This Countertop Trend is Fading Quickly

And since we pride ourselves on being the best of the best, we make it our mission to stay on top of the latest home design trends.

Countertops, like any other home design element, have style trends that come and go and at least one style is fading into the background to make room for something new. The trend that’s currently biting the dust is speckled granite, and we can’t say we’re terribly sad about it. Why? Because the new styles that are replacing this popular 2010s trend are so spectacular!

You’re so Vein

The biggest trend in countertops right now is the natural stone look and the great thing about this trend is that it comes in many faces. One popular style is the veined stone cut. Veined countertops add a rather dramatic, high-end appeal to the room.

Sleek and Solid

If veined isn’t your thing, you may be a fan of the sleek, solid stone cuts of granite that are also gaining popularity right now. We like these because we think they transcend multiple styles and we foresee these styles sticking around for a while.

Tried and True

While one style of granite is on its way out, other countertops like butcher block, quartz, stainless steel, and marble are still as popular as ever. If you’re not a fan of the new granite styles, any of these tried-and-true favorites are great options, too.
