Some call it an island, some are wrong to call it a bar table.

The kitchen furniture we will discuss this time is the peninsula.

The kitchen peninsula and island are both the addition of a countertop in the kitchen.

The difference is, to place an island we need a large area because it stands alone.

Not so with the peninsula.

This extra countertop is made together with a kitchen set, so it doesn’t need a large area.

In the “L-shaped kitchen“, for example, a table can be added at the end, so that the shape becomes like a “U-shaped” design.

This design often makes people think of the peninsula as a bar table.

Just like the island, bar tables are usually made stand alone, not integrated with a kitchen set.

In addition, a high-sized bar table, that’s why the chair used must be high too, the bar stool name. While the peninsula, made about the size of an ordinary table so that it can be used as a regular table.

So, what are the functions of this peninsula? The island function and bar table are on the table.

You can use it as an additional work area, just a sitting area, breakfast bar, or a combination of all the functions.

Or add a few drawers and shelves at the bottom of the peninsula, be an extra storage container.

One more advantage possessed by the peninsula, it can also function as a barrier, between the kitchen and other adjacent rooms.

That is why the peninsula is perfectly applied to the open concept kitchen.

You plan to want to place an extra table in the kitchen, but are you worried about insufficient land? The peninsula kitchen can be the answer.

The design of the peninsula kitchen is more flexible and is perfect for small kitchen spaces compared to island kitchen designs.

Peninsula in the kitchen can also be used for diverse needs, preparing dishes, or limited to an additional dining table.

The design of the peninsula kitchen can have a very trendy look.

Small Kitchen with Peninsula

A small kitchen designed like modern minimalist kitchens with a very impressive interior visualization.

The kitchen peninsula is different from the island kitchen.

The kitchen peninsula is usually integrated with a kitchen set so that it does not need its own area in the installation.

While the island needs its own area, which causes the design of the island kitchen more suitable for large areas or spaces.

Kitchen Island Peninsula

Peninsula or attached wall island are both additional top counters in the kitchen room.

What distinguishes the two is only in terms of installation and how much it takes up a lot of space.

We can use it as an additional work area, just a sitting area, breakfast bar, or a combination of all these functions.

If you wish, add a few drawers and shelves at the bottom of the peninsula or island breakfast bar, so an extra storage rack is born.

Peninsula as a space partition, between the kitchen and other rooms, is perfect for small kitchens, then the small kitchen appearance will be attractive and very functional.
