Designing Your Countertop

Consider the following tips to help you get the most out of your countertop design:

  • Countertops accentuate the beauty of the room and provide the look of increased depth when they are approximately one shade lighter than the floor.
  • If you have wallpaper or a border in the room, picking one of the background colors as an accent is a good choice for countertop color.
  • If countertops joints/seams are necessary, avoid placing countertop joints/seams in locations where a sink or other cut out will be placed.
  • Carefully consider the type of edge your countertop will have.
    Example: Fully wrapped laminate edges, can not only protect the entire edge from moisture, but will also create the look of a solid surface or granite top with the right choice of laminate.
  • Use custom edge styles to enhance the finished look of your countertops.
