Current Home Design Trends: Trending Countertops & Stone

April 9, 2025

When it comes to kitchen and bath design, countertops play a starring role—not just in functionality but in style. At Trusst Builder Group, we're seeing a substantial shift toward statement surfaces that elevate the entire space. Here are some of the countertop and stone trends making waves in today's homes:

1. Quartz is Queen

Low-maintenance, highly durable, and endlessly stylish—quartz remains a top choice for homeowners. Its versatility in color and pattern makes it easy to match with both modern and traditional styles. Soft whites, subtle veining, and matte finishes are especially on trend this year.

2. Bold Veining & Marble Looks

Homeowners are leaning into high-contrast veining for a dramatic, luxurious look. For an upscale touch, marble-inspired quartz and natural stones with bold lines are popular in kitchens, bathrooms, and even laundry rooms.

3. Honed & Leathered Finishes

Glossy isn't the only option anymore. Honed and leathered finishes are gaining popularity for their softer, more natural texture. These finishes add visual depth and are perfect for creating a warm, organic vibe.

4. Warm Neutrals & Earthy Tones

Beige, taupe, and creamy neutrals are making a comeback, offering a more grounded alternative to stark white. These tones pair beautifully with natural wood cabinets and brass fixtures for a cozy yet sophisticated aesthetic.

5. Waterfall Edges

For those looking to make a bold design statement, waterfall edges remain a go-to. This sleek, continuous stone look is especially popular on kitchen islands, tying the whole space together with elegance.
