A great way to add extra work top and storage space in to your kitchen is to look at integral kitchen islands. There are many that you can buy that don’t require fitting and can be moved out of the way if you need the floor space for entertaining. A top interior tip if you are looking for a central integral kitchen island is to allow a 1.2 metre space around the island to be able to open drawers and cupboards and not feel too restricted.
