Square Kitchen Island

A U-shape kitchen design keeps work zones compact and functional.

Square kitchen islands, such as this one, can make use of open floor space in a large kitchen, creating a more cozy, U-shape layout and adding counter space, additional storage, and a second sink. The six-burner range, visible from the front door, is the main-level focal point of the kitchen design. A walnut-finish base and black granite countertop distinguish the island.
