Opting for dark may mean that your countertop looks better for longer. In recent years, there has been a strong tendency for people to select lighter quartz Kitchen Countertops in Cane Bay SC, preferring various shades of white and light gray. Choosing lighter kitchen countertops has a lot of advantages. On the one hand, they'll brighten up your space and ultimately make it feel more inviting. Because lightweight countertops provide a more neutral feel, they also complement several different design styles, allowing you to play with color in your space more freely.
HanStone Quartz offers a wide range of options when it comes to selecting your quartz countertops. From a smooth, bright white or a white with subtle veins to something more dramatic with a lot of movement, there will certainly be a color that suits your tastes. While dark countertops are bold and fun, they can also make a space look smaller. Dark colors absorb more light and can make a small room seem even less spacious.
Generally speaking, lighter countertops actually look clean and crisp. They also have designs that appear more pronounced creating an attractive focal point. Darker countertops, by comparison, are considered more elegant, and darker tones and textures add a cool environment. A kitchen island is the perfect place to give it a pop of color, whether it darkens the cabinets or the countertops are changed.
One of the drawbacks of dark kitchen countertops is that they absorb light instead of reflecting it, causing the kitchen to shrink. The combination of darker cabinets and countertops can also be fantastic, like this kitchen with cabinets finished with cosmic black granite and dark wood. Number one on many people's lists of why kitchen countertops should be light in color is their reflective quality. Dark kitchen countertops also have the advantage of being available in a wide range of materials, explains Alex Main, of The Main Company.
