Budget-Friendly Option
When the objective is rustic simplicity, there's no need to spend lots on custom cabinetry and granite countertops, especially on a kitchen island. For this particular kitchen remodel, while stools brightened from Walmart paint purchased off the rack in Lowe's transformed oak cabinets and topped with the birch slabs of Ikea.
Marble Countertop
To contrast the sweeping wood-paneled ceilings and dark wooden floors, Birmingham designer Beth McMillan chosen cool-toned Carrara marble for the kitchen countertops.
Handcrafted Style
At the kitchen of this Connecticut home, a classic table serves as a prep island.
Farmhouse Design
The kitchen island within this Ohio house boasts a zinc top crafted with a local metal shop and has an integrated plate rack to get stealthy storage. The backsplash is formed by subway tile from Home Depot.
Minimalist
Rafters swathed in a dreamy shade of blue makes the room feel like it stretches to the sky, even though a minimalist island lands the space in this cabin.
Black-and-White Island
Dark-walnut floors, green soapstone counters, and custom stools (painted Benjamin Moore's Phelps Black) attract weight to the kitchen's white island in this Washington, D.C., home. Trims and the built-ins are painted Bancroft White by Darryl Carter Colors from Benjamin Moore.

Extra Storage
What's hiding in the island? Just a little bit of everything! This older homes drygoods, office equipment, and even wrapping papers that are assorted.
Dark and Light
Offsetting the gleaming white appliances within this California house: an island with dark soapstone counters and backsplashes, as well as walnut cabinetry painted a muted gray-green (Paris Gray by Annie Sloan Chalk Paint). The wicker stools are by Palecek.
Salvaged Finds
With still-functioning pulleys, these industrial and salvaged light fixtures (once utilized in a billiard hall) make for eye-catching (and hardworking) task lighting above the island in this coastal cottage.
