Kitchen Design. Topic: Countertops

​When you start thinking about countertops decide first what your style is and what look you are trying to achieve with your kitchen design. If you are drawn to sleek, contemporary fitted kitchens, consider Corian, or even glass or stainless steel for that extra wow factor. Real wood countertops are another option and also lend themselves to the more traditionally styled fitted kitchen, where you might also expect to see granite and marble worktops. For a more rustic kitchen design, butcher block and tiled countertops can add real charm. It is important however, not to feel fettered by these conventional choices. Berceli kitchen design in New Jersey is fresh and innovative, so do not be afraid to think outside the box.

Consider too how your kitchen will be used. For example, if you breakfast there, a kitchen design which adapts a worktop into a breakfast bar could be a smart option. If you do a lot of cooking, installing hot rods will give a heat proof space for hot pans. If your fitted kitchen will be subject to lots of wear and tear, discuss durable and/or scratch resistant materials with your interior design consultant Berceli NJ. If you entertain in your fitted kitchen, consider curved corners for a sleek finish and to open up your space.

Countertops have a big impact on the look of a finished kitchen but are far from the whole story. To achieve a high-end luxury finish for your fitted kitchen, you are well advised to appoint a company who not only specializes in Kitchen interior design in New Jersey, but who is committed to finessing your kitchen design - from your countertops right down to the smallest details.

If cabinets are the ‘cake’ of luxury kitchen design, then countertops are most definitely the cherry on top. Long gone are the days of just opting for the most sympathetic granite laminate for your fitted kitchen. 

Today, countertops come in a wealth of quality materials and a spectrum of colors. They can hold a whole kitchen design together or make a bold statement as a stand out feature. And it is worth taking the time to get this right. In much the same way as an artist selects their canvas with care, your countertops should offer you the perfect work surface and be a real pleasure to use.

Your choice in countertops will naturally be affected by the cabinetry and other elements within your fitted kitchen, but do be aware of the multitude of options available to you. For exceptional interior design in New Jersey, choose a company which specializes in kitchen design. They will be able to offer the greatest choice in fitted kitchens and will have the experience to guide you.
