Creative curves: Kitchen island design with Woodstock Furniture

A stylish and functional, central island is one of the most frequent requests homeowners make when commissioning luxury, British furniture specialist Woodstock Furniture to design their bespoke kitchen

Their clients tend to be looking for versatile, distinctive furniture in the kitchen, which will not only create a social hub and casual dining area but can offer additional storage space, house appliances and provide a seamless divide between the working kitchen and remaining space.

Andrew Hall, managing director and chief designer at Woodstock Furniture, gives his expert advice on the latest trends in kitchen island design: “The trend for curved kitchen islands breaks up the geometric, straight lines you are likely to find in some modern kitchen designs. This move away from the angular look is aesthetically appealing in open-plan kitchens where the boundaries blend between the cooking and living space. The visual impact can be striking especially if you use curves to create a central part of your kitchen design – a curved island unit will instantly provide a focal point in a kitchen and will soften the overall look.

Andrew adds: “Clever use of a curved island unit will enable you to distinguish cooking and dining zones in your kitchen. Creating a striking island design will naturally draw your eye into the space and the furniture can provide a perfect cooking platform where friends and family are able to gather round as you prepare food and cook.”
