In the kitchen interior, much depends on the correct choice of countertop. Everything is important - color, shade, material, combination with the general background.

While facades and fittings can be replaced at any time, installing a new countertop will be a hassle.

Yulia Tychino, an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" in the field of design and interior, told how to make the right choice.

Color

If you have an idea of the kitchen interior, you can start planning.

For example, for a kitchen set in blue, green, lilac or pink, you can choose a gray or marble work surface.

You can select the material to match the color of the floor, ceiling or other furniture.

Shades

When choosing a color, do not forget that against the general background of the kitchen furniture, the surface should be a couple of shades lighter or darker.

Style

If we are talking about a minimalist style, then black or white, as well as gray, are chosen.

Beige, brown and other natural colours are suitable for classics.

Material

You can't save on a countertop, so you shouldn't choose cheap and unreliable materials.

Consider quartz agglomerate, acrylic or natural stone.

These countertops will last for years.
