Choosing a new kitchen countertop can be tricky.  There are colors that are very popular that will go with almost any aesthetic.  Those quartz colors typically are typically white, earth tone and neutral.  We find it easiest to work with colors that coordinate well with stained wood.  In Wisconsin and especially in Appleton, we find that many houses have Oak Cabinets.  Granite or Quartz to coordinate with Oak or Maple cabinets is fairly easy.  We suggest finding a neural color that works with paint colors.  Also, we shy away from colors that are temporary or trendy such as gray, purple, or pink.  

Here are some top countertop colors that are generally well-liked and versatile in Wisconsin:

1. Neutral Tones: Shades of white, beige, and gray are timeless choices that complement various kitchen styles. They can create a clean, classic look and pair well with different cabinet finishes.
2. Earth Tones: Warm colors like tan, caramel, and taupe can bring a cozy and inviting feel to a kitchen. These colors often work well with wood cabinetry and can add a touch of warmth to the space.
3. Black and Dark Gray: Bold and sophisticated, black or dark gray countertops can create a striking contrast in a kitchen. They are particularly popular in modern and industrial-style kitchens.
4. Veined or Marbled Patterns: Countertops with veining or marbling in shades of white, gray, or beige are quite popular. They can add visual interest and texture to the kitchen while still maintaining a neutral palette.

We see patterns such as Viatera Maccubus Bianco and Minuet popular.  Also, Cambria’s Berwyn and Britannica as popular options.  Many of our Power Buy colors rank in the top 20 from our manufacturers in the Midwest.  This is because they encompass Neutral, Earth tones with a slight vein or marbled pattern.  

When choosing a countertop color, consider factors such as the overall kitchen design, lighting, and how the color will blend with other elements in the space. Ultimately, the best countertop color is one that you love and that fits well with your personal style and the ambiance you want to create in your kitchen.
