This island fits the kitchen’s k-shaped footprint. The Sub-Zero refrigerator is paneled to blend with the deep green cabinetry. Other appliances are stainless steel. Limestone countertops and cypress flooring add warmth to the space.

Consider adding a beamed ceiling as a finishing touch to a rustic kitchen. Dark beams add a warm contrast to the knotty pine cabinetry.

The U-shaped layout of this kitchen maximizes available space with corner cabinets and a cooktop placed at a diagonal on the island.

Don’t be afraid to mix multiple types of natural stone – such as granite and marble – with wood cabinets. A custom range hood with wood mantel and a tile backsplash highlight the Wolf range.

Think beyond stainless steel for metal finishes: this kitchen island features a hammered copper counter and hammered pewter pulls and knobs. Wood flooring, beams and walls are made from Alaskan timber.

Cabinetry panels integrate the Sub-Zero refrigerator into the turn-of-the-century farmhouse style of this kitchen. A butcher block countertop and maple floors contrast the dark-stained, Shaker-style cherry cabinets.
