Adding an eating area to your kitchen island is a popular option, if you have the space. A raised counter, creating a two tiered island adds useful space to the kitchen while separating the eating surface from the food preparation surface of the island. This type of arrangement is great for families as the children can do homework on the raised surface, while other family members can be preparing a meal. The family can spend time together, yet keep their things separate from each other. The eating area added to an island can add useful space to the kitchen or help to define the kitchen space from other areas of the house.
The use of shelves in the base cabinets is a poor ergonomics: it makes it very difficult to find articles since it is impossible to get an overview of all the contents of the cabinet. It is quite common for a kitchen user to bend and stretch when looking for something. Also, they often have to remove the contents of the front to access the elements of the back.
