Parallel Kitchen With An Island

If your kitchen has a lot of room, then you can have an island installed in it. The inclusion of an island can serve many purposes like storage, prep, chopping, and serving. Before installing an island, it is essential to decide the width and depth of it based on the availability of space in your cooking area. It is because if your island is too big, your kitchen will feel cramped and also the working triangle will get disturbed. In case, if your island is too small, you will have difficulty in accomplishing the above-mentioned tasks – i.e. storage, prep, chopping, and serving. When turning the island into a dine-in area, cramming in too many seats should be avoided so that people will not be elbowing each other when they dine.
