The natural aesthetics and sheer beauty of Granite can be enjoyed from the floor to the ceiling in a bathroom. A few great examples are Granite tub surrounds, Granite shower enclosures, and Granite vanity tops.

I want to use quartz for my new kitchen and bathroom countertops. However, is Quartz Countertop fashionable and will look old-fashioned quickly?

Did you know that quartz has been around since the 60s? That's right! It was developed by an Italian company founded in 1963. The company recognized the enormous potential for developing new techniques and manufacturing industrial equipment for the production of this type of "composite stone" and it quickly caught on in European kitchens and bathrooms.

And for the first time in history, 2016 marks the point when industry experts say quartz will be the most widely used countertop surface in the U.S., finally overtaking the ever-popular granite countertop.

So when you study the history of quartz, it's clear that it's much more than a "trend." It simply took time for Americans to "catch up" in the market. And now that they have, quartz is destined to be a material that gets better with time.

Thanks to technological improvements in quartz manufacturing, surfaces like this Siberian White Color Quartz look more organic and natural.

Manufacturers have done a lot to develop the technology needed to improve design and production techniques. Advances have resulted in quartz having a far more pleasing aesthetic. Manufacturers can now avoid unnaturally uniform patterns and make it appear more "organic." In fact, some quartz surfaces, like that of our favorite Color Quartz, look so much like natural marble or granite that you can hardly tell the difference!

Combine its good looks with its durability, and it's easy to see why quartz is so much more than just a design fashion. Some of the most notable "benefits" of quartz are:

  • It contains real quartz, the hardest mineral on earth.
  • It is naturally non-porous, making it stain resistant and impervious to acidic substances.
  • It is hygienic as it does not trap germs and bacteria.
  • It is resistant to scratching and chipping - perfect for those who want their countertop to always look perfect and like new.
  • It never needs to be sealed, unlike granite countertop and marble, which need to be sealed at least once a year.
  • The price is about the same as marble and granite countertop.
  • It comes in almost every color of the rainbow.

So the short answer to your question is No. You will not make your kitchen and bathroom look outdated if you choose quartz. In fact, you will be choosing a material that is designed to likely outlast your taste in decor!
