Now that it is so fashionable to renovate older kitchens with only paint, a trend that we love when the budget does not allow more, we would like to remind you that changing the countertop can also help change the style.
We love the photos that go through social networks before and after kitchens that have been given a completely different look only with paint or vinyl.
We are not always unhappy with kitchen furniture, sometimes there are other elements that we would like to change to give them another air, more Nordic, more modern, or more industrial.
For example, if the furniture in your kitchen is not very old, it is almost certainly white and has straight lines, which ensures at least a few more years of life without getting tired, yes, if you were the ones who fell asleep ago a decade into the trend of colored Corian countertops because surely you are already tired of that pistachio green or violet that were so in demand.
Why not just change the countertop then? If you are looking for a Nordic air there is no doubt, wood, as 90% of homes in the Nordic countries have and yes, wood is a fantastic material for a countertop for domestic use and no, it does not need so much care if you buy one that is specific for kitchens. – You may have noticed the ringtone tone in the phrase for sure, but this has been a recurring theme on the blog in the last 10 years and there are still people who do not understand that wood is a perfectly viable material for the countertop and that millions of people in the world use it every day at home and for years, without any problem. Let’s banish once and for all that misconception that wood for countertops is not a good material, because it is a lie.
The other material that you can bet on if you want to bet on a Scandinavian style is white marble, a resistant material that requires little care, like wood, to stay perfect. Besides, for those who like pastries, it is the perfect base to work dough :) Look at this Swedish floor how beautiful the combo, off-white furniture with white marble, very elegant right?
What material is your countertop made of? And the color? Would you change it to a wooden one?
