I love our island bench in the mornings - I have 4 kids, 3 of which are teenagers, and the morning rush to get out to school is chaotic. The kids all come through to the kitchen at different times for their breakfast, which I have set up on the bench, and they can just grab what they want, sit on a barstool and gobble it quick. Then it's just the kitchen bench that needs a good clean after breakfast. don't have to worry with the dining table. Evening meals are a different story though, I believe families should sit down together at the dining room table.

The all black kitchen looks scary as. Maybe because there's no lightness in there at all.

we need to use two vertical beams on either side of our kitchen island. so could make this a feature alternatively could not have them attached to our island. any ideas or images would be appreciated
