There are many established and emerging trends when it comes to kitchen decor and you can be sure that Prima’s products will be up to date with the latest trends.
One of the current popular designs is to incorporate neutral colours into a minimalist design. Whites, greys and shades of cream with stone effects are a popular combination, with a splash of colour on splashbacks.
What sizes are available in the Prima range?
Selecting the right size for your worktop can be difficult, especially if your workspace is not a standard size.
Prima worktops are available in lengths of:
When it comes to width, most worktops are available in 600mm as standard but some worktops are available in a thickness of 650mm.
Thickness is a key element to consider when making design choices. Some people prefer bolder lines when choosing wood or stone effects, whilst others interested in a minimalist look will want slimmer work surfaces for subtler lines.
Finally, you can choose from a number different edging strips for your worktops to finish the look off properly. Curved edges rather than squared are currently particularly popular with customers, creating a natural, flowing look, particularly on breakfast bars.
What accessories are available in the Prima range?
Once you have decided on the worktop you want for your kitchen, the next step is to think about getting the right accessories to complete your kitchen design. Prima offer an excellent range of accessories that can be matched to your colour and surfaces choices of your worktop meaning you can create a continuous flow of pattern throughout your chosen style, including breakfast bars, and matching splashbacks and upstands.
A splashback can either be used for continuity or for juxtaposition; keep the subtle lines flowing up the wall or go bold with some bright colours to change things up. A breakfast bar is always a smart choice no matter what your kitchen is like. It can make all the difference when making your kitchen a place where the whole family can enjoy spending time, not just at meal times. Upstands can tie together all of your design choices and create the desired ambience.
What colours are available in the Prima range?
Colour can be a real sticking point and is often the first consideration to be made when planning your kitchen and deciding which worktops you want.
With Prima’s choice of colours, you should be able to achieve your desired look easily and with as little stress as possible.
With current trends in mind, customers going for the beauty of natural materials involving light woods and stone will choose these textures and brown or neutral worktops.
Black is a classic choice for a sleek, sophisticated kitchen and to complement white counters.
If you’re looking for a neutral look, you’re likely to look at white or cream worktops that offer a more muted tone that is often complemented by thinner worktops and can be set off using a brighter colour on your splashback.
Always keep the colour of your kitchen cabinets in mind when choosing your worktop and try to go for colours that match or complement them. Get your colours and lighting right and you’ll have the perfect family kitchen that you’ll enjoy spending time in.
