I think you really could go either way... But plank is really classic.

too tiny kitchen for island. need to have accurate floor plan and water source for sink design along. foldable table might work better with counter wall in cabinets. island counter with ceiling hang chimneys if cook top here may save space OR simple counter table with utility below and just one wall touch kitchen platform so have a corner for other cabinet or fridge.

Hello Amruti, Posting images of a project done by me which has a breakfast counter & opens onto the dining, its to give you an idea on a concept of open kitchen. The design style can be changed to ur aesthetic sense.. Thank you.

Pencil interiors, 12x14 is by no means a snall kitchen space. An island of decent size can be accommodated unless floor plan has some typical challenges . Thanks, Nitin Cornerstone Designs, Bangalore
