Create a Design Focal Point in the Heart of Your Home
A welcoming kitchen always brings an eager audience — and it might be a hungry one! From cooking and homework to games and social gatherings, the kitchen provides a relaxing spot for meals, conversations and memories.
A trend in interior design is the dramatic kitchen island. This eye-catching feature gives your kitchen distinctive personality and provides a multi-purpose worktop. Here are three renovation-ready surfacing design ideas from Formica Group, Wilsonart® and FENIX® Innovative Materials to inspire your project.
5010 Drama Marble – Wilsonart®
Luxurious granite, marble and quartzite looks add major drama to any kitchen island. Whether you select a light-colored laminate with warm veining or a darker stone look with striking details, your new island is sure to be a conversation starter. Bonus: Laminate is durable and easy to clean without the sealants required for natural stone. Explore our range of stone patterns.
Opt for the Warm Elegance of Woodgrains
Island in 9479FX Wide Planked Walnut, countertops in 6696 Carrara Bianco – Formica Group
Wood tones add warmth and a natural design element to home spaces. A woodgrain laminate countertop on a kitchen island pairs beautifully with classic stone-look laminates on other surfaces for an interesting, multi-faceted visual.
Go for a Bold Super Matte Color
FENIX® J0750 Verde Comodoro
FENIX® Innovative Materials make a beautiful statement in modern kitchens with low light reflectivity and a soft-to-the touch feel. The anti-fingerprint, color-rich solids in this collection add contemporary sophistication to kitchen countertops and custom cabinet fronts. You can also mix and match your color selections for a one-two design punch. In addition, FENIX® surfacing is available in two thicknesses, a classic 1 1/8” profile as well as a ½” ultra-modern profile for a sleeker look.
