What countertops are in style?: 10 ideas for 2022<\/strong> <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nLonger kitchen islands <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nKitchen islands are a vital aspect of the kitchen design. Move over short kitchen islands; enter longer kitchen islands. Homeowners are now opting for longer kitchen islands in 2022, given the ability to cook, entertain and work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The creation of extra storage space also contributes to this trend. Most homeowners have even added closed-door cabinets below their island countertops that are perfect for storing their cooking equipment and kitchen tools. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dark toned countertops <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nFirst-time homeowners always wonder what kitchen countertops are in style, especially when trying to achieve a balance between countertop trends, personal preference and functionality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gone are the days when dark-toned countertops were barely used. Now, homeowners are starting to incorporate dark countertop colors into their kitchen designs, and even pairing these counter surfaces with other dark and bold elements in their spaces. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
For instance, the black-countertop-black-cabinet trend is a great combination that adds depth and character into any kitchen space. While some may be skeptical about this pairing, this black-on-black theme is never boring. Luckily, there are a wide variety of black hues from which to choose from, including veined, speckled<\/a>, solid, and industrial countertops. One popular option is 5101 Empira Black<\/a>, a deep, dark stone with subtle white veins that dance across the surface of the quartz slab. <\/p>\n\n\n\nQuartz backsplashes <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nThe majority of today\u2019s kitchens are now featuring countertops that extend into the backsplash, creating a unique and opulent look. This trend makes a statement in any space in the home. Picture a kitchen with a matching countertop and backsplash of beautiful quartz colors, like 5161 Icellion<\/a> or 5212 Taj Royale<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/caesarstone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/5141_Frosty-Carrina_olives-1920X1080-1024x576.jpg\")
