1950s Kitchen Counter Help, Opinions wanted!
Comments (21)Imhappy&Iknowit IOWA zone 6b: Oh, I love that site! I have definitely wasted evenings scrolling through sites like that :D cpartist I have some of the samples of the Retro Renovation boomerang laminates, and I like them, but I don't know if I will tire of them. Both my husband and I are alllmost there, but not quite. taylvs3: We were pretty close to going with white Corian, but we feel like it would be very unforgiving with our boys.

Comments (3)I’d probably put one of the light corian selections or a basic light granite. Then in truth I’d spend more time looking for a great backsplash to alleviate those shadowy receding corners.

Comments (7)Not sure I like the gray cabinet door next to your floors. Does it look better in person? The door looks like it's too cool a color for the floor. Black might work better, and it seems to be a consensus on this forum that gray is on its way out or is already over. But to be clear, I think the floor is beautiful, so no need to change it. I like an island in a different color than the perimeter cabinets, but I would prefer the same countertop throughout. I think your island would stand out enough without having a different countertop. There are lots of different opinions on quartz vs granite. IMO, this is a question of whether you prefer a natural material to manmade. I think you could find as many people prefer one as the other. If you get a counter with some movement (looks busy), then you should choose a monotone backsplash so they don't compete. But as Patricia says, the backsplash comes last. There are so many options in tile that you don't have to worry that you'll find something you like....See MoreNodak
