A Designer’s Guide to Countertops



Selecting the right countertop can elevate the look and functionality of your kitchen and bathroom. In fact, even less obvious locations can make use of quality countertops, like pantries, bars, or custom built-ins. There are lots of options involved in choosing counters and we’re here to help! Knowing what design you’d like to achieve and considering the other elements like cabinetry and hardware will greatly help you in your decision-making process. One major decision will be choosing between natural and engineered countertops. While natural materials like marble offer timeless beauty, they require more care and maintenance. Engineered options like quartz offer durability, a wider range of colors, and often require less upkeep. Of course, your choice goes beyond the material itself. For example, picking from busy, minimal, and no veining options will impact the overall look and feel of your space. Consider how edge profiles, finishes, and color will help to achieve the desired aesthetic. Keep in mind that not all materials can accommodate every edge profile or finish. When choosing a specific material, your countertop provider can explain available edge and finish options for that particular material, ensuring that your vision becomes a reality.
