Most Singapore homes were not designed with a kitchen island in mind. The kitchen is enclosed and the dining table is fixed. There is no natural place for a prep surface, extra storage, or a spot to gather while food is being made. A proper built-in island feels out of reach.
The Grace Kitchen Island changes that. At only 0.35 square metres, it fits into homes where a traditional island never could. It has fluted glass sliding doors and open shelving for display. Three side drawers keep smaller items organised. The storage is accessible from both sides. It sits beside your dining table, at the edge of your kitchen, or wherever your layout needs it most.
Where to Place an Island?
Put it on the balcony and it becomes a reading corner. A spot for your books, your morning coffee, and a small plant. Everything within reach without going back inside.
Put it beside the dining table and it becomes a kitchen island. The countertop holds your coffee machine, your toast, and your morning spread. The storage below keeps everything else out of sight.
Use it as a room partition and it becomes a mini bar. It creates a natural divider that stores your glasses between the living and dining area.
Put it in a corner of the living room and it becomes a display shelf and storage piece in one. The open shelf shows what you want to see. The cabinet and drawers keep everything else organised behind closed doors.
The 0.35 square metres footprint never changes. With multiple possibilities, what it does in that space depends on where you choose to put it.

Tips for Getting the Most Out of Your Grace
- Place it beside the dining table to use the countertop as a food prep or serving extension during meals.
- Use the open shelf for daily items so you can grab them without opening any doors.
- Arrange the partitions around your tallest items first so nothing gets crammed in.
- Use the side drawers for small items like cutlery and chargers to stay organised.
- Slide the glass doors closed when guests are over for a neater, more put-together look.

Conclusion
Not every Singapore home has room for a built-in kitchen island. But most have a corner or a gap that is doing nothing. With the right piece in it, it becomes a kitchen island, a prep surface, or a storage piece that earns its place every day. The Grace Kitchen Island turns that corner into something worth having.
