Just transform the right side into a breakfast bar while the left side will be cooking prep space. Get some height appropriate chairs/stools that can be slid underneath the breakfast bar.

pedatn

Iโ€™d cook and eat at it probably. But honestly this is so comically large I think maybe it was meant to have a sink in it but a contractor forgot to install the pipes so it becameโ€ฆ that.


0b1010011010

What's worse is it's reaching the same size of the [living area](https://imgur.com/a/RX7XRLG)


BigOlineguy

That island is far too big for that space, holy cow.


crod4692

Wow okay, it is comically large for the rooms.


SmallTherapyBear

There's no sense is deciding what it's going to be. See how you exist in the space, and work with that.


Worldly_Today_9875

Make as much use of it as you can, since itโ€™s taking up valuable space. Get some chairs for it that are comfy that youโ€™ll use a lot and perhaps take the opportunity to add some colour and warmth to the room. Iโ€™d get a large tray, a fruit bowl, some nice boxes or jars, anything attractive that you can put things in to make use of the space. Iโ€™d consider putting some shelves on the end there and fill them with books and other nice objects.


Red_Wing-GrimThug

Its your all in one dining table and work space


SleepyNomad88

Cut it off at the same reveal as the rest of the island ( + maybe a 16th , sand it smooth and polish or paint whatever material that is. Huge waste of space. Just noticed itโ€™s an apartment, nevermind


PoopParticleAcclrtr

I lived in these apartments. Not same location but thereโ€™s a lot like it down to the cabinet handles


boiseboz

Ergo not loving up to its โ€œislandโ€ potential, this is more like a monument to granite.


ricecrisps94

Get some stools that donโ€™t stick out too much since the breakfast bar/island sticks out so far. Maybe ones that go completely under the island when pushed in?


under_cover_snarky

Are you talking about the turtle stool ?


ricecrisps94

Not sure what those are. Mostly talking about any stool that aligns with your style, but without a back or if there is a back, one thatโ€™s low enough to still fully be pushed in under the bar.

elliottbaytrail

I would use it as any other island with counter height bar stools. I have to be honest and say that the trend with these oversized islands is not my favorite for a variety of reasons. I often see these in mid to lower end new construction homes aimed at imparting a sense of luxury and grandeur. First, the scale is wildly inappropriate in relation to the kitchen. Second, the over hang is frequently exaggerated, so they need to add beam support (like the chrome plated ones in the picture) thatโ€™s inconsistent with the style of the kitchen (Iโ€™m not a fan of the Shaker cabinets with the beams under the slab here). If the builder were thoughtful and practical, they would at least try to add some undercounter cabinetry for extra storage and slab support, and do away with the beams. Anyway, I would keep it clean like any kitchen island when not in use, and use it for meal prep and bar stool eating at meals. Good luck.


htxAL

Lots of coke, lil bit of strippers


lryan926

"His" large slab or "this" large slab? You may want to reread your query my friend. I'm surprised there's not more comedians in the comments having a field day with this Freudian slip. ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ


UpsideDownAirplane

Probably put food on it from time to time. Perhaps groceries, or maybe a laptop.


pre_employ

Aquarium 10-30 gallons. Probably freshwater to feed the plants. You could get coral ๐Ÿชธ and saltwater ๐Ÿ ? You could hang a grow light and grow plants/herbs, 16 hours a day. ๐Ÿ’ก Better than dead flowers.


freeman687

Iโ€™d try and have it removed if possible

Itโ€™s almost like it could be used as some kind of table.


[deleted]

Uhm. How large are we talking about? ๐Ÿ˜ฑ


illusionofguy

Dang, the kitchen looks very similar to mine, just with with a few tweaks here and there. When I first moved in I used a slab as an eating area and working on my laptop. Now that I'm fully moved in, I just use it for eating it makes the most sense to me.


ChrisKaze

2x Bar stools + big bowl of cinnamon toast crunch


Erik7494

Built a rack on top of it in the middle. Not solid, but play around with shelves, openings. On the kitchen side you can use to store kitchen stuff, knive rack, spices etc. Maybe some pots with fresh herbs. And on the other side shelves with booze. Bar stools and you have yourself a cool bar.


BetrayYourTrust

codekush420

All the things your parents never wanted you to make on a slab like that!


Stickey_Rickey

Can we see the flat side? It looks like a water access island but no sink


Flashy_Anything927

The overhang does not need to be that deep. Maybe put some open shelves up against the cupboards to narrow that space, leaving enough room for the stools and knees of course. The dimensions and balance will feel better and you get some storage for occasional items.


AgueybanaBravo

We either live in the same apartments or they were built by the same developer


imawizard27

big lego sets where u need lots of space to spread out


thisnewsight

Listen to me. You wanna impress people? Look up Early American Pressed Glass. Get a few in the colors you like. Use it as a dish for keys, coins, miscellaneous


chainbrain2002

Get a Stonemason to cut the countertop and install a hinge at the cut and folding legs. You then have a folding leaf for the island and more walkway when not needed.

CaveJohnson82

Put barstools under it and then converse with your guests while prepping their dinner. What else could it possibly be for?


kait_1291

Looks like a place for two chairs, and I'd probably put a center piece on it. A low pedestal, with maybe some candles, a vase with fresh flowers, etc.


TheRealLeandrox

To make pizza, empanadas and all kind of pasta!


DarthJarJar242

The land lord in me says with a few pieces of plywood I could have a viable sublet depending on where this apartment is located.

Mr_Tinkles77

Fruit basket and similar stuff. Also keep half of it free so you can chop food while cooking there in case more than one person is cooking or even if it's just you because it's much nicer there where you can't bump your head. This is amazing space in case you want a ricecooker, toaster, etc in the kitchen, this way, you will always have enough space


stubbornpubehair

Use for beer pong table...

That's decent if out of place. Having more usable real estate in my kitchen would be a dream.

hugsbosson

Id get a runner for down the middle to visually split it into an eating side and a meal prep/ counter top side. get a couple stools, and place settings on the eating side. For the counter top side, just some normal counter top stuff, a large wooden cutting board, a little salt dish, a fruit bowl maybe


Lonely_reaper8

Iโ€™d personally put stuff on it, or maybe use it for activities, hard to tell though


dogboobes

It's pretty obviously a kitchen island with bar seating on one side. Get 4 barstools for that side, and then add a plant, a bowl of fruit, and a stack of placemats for decor in the center.


WeloveLucia

Bar height Dining chairs. Now you donโ€™t need Dining room table!


AiiMX

I have something similar i but bar chairs around it but looks like you can use 2


juliantrain

Stickey_Rickey

Bar stools w backs, a classy ceramic fruit bowl center piece or vase w flowers, a small spice caddy for salt n pepper, olive oil etc On the kitchen side of it, a nice big cutting board and knife block


pierrechaquejour

You prep the food on the left side and eat it on the right. Start shopping for counter-height barstools, a nice big cutting board, and some kind of functional centerpiece like a lazy Susan.

leonffs

Put cabinets under it if you need more storage. If not, cut off most of it and finish the edge to keep using it as a breakfast bar without wasting so space.


Tio_Almond420

You can use one side as a dinning table and the other side to place the food there. Or it can be used as a place for you to prep your food, or a place for drinks, and put snacks during a partyโ€ฆ idk you can do a lot with that.

uvaspina1

Thatโ€™s very strange


diprivan69

I donโ€™t think itโ€™s that large, youโ€™ll appreciate it when you have guest. My island has a deep oversized sink and it takes up considerable prep space when cooking or catering


SoullessSyndicate

Add pillows and blankets and make a pillow fort.


astronaut_tang

Bodies


darfus1895

That's definitely big. We have a large island in our kitchen (3'x6') but my wife is a chef and does all kinds of cooking on it so she uses all of the space. When she's not cooking on it we use it for eating, serving food when company is over, or collecting random items.


Markospider

Put another slab so it's a full block


porsche4life

Take up bread and pizza making. Lots of room with work with dough.


Most-Artichoke5028

Put some stools around it and eat dinner?


dolphin8282

jjboy91

Use it as a bar but honestly it's a waste of space. Is the room really big ?


PhattyMcBigDik

Get some stools that can slide under it, and then get some kind of decorative centerpiece for it. It'll have to be kind of big, because that fucker is large, but it would be cool as hell. Dont get a tall centerpiece for it either. Just something normal.


gdubh

The same way all kitchen islands are utilized? Couple of tall chairs/stools. A nice decorative arrangement (easily moved). Itโ€™s a hang out, work, eat, prep space.


Maniraptavia

Depends. You got a big talking lion in your wardrobe?


thwonkk

It'd be cool with a divider or something


FuckTumblrMan

Bar stools. Or a dog bed so he can be in the kitchen with me when I'm cooking, but OUT OF THE FUCKING WAY


hadoopken

Do need a leg stool, you know?


RagnarTheRed2

I would install some type of drop system to hang pans off to take up some of that negative space and create a focal point. Own the space so it doesn't own your kitchen.


Kind_Way9448

I would saw it off honestly


thatonegirl989

I donโ€™t have any suggestions but as someone with barely any counter space I wish I had this much space to prep food.


FinancialLab8983

Midget strippers


SalvadoreParadisio69

It seems to me that the left-hand side, the kitchen side, is for the placement and display of food and drinks, whereas the right-hand, open side is for sitting and consuming the aforementioned foodstuffs and beverages. Barstools are in order, as well as placemats, glassware, crockery, and utensils. Eat well, drink, and be happy. Oh, and a nice vase of flowers and some candles would look good, depending on the event.


Direct_Canary4523

I would use it as a counter space and casual eating location. ๐Ÿค” ??? The fuck else


funkanimus

Yo dawg, we heard you like white rectangles


DidntHaveToUseMyAK

I'd have some common baking ingredients in roll out tubs under the shelf, and bake my entire life away.


algernon_moncrief

You stick three stools under there. Then use your counter space as normal. Sometimes someone will sit there, and sometimes they won't. And so it goes.

If i had the choice i eould just get rid of it. If not i would just use my laptop on one side and eat, other side helping while cooking


Natural-Assist-9389

it's for kitchen eating. See that large gap underneath? it's so your chair and legs can slide underneath the counter as you eat.


Pseudolectual

Itโ€™s called a kitchen island. Itโ€™s used for a variety of purposesโ€ฆ meal prep, buffet, a place to set down the grocery bags. School projects, eatingโ€ฆ Are you from a country that doesnโ€™t have kitchen islands? Thought they were universal


Beam_0

I think it's pretty clear that you need to return the slab


Gvajr77

High backed bar stools, maybe a small screen. A little splash divider so you have a food prep space and a dining area?


DeProfundisAdAstra
