Choose your island style

Start with the layout that best matches how you cook, store and use your kitchen.

  • Island with storage

    Make the most of drawers, cupboards and open shelving in your island layout.

  • Island with seating

    Consider overhangs, panel finishes and stool clearance if you plan to sit at your island.

  • Freestanding-style island

    Posts and panels can help create a standalone centrepiece look.

  • Painted contrast island

    A contrasting colour can help your island stand out from perimeter cabinets.

Planning your kitchen island

A few key things to think about before you start.

Every room is different. Use this checklist as a starting point, and please contact us if you would like help checking what may work in your space.

  • Space & clearance — Allow room to move, open doors and pull out drawers comfortably.
  • Seating & overhangs — Plan stool space and worktop overhang before ordering panels.
  • Storage & access — Decide which sides need drawers, cupboards or open shelving.
  • Plumbing & electrics — Confirm sink, tap and socket positions early with your installer.
  • Style & finish — Match or contrast with perimeter cabinets; confirm colour and hardware.
  • Purpose — Prep zone, seating hub, storage block or mixed use — design around daily use.
