One of the most clever design solutions for small spaces is the versatile and moveable kitchen island. Taking up no more space than a few feet, a slender kitchen island<\/a> adds a work surface and storage without permanent cabinet installation.<\/p>\n

\"A
This kitchen island with wheels adds a much-needed surface area, drawers and open shelving to your kitchen.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

In a kitchen that’s not large enough to house an island of deep proportions, the moveable slender kitchen island is the perfect prep surface, providing a place to slice, dice, set and serve.<\/p>\n

A portable kitchen island can do double duty as a dining buffet or beverage cart. Tucked up against a wall, the slender piece of furniture is a handy spot to lay out appetizers and drinks or store cookbooks.<\/p>\n

Expand the storage of any pantry by tucking a small scale moveable island inside, one that can be brought out when hosting parties or for holiday baking sessions.<\/p>\n

While intended for use in a kitchen, moveable islands and carts are in no way limited to that space. There’s no rule that says kitchen islands have to be used solely for food purposes. Reinvent it as a home office and make one the perfect place to sit down on a stool with a laptop to catch up on emails or surf around online.<\/p>\n

Lamps Plus has a variety of movable islands and carts<\/a> in varied styles and finishes.<\/p>\n

Don’t miss the Shop By Room<\/a> galleries at Lamps Plus with even more inspiring kitchen ideas<\/a> including lighting, layout, and finish inspiration from traditional to contemporary.<\/p>\n
