This standout kitchen is defined by its striking island—clad in Mountain Peak, a large-format porcelain that delivers both durability and drama. The surface features richly detailed veining and earthy tones that echo the look of natural stone, offering a refined and robust solution for modern living.
The Mountain Peak panels have been carefully installed with visible edge detailing, embracing the material’s structure rather than concealing it. This design choice adds definition and depth, allowing each panel’s natural variation to shine while highlighting the craftsmanship behind the build.
A cool grey-brown palette with layered veining provides a bold contrast to the warm timber cabinetry, anchoring the open-plan space and creating a strong visual focus. Practical features—such as power outlets at each end and a generous overhang for bar seating—support everyday functionality without compromising on style.
This kitchen island is a clear example of how Mountain Peak porcelain can elevate a space, combining practical performance with sculptural impact.
