In a coastal-inspired kitchen, adding an island with a zinc and wood combo countertop creates a relaxed and beachy vibe. The zinc surface adds a touch of sophistication, while the wood brings warmth and natural beauty to the space. This combination evokes the feeling of a coastal retreat, making the kitchen a serene and inviting place to gather. The island offers additional storage and seating, making it a functional and stylish addition to any coastal home.
