As a retired (by heart attack, not by choice) cook, I love the island.. it's Loud!
Fantastic use of greenery.. especially the jade.. you'll never have to buy another..

More people should incorporate plants into apartment design!

Years ago, I had a fairly large Side yard, which was just grass. It burned in certain areas under the full sun, and I removed all the sod from an area of perhaps 30'x30' and planted tomatoes and peppers- the only one in the neighborhood to do this. I Did hear from the surrounding neighbors that 'This isn't normal'.. (But neither could I be called Normal!)
A year later, I did much the same, and bought pumpkin seeds, inviting the same neighbors to bring their kids over to plant their own seeds. My garden area soon became everyone's garden.. the kids coming over to water 'their' pumpkins, while their parents enjoyed the (free babysitting) and the occasional "I'm bringing this home to Mom/Dad" pepper or tomato or cuke..

Love that dresser!
