What’s new in stone countertop design and style?

Stone countertops have been a popular choice for kitchens and bathrooms for decades and for good reason. They’re durable, heat-resistant, and come in a wide range of materials and styles to fit any design aesthetic. But like any home design element, stone countertops have evolved over time to reflect the latest trends and styles. Let’s explore some of the latest trends so that you can stay up-to-date with the latest looks.

Bold and Unique Patterns

In the past, stone countertops were often chosen for their classic, understated look. But today, homeowners are embracing bold, unique patterns and textures. From veined marble to speckled granite, there’s no shortage of options for homeowners who want to make a statement with their countertops. Some of the most popular patterns right now include watercolor-inspired designs, bold geometric shapes, and unique swirls and veining.

Matte Finishes

While high-shine finishes have long been popular for stone countertops, matte finishes are quickly becoming a new trend. Matte finishes give countertops a more natural, organic look, and can be a great way to tone down a bold pattern or color. Matte finishes can also be easier to maintain than high-shine finishes, since they’re less likely to show fingerprints or smudges.

Textured Finishes

In addition to matte finishes, textured finishes are also becoming more popular. Textured finishes can add depth and dimension to a countertop, and can be a great way to create a unique look. Some popular textured finishes include leathered, brushed, or honed finishes, which can give a countertop a tactile, almost velvety feel.

Statement Islands

Kitchen islands have become a must-have feature for many homeowners, and stone countertops can be a great way to make a statement with your island. Instead of using the same stone throughout the kitchen, consider using a bold, unique stone for the island to create a focal point in the space. You could also experiment with different colors or patterns on the island versus the perimeter countertops to create contrast and visual interest.

Thin Countertops

While thick, chunky countertops have been popular in recent years, thin countertops are becoming a new trend. Thin countertops can create a sleek, modern look in the kitchen, and can be a great way to show off a bold pattern or texture without overwhelming the space. Thin countertops can also be more budget-friendly than thick countertops since they require less material to create.

If you’re considering stone countertops for your kitchen or bathroom remodel, these latest trends can give you some inspiration for your project. From bold patterns and unique textures to matte finishes and statement islands, there’s no shortage of ways to make your countertops stand out. Consult with on of our experts to help you choose the right stone and design for your space.
