Although granite countertops are renowned for their eye-catching beauty and durability, it can be difficult for some homeowners to find the right decor to complement their new granite features. Whether you want to enhance your kitchen with granite countertops or want to transform your bathroom into a luxurious, spa-like getaway, our team at Complete Kitchen & Bath is here to assist you.
Below, we’d like to go over a couple steps you can take to ensure the rest of your home decor effortlessly complements your new granite countertops.
Step 1: Recognize your granite’s unique colors and veining patterns.
Each slab of granite features unique color patterns, veins, and textures that you need to consider before decorating the rest of the room. We recommend identifying the dominant colors in your granite countertops and determining if they’re primarily light or dark. Furthermore, closely look at the veins in the granite to find any additional accent colors that stand out to you.
Step 2: Select complementary color tones.
If your granite countertops feature multicolored veins, several bold colors, or other intricate details, it’s best to stick to neutral tones or soft, earthy colors. White, gray, beige, and green colors can blend well with any decor and architectural style. If your granite features more warm-colored tones, things like wood furniture, bronze hardware, and other warm-colored pieces of decor can enhance the space. If your granite countertops are cool toned, select shades of blue, green, or black features.
Step 3: Embrace natural materials.
Adding natural features into your home can make your space feel more inviting and relaxing while making the granite stand out. Stone or ceramic accessories, such as soap holders, trays, and plant holders, can blend seamlessly with granite countertops. Wood accents and furniture can add more warmth to the room, while incorporating green plants can add small pops of natural beauty.
