Bespoke Solid Oak sharing Island - custom made for a 'foodie family' in Bergvliet, Cape Town

Sometimes it isn't easy to see the interior design potential that a house can have - but with a magnificent solid Oak kitchen island like this one, it's hard not to be inspired. Take a look at what the kitchen looked like when they first moved in...

The brief was to design a kitchen island for a bistro style space that could be used for food shoots and food blogging. We wanted to create a modern and stylish solution for the whole family - one where everyone would want to be. The island was hand made by a carefully selected carpenter who bleached the oak first. This was the final result.

If you look more closely, you'll notice that this specific client asked for an inset Butcher's block. The chopping board was designed with up-stand end blocks of oak for heavy duty chopping, this means that it can slide out for sanding and cleaning without compromising the rest of the island.

Lighting was carefully considered for the open plan space, including under the island at floor level - it creates a wonderful warm glow in the evenings. The client also asked us to make them matching butt style barstools.
