This helps create a designed and curated look. Now onto how you should coordinate your counters, cabinets, and floors.\u00a0 This depends a lot on the look you\u2019re going for; Sleek and contemporary, it may require something very monochromatic with very little contrast.\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carpetguys.com\/blog\/midcentury-modern-interior-design\/\">Mid-Century Modern<\/a>, there is going to be some deeper color and definite contrast.<\/li>\n<li>Trends come and go so make sure you make selections that can tend towards classic and timeless. If you want something that is trendier think paint colors or keep in mind that it might need to be changed out in a few years.\u00a0 Select timeless cabinet styles but use a backsplash to create drama.\u00a0 Wood species and whether it should be painted change, but a good design with classic lines will help keep things looking fresh longer.<\/li>\n<li>We are really trying to help clients find man-made quartz products for countertops.\u00a0 Not only do we get a lot of choices in color and movement, but the client gets a product that doesn\u2019t need to be sealed yearly and doesn\u2019t easily stain.\u00a0 So, we would suggest man-made quartz.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4212\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carpetguys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/lauren-bockin.jpg\" alt=\"should wood floors match kitchen cabinets\" width=\"775\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carpetguys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/lauren-bockin.jpg 775w, https:\/\/www.carpetguys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/lauren-bockin-300x155.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.carpetguys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/lauren-bockin-768x396.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 775px) 100vw, 775px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Lauren Bockin &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ewkitchens\/\">E.W. Kitchens<\/a><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>We see it all and it truly depends on your lifestyle and the needs of your family.\u00a0 Wood is always a popular choice but it doesn\u2019t quite withstand the impact resistant drops that kitchens often face (think dropping a pan of boiling water \u2013 oh no!). If budgets are a constraint, we\u2019re noticing an uptick in people selecting laminate, engineered woods or even <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carpetguys.com\/prices\/vinyl\/\">vinyl flooring options<\/a> too.\u00a0 These choices often come at a fraction of the price but can provide a very similar look.<\/li>\n<li>No, no, no!\u00a0 To avoid a look that is flat and too much material in one space, we recommend homeowners try to maintain a contrast between cabinetry and flooring.\u00a0 If going with a wood or laminate floor, you\u2019ll also want to consider both materials in the same wood tone.\u00a0 If your flooring will be a tile or stone material, considering a color in the same color family as your countertop material.<\/li>\n<li>Trends come and go, but we are seeing a few exciting design aspects now that we believe will stand the test of time!\u00a0 First up, single-level islands.\u00a0 A flat extended countertop provides significantly more workspace than a raised tier and provides a better sight-line into the rest of the kitchen.\u00a0 Which brings us next to open concept kitchens.\u00a0 We don\u2019t see this trend going anywhere in the near future as these open concepts make the kitchen more than just a space for cooking and dining.\u00a0 Another would be transitional kitchen designs.\u00a0 Transitional designs are more clean-lined than their traditional kitchen counterparts but offer more function than contemporary or modern designs.<\/li>\n<li>Most cabinetry we\u2019re designing and installing these days are being topped with 3 main materials for countertops.\u00a0 First up, engineered stone.\u00a0 Engineered stone typically uses about 90 percent quartz in its manufacturing process which yields a tough, durable product.\u00a0 It\u2019s strong, it\u2019s beautiful, and unlike granite, it doesn\u2019t need to be sealed.\u00a0 Marble would be another popular option that many of our clients consider.\u00a0 A softer and more porous material than the nearly indestructible granite, this stone can scratch and stain fairly easily \u2013 which is a small price to pay for the classic, timeless look of a beautiful bright slab of marble.\u00a0 The last contender in the countertop debate would be granite.\u00a0 Things like hot pots, serrated knives, and most stains are no match for this hard standing material, which is why many families decide this is the best option for their space.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4215 alignright\" style=\"padding-left: 7px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carpetguys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/nick-vanderhovel.jpg\" alt=\"matching laminate flooring to cabinets\" width=\"350\" height=\"553\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carpetguys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/nick-vanderhovel.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.carpetguys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/nick-vanderhovel-190x300.jpg 190w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/>Nick Vanderhovel &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/dreamkitchens\/\">Dream Kitchens<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Whether it\u2019s cabinetry, flooring, or countertops, they all have their benefits and their shortcomings which a professional can help you make an educated decision on which product is ideal for your space.<\/p>\n<p>When building a palette, we start with the most expensive product first. Why you may ask? Because you better love it the most because it\u2019s going to dictate many of your subsequent decisions. Let\u2019s look at cabinets since that\u2019s our specialty.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ve been barraged by shaker white kitchens with their clean lines and adaptable styles, but did you know that they are terribly difficult to keep pristine? That painted finishes require more upkeep than the honey oak or thermofoil white you ripped out.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t get me wrong, the majority of what we sell are white kitchens, but stained cabinets will last longer over time. Now you have a decision to make whether style or longevity is your most important purchasing factor.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s choose style this time around since most of us do (coming from someone with painted cabinets in his own home). We need to pair our cabinets with the perfect flooring material.<\/p>\n<p>Older homes with vast changes in humidity or the kids tracking in water from the lake can cause negative effects on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carpetguys.com\/hardwood\/\">natural wood flooring<\/a>. But lucky us, we hypothetically live in a subdivision where those factors don\u2019t affect us as much (we still need to maintain proper humidity in every home!) so we can have the solid wood hardwood of our dreams.<\/p>\n<p>WE LOVE CONTRAST! Nothing will draw out the individual features of a room like contrast. Medium and dark hardwoods pair exceptionally well with white cabinets, but how do you choose between the two? The right granite or quartz countertop or your plumbing, hardware, lighting and other finishing touches can help you determine the direction you want to go.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"size-full wp-image-4218 alignright\" style=\"padding-left: 7px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carpetguys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/marnie-weidman-2.jpg\" alt=\"coordinating kitchen cabinets and flooring\" width=\"350\" height=\"553\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carpetguys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/marnie-weidman-2.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.carpetguys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/marnie-weidman-2-190x300.jpg 190w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/>Marnie Weidman &#8211; Mrs. Dub Designs<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Stone or tile (porcelain) works well as it makes cabinet wood\/color selection much easier as it can be more challenging to work with different woods, depending on the scenario. I like to use large format (20&#215;20) porcelain tiles in kitchen areas but am also seeing more great plank product options.<\/li>\n<li>I like to contrast floors and cabinets\/counters. If I use a darker grey\/brown on the floor, I&#8217;ll often go to a lighter painted cabinet and counter with some kind of pattern movement.<\/li>\n<li>Trends change all the time! Everyone is looking to make a good investment when they replace flooring for kitchens\/bathrooms so selecting clean, classic finishes that will remain timeless is usually the goal.<\/li>\n<li>Solid surfaces have been popular for countertops, islands, coordinating tables for years. There are many great natural options (granite) and man-made options (various quartz products) giving consumers the ability to create every aesthetic from traditional to contemporary. Each product has its own traits, so make sure to understand the pros\/cons of each before deciding what your counter will be made from. I stay away from using marble in kitchens as it can stain or etch and that can be heartbreaking but there are excellent marble patterns in quartz products.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 style=\"padding-bottom: 7px;\">Kitchen Flooring Advice from Our Pros!<\/h2>\n<p>For the best kitchen flooring, we have always recommended <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carpetguys.com\/vinyl\/vinyl-plank-flooring\/\">luxury vinyl plank<\/a> or tile products, and we continue to do so.<\/p>\n<p>It works the best for areas that deal with moisture and water on a routine basis.
