CONCEPTS 1
This is the kind of large island layout that I'd like to replicate. I have seen these large islands a lot on kitchens that are wide, but not very long; This is one of the few I've seen in a longer/narrower space that is more like mine. I want my cooktop on the end of the island closest to other appliances vs. behind.
I like this layout and the general materials/finished. I also like the T-shape because it gives more width/workspace on the end with the cooktop, but I'm just not sure how that would play out in my kitchen. Given where the island would have to be positioned, if I were to do that, mine would probably have to be an L shape vs. T. I also prefer for the seating portion of the island to be same level as workspace or potentially higher (bar height) if it's multi-level.
I kind of like the variance in materials, surfaces and heights here; although I think I'll probably keep mine more clean and simple than this.
