Big ones, little ones, long ones, curved ones, tiled ones, ones that are fluted, metallic or freestanding. The way you can design your kitchen island is limitless right now.
Which is why, the Kitchens Bedroom & Bathrooms magazine team – the UK’s only dedicated kitchen magazine left on the shelves, FYI – has put together a Readly exclusive dedicated to islands, packed with design advice and inspiration.
(If you didn’t know, Readly is a digital subscription service that offers access to thousands of magazines and newspapers in one app.)
An island is the most requested item in kitchen design at the moment, according to our industry friends. And we can see why – the possibilities with this ‘it’ piece of furniture are endless. By mixing up materials, levels or storage, you can create one that is just as unique as you are.
But if that sounds a little overwhelming, this Readly exclusive will be sure to help!
What you can expect inside…
For our Autumn 2025 issue, you can discover nearly 100 pages of inspiration and advice, from picking the right kitchen island style, choosing seating (I’m team no bar stools!) to deciding whether to add a sink, a hob, or both (or neither).
You’ll also find plenty of inspiration from our homes section, with beautiful kitchens that showcase different styles, sizes and functionality.
(P.S if you don’t have a Readly subscription, they’re currently offering a one month free trial!)
Happy reading,
