- Know your style. Choosing the right type of wood starts with knowing what style you’re working with. A modern home may need polished wood while a home with a rustic vibe could easily incorporate more natural and unfinished looking wood.
- Focus on the island. The island is truly the center of your kitchen in most cases, so it’s naturally where the eye is going to go, especially if you make it really stand out. Use wood accents or a butcher block top.
- Don’t be afraid to play with color. If natural wood isn’t right for you, painted or textured wood could be perfect. You can still allow the natural grain to shine through.
