Overused Granite Countertops: Time to Move On
Granite countertops have been a staple in kitchens worldwide due to their durability and the luxurious touch they offer. However, the ubiquitous use of heavily patterned granite is starting to see a decline in popularity. This trend, which once screamed high-end, now risks dating your space.
As interior design moves towards more sustainable and versatile materials like quartz and recycled glass, granite’s environmental impact and the busy patterns that often clash with a more modern, minimalist kitchen aesthetic become more apparent. Furthermore, the maintenance involved with keeping granite pristine can deter the new wave of home renovators looking for ease and functionality in their design choices.
