How the Kitchen Island Is Shaping American Homes



The kitchen island has become an integral part of today’s home, and it continues to evolve. Here to discuss the reasons for the popularity of the kitchen island is kitchen renovation expert DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Wilmington.

Why Kitchen Islands Are So Popular

The popularity of the kitchen island can be attributed to three factors:

  1. Social – The island is a gathering place for families throughout the day. It enables family members to multitask. For example, parents can cook while chatting with their kids as they do their homework.

  2. Functional – Who can say no to more countertop and storage space? If you enjoy cooking, you’ll appreciate the additional prep area that you can get from a kitchen island.

  3. Aesthetic – Adding an island to your kitchen can elevate its design by providing a beautiful focal point for the room.

Possibilities for the Kitchen Island

Of course, kitchen islands aren’t limited to the three advantages mentioned above. For more inspiration, ask a kitchen remodeler about kitchen island installations they’ve done before and find out the specific purposes for which the islands were built.

Some homeowners have an island installed to serve as a casual dining space that allows family members to eat on the go. According to some experts, this is a clear direction of where kitchen islands are headed, in terms of their function. It’s also becoming more common for cooking to be a primary purpose of kitchen islands as well.
