Workstation
Integrated into the island is a robust chopping block, made from maple and walnut in a checkerboard pattern and finished in oil. The front is curved so that it reflects a bow-fronted cupboard opposite. At one end of the room, a storage unit features black glass panels to minimise the impact of a TV screen.

Breakfast bar
The gently textured zebrano breakfast bar contains equipment that controls the sound system, electronic blinds and lighting. Sleek stainless-steel bar stools add a touch of designer chic to the scheme, while brushed nickel bar handles and stainless-steel hinges break up the wood.

Wine storage
The wine cooler sits at an angle to fit neatly into a corner of the room beside the door. The smart styling of the cabinet helps to merge the chiller into the scheme.

Raised dishwasher
The dishwasher is positioned higher than usual, to minimise bending to load and upload it. The height difference also interrupts a long expanse of granite, so the effect isn't flat or clinical.
