Is Granite Out Of Style
Style and beauty.
Is granite out of style. Blues may go in and out of style but sapphires are always beautiful. Concrete countertops are available in a number of different colors. According to trulia design panel s trend predictions released last month granite countertops are out. What is trendy today might just fall out of favor in the future.
The first reason is that once a style trickles down to big box stores it becomes builder grade and everyone has it. Natural materials like wood or granite aren t made with trends in mind. Sometimes homebuyers or home sellers know this from personal experience. In the same way a natural granite that takes your breath away today will not look dated in ten years just because it happens to look great with current styles.
It also ages beautifully acquiring a characterful patina. It loses its feeling of luxury. A concrete countertop is heavy duty cool looking and as you d expect super durable. Bring out your brutalist side with a chunky slab of concrete in the kitchen.
The colors and pattern in each slab of granite were brought together without human intervention long before there were even such a thing as design trends. And in a kitchen trends survey conducted by houzz the home remodeling and design resource found that granite is no longer the most popular countertop material. Of course certain colors and patterns will be more popular at certain times but the material itself will never go out of style. If the kitchen is the culprit in your case you could be casting a suspicious eye at your granite countertops.
