Here's some pictures of an install that's been dragging on for some time...the end is near, hopefully.

Jon  I have to say that kitchen is going to look awesome when it all done, can't wait to see it with all the appliances added. just slight confusion as to the wood tone center island when all else is white

Yep,it's a pretty big thing down here!  White or ivory cabinets on perimeter and a dark wood tone island,i install a lot of that!
 
Sal, it seems like every kitchen I put in nowadays has a contrasting island.  Just something the designer does.  I have a feeling it would be too much white going on if the island was white as well.  I'm pretty sure the island top is different too, it's a "fired" cambria.  Gives the stone texture.

Jon.  It's a great idea as to the color contrast, just was unexpected to see. Please photo,the final install

Sal, will do!  Wish I had some photography skills to do it justice.  I have an entire portfolio of crap photos!

Perhaps the different island is a continuation of the "furniture" idea.  perhaps that all originated with the original idea of a butcher's block.

Just a thought.

Couple more.  Countertop on the island is really cool.  It's "fired" black cambria, and the texture is great.

Did the cabinet install and the massive crown!  The builder actually paid extra for me to install the crown around the room that ties into the kitchen after seeing some crown work in another house he built.  All crown was prefinished, and took out a loaner kapex to really give it a workout on that large mdf crown.  But the darn blade was dull and NO ONE in town stocked a kapex blade!  Had to build up some 2 x 6"s on my dewalt (non-slider) so I could cut through it on the flat...fun!

Really a beautiful house.
