This is a close-up of the kitchen island at the Franklin kitchen addition, already being used as you can see. You can see the breakfast-bar on the backside of the island. The kitchen island as well as the rest of the cabinetry features dark granite countertop surfaces. The sink as well as the dishwasher are also located within the island.

As I mentioned in the previous article, this island is highly customized. The customer had chosen maple cabinetry and we used maple plywood to enclose the back and sides of this island. You remember that 2″x6″ frame sitting in the middle of the room in part 1 of this series? That is what we used to create the breakfast bar and run our rough electric and plumbing through.
