Do You Have Space for an Island?

Islands are often seen as the ‘must have’ for a new bespoke kitchen, particularly with today’s family - sociable kitchen spaces. This is because they not only look great, but also, they act as a visual divide between the social and cooking zones as well as providing extra seating, eating and food preparation areas.

Churchwood Design produces multi-function islands in all styles and shapes; from extra long islands, split level islands and islands with curves.

However, for those thinking about incorporating an island into their new bespoke kitchen, you need to remember that ideally, you require around 1 metres space (or 3ft in old money) between the sides / outer edges of an island and the wall-base cabinets. The reason for this is to allow enough space to manoeuvre around the island as well as to fully open cabinet doors.

For those that would like an island but perhaps are limited on space, all is not lost. It might be that Churchwood Design can create a peninsular arrangement with a base cabinet return - from a run of wall base units OR Churchwood Design can use its custom-made, bespoke manufacturing know how to create a specially designed furniture arrangement - perhaps using curves or reduced depth furniture making the seemingly impossible….possible!
