How to choose a kitchen countertop

Your home defines you in terms of taste, decorations, colors or level of hospitality. Moreover, your house addresses you every moment you are home. Every decoration you choose carefully, the furniture, the materials used are all responsible for your relaxation, identifying you with the space.

Kitchen – the heart of your home

Kitchen is an essential room, because it is more than a space reserved for food or nutrition. Kitchen is also a place to share with the loved ones – hence its name, "the heart of the house".

There is a central element in our kitchens: kitchen countertop, able to transform the entire look of your room, with a modern or traditional touch and complementing the furniture design. A natural stone kitchen countertop will instantly turn into a point of attraction – impossible to miss! But how to decide on the most suitable material for your kitchen?

The stone might be cold – but the colors heat it up

It is true, the stone can convey a slightly masculine look to your room, only if you choose a shade incompatible with the rest of your furniture. Lately, there is a modern trend in design, focusing on straight lines, mostly neutral colors and decoration project in black or white.

The color variation of natural stone manages to express an amazing result of warmth and comfort – and the good news is that natural stone is available in an almost infinite color range.

Stone Kitchen Furniture

A complete novelty in interior design is kitchen furniture cladding with natural stone and for this the most recommended material is Nero Marquina marble. This type of kitchen furniture is fully functional and can be adapted or replicated regardless of your available space.

If you decide to clad your furniture with marble, we recommend a stainless steel countertop, for a nice mix of materials. Marble can have an amazing effect, when combined with semi-precious stones and metal.

If you decide for a stone kitchen countertop, you’ll have no worries about stains. The natural stone will not stain if we seal it after installation and re-apply sealings agent every 1-2 years. This procedure takes only 2-3 minutes, delivering a surface immune to virtually anything, wine included.

Stone Countertop – unique and durable

We consider kitchen to be functional first and foremost and only then aesthetic. Durability is a feature of kitchen’s functionality, because you are supposedly allowed to do whatever you want in here, without worrying about furniture. Natural stone is a very durable material and if properly cared for, you don't even have to worry about staining or damaging its surface.

Stone is a more and more popular natural material, especially because it is very easy to customize. As a result, each kitchen has a different look, thus creating a particular singularity. Compared to composite materials, the price of natural stone can be even five times lower – of course, depending on the chosen material and the size of your piece.

Cut-to-size countertop, for your furniture

The tiles we are installing have on average approximately 2 meters. But you don't have to worry about whether your countertop has to be bigger or smaller. Any custom piece is cut from a slab, a large sheet of stone that allows us to cut the size we want.

Depending on your preference for a material and the size you need, we can create the right size for your project. We will, however, be careful, so that its size will allow a safe transport and a secure installation later.
