Bespoke Kitchen Islands

Maximise your kitchen's potential with bespoke islands and peninsulas for more storage, seating, work surface and style.

A modern kitchen with light green cabinets, a marble-topped island with an induction cooktop, wicker bar stools, and stainless steel appliances. Pendant lights hang above the island, and a potted plant adds greenery to the space.

If you're lucky enough to have a spacious kitchen an island is the ideal way to maximise your storage, work area and seating. And for kitchens of almost any size you really should consider a peninsula. As well as providing a massive wow-factor, our islands and peninsulas are immaculately tailored to your individual space and needs.

Island Storage

Create loads of extra storage space and keep your kitchen looking clean and uncluttered with integrated cabinets and drawers. And with bespoke doors and handles in the colours and materials of your choice, your island can really set the tone of your kitchen style.

Island seating

Eating, working, arts and crafts… the kitchen is where all life happens. Whether it’s a classic trio of bar stools or anything else, we can help you choose the right kind of island seating for your lifestyle, and then build the bespoke island and countertop to fit it.

Waterfall Islands

For a sensational kitchen centrepiece nothing beats a waterfall island, where the worktop material cascades seamlessly all the way down to the floor. It’s a perfect way to bring material, colour and visual drama into your kitchen design. Waterfall surfaces can flow down the sides of an island or onto a second peninsula, and they work brilliantly with island seating areas.

Island Appliances

Hobs, sinks, quooker taps, dishwashers… we can incorporate your kitchen appliances into a beautiful bespoke island for a sleek seamless look and maximum ergonomic functionality. Make your kitchen a joy to cook in!

Breakfast Bars

Whether it’s that early morning moment of tranquillity alone with a cup of coffee, or the controlled chaos of the kids’ cereal time, a well-made breakfast bar makes kitchen life better. For maximum style and practicality, how about a split-level island with seating and storage?

L-Shaped Islands

An L-shaped island is a great way to create a special zone in your kitchen, such as a dedicated cooking area or a bar – and with more than a little wow factor. We can build a completely bespoke island that’s the perfect size – and shape – for your space.

Butcher's Block Island Worktops

Hard-wearing and durable, a butcher’s block worktop crafted from high quality timber gives you acres of space for food prep – and they look gorgeous too.

Mobile Islands

Rolling islands on casters are great for smaller kitchens, giving you the convenience of all that additional worktop and storage space, but with extra flexibility. And there’s no need to compromise on quality and style: we can build a bespoke mobile island in your favourite materials, sized just for your space

Questions & Answers

1

How much space should be around a kitchen island?

To ensure proper functionality, there should be at least 36 to 48 inches (3 to 4 feet) of space between the kitchen island and surrounding cabinets or appliances. This allows for easy movement, door clearance, and safe working space. For kitchens with high traffic or multiple cooks, a wider clearance (around 48 inches) is ideal.

How do I install a kitchen island?

To install a kitchen island, follow these basic steps:

  • Plan the layout: Ensure there's enough space around the island (36-48 inches clearance).
  • Prepare the floor: Depending on the island’s weight, reinforce the floor as needed.
  • Position and level the island: Place the base cabinets in position and use shims to level them.
  • Secure the island: Attach the island base to the floor using brackets or screws.
  • Install the countertop: Once secured, add the countertop, and attach any appliances or electrical outlets as needed. For a professional result, consider hiring a contractor, especially if plumbing or electrical work is involved.

How do I measure kitchen cupboard handles?

To measure kitchen cupboard handles, focus on the centre-to-centre (C-C) distance, which is the space between the screw holes. Use a ruler or tape measure to find the distance between the centres of the holes. You can also measure the handle’s overall length and projection (how far it sticks out) if needed.
