WHICH IS THE MOST DURABLE KITCHEN COUNTERTOP?

Leaving the first months of 2023 behind, it was a matter of curiosity what new design trends are. The recent severe epidemic has led to a reshaping of interior and exterior design. Minimalist designs that started in 2010 gave way to more personal and maximalist designs during the lockdown process caused by the pandemic. Today, designers tend to customize home and office environments by thinking about human psychology. Projects that intouch with nature by combining healthy living design with aesthetics continued to maintain their place in the trends. If you are wondering about the new design trends in place designs, let's take a look at our article.

Marble was considered as the best countertop material, with a myriad of colors and patterns, from light to dark, creating a focal point in the environment. Quartz and porcelain countertops, which are durable and easy to clean thanks to their durable and non-porous structure, started to take the place of marble in different application areas such as kitchen, bathroom counters or work tables. Thanks to their versatility, square meter price advantages and marble-look options, they were the first choice countertops. With the increasing popularity of durable and maintenance-free materials, porcelain slabs, which combine the classic and the contemporary, became the best exterior coating materials this year. The use of stone or wood-look slabs together with porcelain slabs with colors of blue and green in harmony with the environment, created a warm and modern look for the exterior.

There has been an increase in demand for the use of natural materials and earth tones in interior designs inspired by nature. The best wall covering was wall panels with the appearance of natural materials, focusing on healthy living in designs and enhancing the comfort of the environment. Porcelain slabs with a wood effect that evokes a sense of nature or a rich marble effect that makes it bold statement add an aesthetic and natural touch to living rooms, bedrooms and hallways. Personal preferences came into prominence in floor veneer, which have become an important part of interior design. Flooring models that vary according to the question of whether it is a single or multi-colored floor that will add showiness to furniture and accessories or a floor with patterns and textured surfaces that will provide a simpler, clean look, can create the desired atmosphere with the right choice. Although the best floor covering varies according to the room, ultra-matte floors have always been in demand rather than glossy parquet floors. Quartz or porcelain slabs with classic, easy-to-clean and clean looking, art deco, geometric patterns in areas such as bathrooms and kitchens were seen as the best floor veneer this year.

Sustainable living affected residential and commercial projects as well as every aspect of life. Increasing conscious consumption has led to the development of sustainable methods, from energy saving to water conservation, without affecting efficiency. Porcelain, which can preserve heat for a long time thanks to its high thermal conductivity, was the best covering for bathroom areas in wet areas. Porcelain slabs add a luxurious and timeless look to the bathroom with their sizes and models, regardless of whether they are used on the floor or on the wall. Apart from waterproof porcelain slabs, waterproof bathroom floor veneer such as PVC and laminate are also highly preferred.
