit to adding an island to your kitchen is you can add an additional place to eat. Whether you want to eat breakfast there or you host parties that require more seating, an island is a great solution. There a lot of options for making your island with additional seating, contact your Lake of the Ozarks cabinet shop to discuss the vision you have for your kitchen! Consider making your island different heights.The lower level can be used for your work area and the higher area can be used for your eating space. Purchasing unique barstools can add style to your kitchen, and help make your new kitchen island the focal point of your kitchen.   

Change Up the Counter Top 

You don't have to use the same material for your island countertop as you did for the rest of your counters. Consider using a different material for your kitchen island to make it stand out. Use tile or a butcher block as your material. A butcher block adds a unique style to your kitchen and it can function as a cutting board at the same time!

Tap your sense of style by adding an island to your kitchen! There are so many benefits, and we know you won't regret it when you create a beautiful design that becomes the focal point of your kitchen. From additional cabinet space, countertop space, and seating an island is a great addition to any kitchen. When you are ready to design your Lake of the Ozarks kitchen, contact Ragan Cabinets!
