For a sleek and minimalist kitchen, consider adding an island with a soapstone and butcher block combo countertop. The soapstone's clean and smooth surface adds a touch of elegance, while the butcher block brings in a natural and organic element. This combination works well with white or neutral-colored cabinets, minimalist hardware, and a minimalist backsplash. Keep the island clutter-free and add a few statement pieces for a minimalist yet stylish look.
