# Kitchen Islands & Bar Tops

The centerpiece pieces — big slabs, waterfall edges, and tops for every room that needs one.

An acacia island with waterfall ends and a slat wall — from the journal: [Johnson NC, Waterfall Feature](https://timbercouture.com/blog/biggest-yet).

## Islands

Island slabs start at 4′ × 8′ and 30″-deep stock, and go fully custom from there — up to 100″ × 144″ as one piece. When a client wanted a 4′ × 10′ island nobody else stocked, the shop built exactly that (see [Custom Grand Island](https://timbercouture.com/blog/custom-grand-island) in the journal, along with the matching shelves, laundry and pantry tops that followed).

The signature look is espresso-stained acacia with a matte or satin extra-durable finish, but every species and finish on the [supply page](https://timbercouture.com/services/butcher-block-supply) applies here too.

## Waterfall edges

A waterfall carries the wood over the edge and straight down to the floor. It’s a different installation process that takes noticeably more material — but done right it needs no extra support, and it turns an island into furniture. Recent examples in the journal: a [double waterfall in Asheville](https://timbercouture.com/blog/double-waterfall-in-asheville) built from the ground up, and a [laundry-room waterfall](https://timbercouture.com/blog/laundry-waterfall) with a plumbing access cutout. And if a waterfall isn’t actually right for your layout, Tim will say so before you pay for one.

## Bar tops and beyond

The same solid stock becomes bar tops, peninsulas, work benches, desk tops, table tops, floating shelves, mantels, vanities, and laundry, pantry or garage counters. If it’s a flat surface that should be real wood, it’s probably been made here — the [gallery](https://timbercouture.com/gallery) has the photos.
