Kitchen island cabinets provide an opportunity to make a design statement on a smaller scale. It's easy to turn an island into the showpiece of your kitchen, whether you want to match it with the rest of your cabinetry, use a new door style, embellish it with special details, or use contrasting colors — such as wall cabinets in a wood stain against an island with a pop of color — to make your island stand boldly on its own.
