If you know anything about home remodeling (or fashion, for that matter), you know that trends come and go. What was popular yesterday might not be popular today or tomorrow. This principle holds true for custom countertops in Mississippi. Since you may not up to date on the latest countertop trends, we figured we’d catch you up. Here are some of the latest trends we’ve seen in 2018 when it comes to countertops.
Textured finishes
Textured finishes are becoming increasingly popular in all sorts of remodeling projects. Why not keep that trend going in the kitchen? More and more homeowners are choosing a textured finish for their counters instead of a polished finish for a variety of reasons. In addition to obscuring scratch marks, fingerprints and water spots better than polished surfaces, textured finishes tend to bring out the true beauty of the stone. Stop by our showroom today to check out a textured slab of rock and see for yourself what we mean!
Quartz
Quartz counters have become increasingly popular over the past few years as a great alternative to granite. Quartz looks just as good as granite, comes in a variety of colors and is incredibly durable. Want to know another big advantage of quartz? It’s not porous like granite. That means spills won’t seep into the rock, which can cause permanent stains. More importantly, bacteria don’t have a place to hide in an impermeable countertop material like quartz. For those reasons, you’ll likely continue to see quartz countertop installation in 2018 and beyond.
Neutral tones
Bright, eye-catching colors are rapidly falling out of favor when it comes to custom countertops in Mississippi. Instead of installing vibrant counters like we did a few decades ago, homeowners are choosing more laidback tones for their countertops. Soft gray, white and beige counters are all the rage right now. That doesn’t mean kitchens are getting boring, though. Quite the opposite, actually—homeowners are experimenting with fun backsplash tiles and giving their kitchen an open feel by installing huge windows that let in tons of natural light. At Kitchen Kreators Ltd., we do much more than just install counters—we can help you create the kitchen of your dreams!
Integrated kitchen sinks
Countertops don’t just need to look great—they need to be functional as well. What’s one of the best ways to do that? How about by integrating your kitchen sink right into your counter! Integrated kitchen sinks are flush with the countertop, so wiping off liquid and food particles into the sink is a breeze. When it comes to style, your options are almost endless. Choose a stainless steel sink to complement your countertop, or install a sink made of quartz that seamlessly blends into your counters.
