It's where morning coffee happens, homework gets done, guests gather while you cook, and Sunday roasts are carved. It's the heart of the heart of your home. Our bespoke kitchen islands are designed to work exactly the way you need them to, whether that's housing a prep sink and dishwasher, providing extra storage, creating a breakfast bar for the family, or simply giving you more worktop space. Each island is handcrafted in our workshop and designed to complement your existing kitchen or form the centrepiece of a complete redesign. ## What Sets Us Apart ### Designed for Your Life Tell us how you cook, how you entertain, how your family uses the kitchen. We'll design an island that fits. ### Integrated or Freestanding Choose a fully fitted island with integrated appliances and plumbing, or a freestanding piece you can take with you if you move. ### Storage Solutions Deep pan drawers, open shelving, wine racks, appliance garages. We design storage around what you actually need to store. ### Statement or Subtle Match your existing cabinetry for a seamless look, or choose a contrasting colour and material to make your island a focal point. ## Materials & Options Element Options Carcass Oak MFC, Walnut MFC Doors & Panels Solid tulipwood Worktop Timber, granite, quartz, marble, stainless steel Features Breakfast bar overhang, wine rack, open shelving, integrated bins Appliances We accommodate any brand: sink, hob, dishwasher, wine cooler ## Dimensions We've Built Compact prep islands from 1200mm × 600mm Family islands up to 3000mm × 1200mm L-shaped and curved designs ## Frequently Asked Questions ### Can you add an island to my existing kitchen? ### Can islands include a hob or sink? ### Do you supply the worktop?
