Welcome a waterfall edge worktopA waterfall worktop edge on an island, as seen here, can be a striking statement. It’s easily achieved by continuing the island worktop surface down either one or usually both sides of the island, so it ‘cascades’ to the floor. Waterfall islands make a sleek and clean statement so are best suited for modern kitchens, though they can work for traditional spaces too – search Houzz photos for ideas. Your waterfall edge could incorporate a similar colour palette to your island furniture, or opt for a striking contrast to really establish it as the focal point of the room. As well as being easy on the eye, waterfall edges are practical too. A simple overhang allows your island to also be used as a breakfast bar, with space for chairs to be tucked neatly underneath.
There are more possibilities…What’s the next step for pantry cupboard fans? The walk-in larder, of course. While an entire walk-in space dedicated to food storage might seem like a pipe dream for those of us working with modest kitchen dimensions, our previously mentioned Kitchen Trends Study 2017 revealed that nearly one in 10 of respondents had made space in their new kitchen for a full, walk-in pantry. Which begs the question: could the walk-in pantry be the new walk-in wardrobe? Let us know your thoughts in the Comments section.
