Island Kitchens
Where space permits, a kitchen island epitomizes a fully luxurious addition to your home. They are great for congregating around with friends and family, and spacious enough to make light work of preparing for, and entertaining guests. Newark Interiors are frequently asked to design kitchens with islands and as a result have designed and installed kitchen islands in a wide variety of styles and configurations. Newark Interiors’s designers have developed the expertise to advise you on the aesthetics and latest trends, but also on the practicalities of such designs. The information below will help give you some food for thought, but to get the best advice personalised to your specific circumstances it is well worth a trip to our beautiful Showroom.
Working Kitchen Islands
Think about what you want to do at your kitchen island from the very early stages of your kitchen design process. This is particularly important if you intend to use it as a fully-functional, working area of your kitchen. You will need to think about ‘first fix’ requirements for the mechanical and ventilation supplies your working island will require.
If you wish to have your sink on the island, you will need to consider how to connect water feed and waste pipes, ensuring you have sufficient ‘fall’ for water to leave under gravity back to the kitchen’s main waste outlet.
