  • A Designer's Guide To
    A Designer’s Guide to Countertops BY JAMIE GOLD Style and use are the keys to choosing the right product for your kitchen 52 FINE HOMEBUILDING Photo this page: courtesy of the author COPYRIGHT 2013 by The Taunton Press, Inc. Copying and distribution of this article is not permitted. here is no one-size-fits-all countertop for every kitchen, just as there is no one-size-fits-all kitchen for every home. When I began working as a designer close to a decade ago, most clients came to me wanting granite countertops. TThey ogled the large island covered in granite that we had on dis- play—where no one ever cooked, chopped vegetables, mixed drinks, did homework, worked on art projects, or cleaned up after dinner. Looking rich and beautiful is easy if you never do a day’s work. It’s harder for countertops subjected to the rigors of a family’s daily liv- ing, especially spills, splatters, and flying projectiles. I design kitchens with an approach I call “sensible style.” Its first principle is that your kitchen needs to fit how you really live. The second sensible-style principle is that your new kitchen should honor the home it’s being installed in; this means that your new coun- tertops should complement the overall style and materials of the areas that surround the kitchen, as well as those in the kitchen itself. I’ve seen too many homeowners—and even some industry pros—choose a countertop without considering its maintenance requirements, durability, material properties such as softness or porosity, warranty, or even the way a pattern might play against neighboring surfaces such as kitchen cabinetry and flooring.
