When it comes to kitchen remodeling, there are many ways you can improve the room. You can buy new appliances, repaint the walls or even install kitchen islands. Nowadays, kitchen islands are all the rage for many homeowners. So much so, in fact, that many homeowners are including it in their kitchen remodel plans. Due to this rise to prominence, however, there are many homeowners who are asking: why are kitchen islands so popular?

In this post, Marcela Montoya Remodeling explains why kitchen islands are incredibly popular nowadays.

Social Elements

The social boundaries that kitchen islands break among family and friends is one of the reasons it’s so popular nowadays. In an age when almost everyone is focused on their gadgets and social media, the kitchen island is the perfect place for families to come together after a long day. After all, it allows them to do the cooking, their homework and even some socializing at the same time, bringing everyone closer together.

Functional Elements

Home remodeling experts say that the second reason for the kitchen island’s rise to prominence is its functionality. This is because aside from being a countertop where you can prepare food or do some other work, the kitchen island also provides additional storage space for your kitchen knick knacks. You can even incorporate a sink and stove in it, if you wish, especially if you cook a lot.

Aesthetic Elements 

The final reason for the popularity of kitchen island is its aesthetic appeal. After all, choosing the right kind of kitchen island can help bring the entire room together. Experts speculate that in the future, kitchen islands will be made of different materials compared to the rest of the kitchen. This will make them stand out more and ultimately, become a design object for the room.
