The island as a workspace

Gray and white for a revamped classic style

In this kitchen, the interior designer wanted to maximize the light coming through the skylight and the huge windows. All that natural light falls on a central island of ove 5 square metrs, which is the centr of operations and focal point of the kitchen.

The impressive countertop in Silestone® Blanco Zeus makes white the dominant color on the island. Furthermore, the brickwork and cabinets in pickled wood are also white. In contrast to the light, the secondary areas are in gray tones, while the countertop of the cooking area and the second sink are clad in Silestone® Charcoal Soapstone, a color featuring a black background with veins.

Brilliant white

The work area is distinctly defined by the large countertop featuring a 12 cm strip. The use of Silestone® Blanco Zeus in a glossy finish further enhances the reflection of light.

Auxiliary countertops

In contrast to the white that dominates the focal point of the kitchen, the interior designer opted for a very dark matte color with greyish veins from the Eternal Collection for the auxiliary countertops: Silestone® Charcoal Soapstone. Inspired by soapstone, this material creates an incredible effect thanks to its depth and fluidity.
