The kitchen island is an incredible piece of furniture, one which can be potentially be customized in an infinite number of ways. Kitchen islands with seating are particularly wonderful because they make great transitional pieces and they add a very warm and inviting touch to the space around them. As already mentioned, customization is key and there’s a lot of cool ways to do it. Check out some of our favorite designs below.

Your eyes are not deceiving you…this island really is floating. It’s something that studio Diego Revollo Arquitetura designed for an apartment located in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The island is 14 feet (4.5 meters) long and is suspended by black metal supports at each end. This unusual design solution allowed the entire kitchen floor to remain visible which makes cleaning easier and provides more flexibility overall as chairs can easily slide in and out on all sides.

The stools can fit underneath the island to save space, allowing the island to be used as a prep space.
