Today, we’re going to help you decide between light and dark kitchen countertops.
Are you getting renovations done for your kitchen? Maybe you’re in the process of getting a new kitchen countertop installed? If you are, you’ll want to consider the design of your countertop carefully. It’s one of the features that stands out the most in your kitchen, so you’ll want to make sure the design works well with the rest of the room. When it comes to kitchen countertops, something important to consider is the countertop’s color. You’ll either settle on a light or dark countertop color, and each option has its merits. Today, we’re going to help you decide between light and dark kitchen countertops.
About Light Kitchen Countertops
Colors such as cream, beige, and white are popular options for kitchen countertops. Just like with walls and ceilings, when you get a light color for your kitchen countertop, you make the room feel more spacious. This makes light kitchen countertops great for smaller kitchens that don’t want to feel as cramped.
You do have to worry about stains and marks developing on them, however. Light colors will show stains more easily, so you need to clean them more often to keep them looking their best.
About Dark Kitchen Countertops
Dark countertop colors, like black and brown, can add a classy touch to the look of your kitchen. These colors conceal stains more easily, making them suitable for people who don’t want to worry about constantly wiping away marks that their kitchen countertops might show. Dark kitchen countertops also make rooms look smaller. This makes dark colors better for larger kitchens that people might want to feel more cozy.
If you’re going to get a dark color for your kitchen countertop, you’ll need to consider your lighting situation. Dark colors absorb light rather than reflect it. This means you’ll want to have more natural light in your kitchen in order to improve visibility in the room.
