Great Ways to Update Your Kitchen Island

 


Black-and-White Island
Dark-walnut floors, green soapstone counters, and custom stools (painted Benjamin Moore's Phelps Black) bring weight to the kitchen's white island in this Washington, D.C., home




Light and Dark
Offsetting the gleaming white appliances in this California home: an island with dark soapstone counters and backsplashes, as well as ash cabinetry painted a muted gray-green (Paris Gray by Annie Sloan Chalk Paint). 

New Use for an Old Table
The late-1800s Belgian butcher's table, now a kitchen island, still bears traces of newsprint from the table's hardworking industrial days. The owner of this Georgia home left the Carrara marble counters unhoned to show wear.



Shades of Brown
In this Georgia lake house, soapstone counters and a matching backsplash complement the kitchen's custom cabinetry, including an island framed with salvaged heart-pine beams.





 
A Bright Spot
A custom island, topped with sheet metal, echoes this Georgia home's barnwood beams. Why stop at the usual overheads? Additional sconces make any countertop an enlightened place for prep work.




A Dash of Color
Windsor stools and a red-patterned rug sit in front of the kitchen's island in this Pennsylvania home. Boat hardware takes a supporting role as kitchen cabinet latches.





Steely White
Stainless steel countertops bring a hint of industrial gleam to the kitchen of this Kansas home. Furnished with Pottery Barn stools painted white to match the custom cabinets, the island provides a place to sit while prepping food. 

Farmhouse Design
The kitchen island in this Ohio home boasts a zinc top crafted by a local metal shop and has a built-in plate rack for stealthy storage. Subway tile from Home Depot forms the backsplash.
