The 3-second countertop test

Before you fall in love with a slab, give it three seconds and check three things: color, movement, and undertone.

Does the color work with your cabinets and floors? Is the veining too bold or too quiet for the rest of the kitchen? And most importantly, does the stone lean warm or cool?

A countertop can be beautiful on its own and still feel wrong in your space. The best choice isn’t just the slab that catches your eye — it’s the one that makes the whole kitchen work together.
