Marble countertops in Alpharetta continue to be at the top of kitchen wish lists. Marble is listed as a kitchen design trend in every design magazine and on every decorating website. What accounts for this consistent rise in popularity? Why is cool marble so hot? Style Current design trends for kitchens are using whites, grays, and cool blues. Cabinets are increasingly painted rather than stained. Islands are bigger and designed differently from perimeter units to make more of a statement. These design elements are a perfect fit for marble. Marble is naturally white and gray in color, and its unique veining is just the element a statement island needs to set it apart from the rest of the kitchen. With kitchens becoming more and more the focal point of home design, family life, and entertaining, you want your kitchen to look its best. With marble countertops, you can create a design scheme that you and your family and friends will love for years to come! Practicality Almost by definition, you know marble will last forever. Monuments around the world are built from marble and they have only become more beautiful with age. Marble has a bit of a reputation for being difficult to maintain because it is porous and soft, but there is another side to that story. Because marble is soft, it is easy to fix. Having a marble countertop repolished or rehoned to remove years of etching and scratching is no problem at all, which is not true for any other natural stone surface. Most food or liquid stains will fade over time and just add to the patina of the stone. Additionally, regular and careful sealing of the marble works effectively to prevent any of these problems. Are marble countertops in Alpharetta on your wish list? Don't wait another day to make that wish a reality.
