What Color are you Feeling

By Chris Barr

I’ve been thinking a lot about color lately as the sky darkens early and the full moon is a beautiful piece of golden butter.  In our business, where we focus everyday on kitchen countertops and shower walls, we tend to be driven by the advantages of durability, ease of installation and zero maintenance.  Sometimes we forget that a big piece of our customers’ decision-making process is simply about beauty.  What do they want to see and be surrounded by every time they walk into the room they’ve remodeled?

At Granite Transformations, our Design Consultants will help you create an environment that truly reflects your own personal style and that will make you happy each time you see it every day.  There’s an almost unlimited combination of patterns and colors with the artisan glass backsplash materials that are exclusively ours.

In the world of design, there’s been a major movement lately towards grays and metallic’s.  Tarek and Christina El Moussa, the famed Flippers of HGTV, have designed several colors for our company highlighting this trend.  They’re quite special – and at the crest of the industry as a whole.  The engineered surfaces we have developed that mimic the sweeping elegance of marble patterns in our much more durable material have created a new way to personalize the look of your home.  And colors like royal ivory, which was developed for the Victoria’s Secret stores, combine the softer earth-tone palettes with touches of warmth and brightness.

I often remember an enthusiastic woman who stopped by our booth at the Auburn Home Show a couple of years ago, whose kitchen counters we had overlain in a bright red recycled glass color nearly a decade ago.  She told me that the color of her kitchen surfaces still makes her smile every single morning when she walks in there for the first time.  We can do that for you too, if that’s what best express your personality and your vision.  Colors like deep cobalt blue, warm copper and rich ebony with a touch of sparkle.  Your Design Consultant can help make that fantasy a reality.

So, though you never want to overlook the fundamental importance of the quality of the product itself, you don’t have to sacrifice beauty, brightness or elegance to get there. For a complimentary session with one of our trained Design Consultants, just call (916) 851-9745.
