Installing a kitchen island is a more cost-effective way of creating space in food preparation areas when compared to a complete renovation, it has been claimed. According to Linda Brigida, writing for the Kingston Reporter, kitchens are getting bigger in modern houses, but storage space has not kept up. She remarked If your kitchen has enough space in it to add an island, then do it. This is a great way to gain more space for a fraction of the cost.A kitchen island allows homeowners to place all of their appliances they are unable to house elsewhere in one convenient place, Ms Brigida added. People that have smaller food preparation areas were advised to consider purchasing a rolling cart, which serves a similar function, but takes up less room. A new Franke kitchen sink overflow is designed to increase space in cabinets and raise hygiene levels, according to its manufacturer.
