Kitchen island cabinets - increase your storage space
Welcome to the age of the kitchen islands! As the increase in kitchen island popularity grows, the need for quality kitchen island cabinets has been growing in proportion. New kitchen island cabinets can give you an invaluable amount of kitchen storage space for your cookware, recipe books and other odds-n-ends.
Below are a few great ideas for your kitchen island cabinets.
Let’s start with distance and spacing first. As you plan to install your kitchen island cabinets, consider how much spacing needs to go between your kitchen cabinets and your walkway.
Open up these drawers (hypothetically if your kitchen island exists only on paper right now!) Is there enough room for you? Most designers recommend a minimum of 36-42” between the island the surrounding kitchen cabinets for a walkway and plenty of room to open your island cabinets.
If you plan to place the cabinets near the oven or fridge, try opening both the cabinets and the appliance doors at the same time. Is there a conflict? You might run into this problem in real life. Designers suggest a minimum of 42” between the oven and other appliances from your kitchen island cabinets for safety and usability procedures.
What about the actual color of the island cabinets? Should they match with the surrounding kitchen cabinets? Only if you want them to! Many people have designed their cabinets to be a slightly different shade than their other cabinets for a taste in contrast. An upgrade in kitchen island cabinets ensures that your kitchen island will be the centerpiece of your new kitchen environment.
Try a new finish for the island cabinets for an emphasis away from the standard surrounding cabinets. Place unusual fixtures or lighting schemes overhead and explore the creative options your kitchen island cabinets can give you.
Use your kitchen island cabinets as an opportunity to store your entertainment supplies, such as bar items that you don’t use everyday. Oddly-shaped jiggers, shakers and glasses can go into a customized island cabinet oversized specifically to accommodate these items. In this way, you can have them at easy range for entertaining purposes, but won’t run into these items on a daily basis.
Let kitchen island cabinets be a wonderful addition to your new kitchen atmosphere.
