With a stainless steel countertop you get that professional restaurant-kitchen look and along with the style and elegance it provides an easy-to-clean surface that protects your kitchen. Usually stainless steel countertops contain a dash of chromium to make it rust-resistant and are typically attached to plywood to provide strength and deaden its sound. Though they are expensive as compared to ceramic tiles and stones but will add a touch of modern urban chic and still blend well with most color schemes and design themes.
While considering stainless steel a "neutral" may seem like a surprising choice, but the metallic hue blends well with most any color. The surface is also the choice of restaurants for a reason: Stainless steel is nonporous (which limits the growth of bacteria), doesn't chip or scratch and requires minimal maintenance. |
