Island

7 years ago

What wood species is the butcher block island? I also like the detail of the black bracing on the overhang which ties the look together. Any info on how to achieve this look would be appreciated.

Hi There! The counters are reclaimed oak. The brackets underneath are L Shaped wall brackets in a black metal finish. This idea for this house was modern farmhouse style which meant a lot of white, natural wood, and clean lined wrought iron. If you want to achieve this look start with a white base for your space and add in wood textures where you can. If you can't replace a whole counter try incorporating pieces like wooden bowls on the counters or wood topped jars. If the wrought iron pieces are above the budget (because they can get expensive) try swapping them out for a black aluminum. Hope this helps!

We are planning a new house, and have chosen a soft grey melamine kitchen with perfectly plain cupboards, and darkish handles with coppery hightlights. The bench-top is a new ceramic tile type of material in a slightly darker grey/concrete color, with coppery highlights through it - very nice. We have discussed having the center island a darker color as this is very visible from the dining room, and thought it would be a nice feature. There will be a copper colored Formica under the servery for a highlight, and the cupboards facing the dining room on each end of the unit will be the darker wood or melamine. The only thing we have been offered to use for the cupboards and each end on the unit is charcoal wood grain finish melamine, but now we are getting cold feet. Has anyone seen this used, and would it look a bit cheap...? Would it cost much more to use a proper wood...? raewyng
