An important consideration in your kitchen is to keep the choices open in two places, the dining table that could be for dining or preparation area if needed for example The French oak dining table with rounded edges surrounded by polite nude color chairs around in the picture above, could be used in the two ways as well as for drinking the morning coffee and offers a comfy, compact spot for casual meals.

3. Selecting the Perfect Countertop:

Most of the homeowners in the MENA region especially in Lebanon are confused about what is suitable for the countertop is it marble? But Does it absorb liquids, especially coffee or is it quartz or ceramic?

The confusing more is that all this material are popular so what to choose? so Choosing the right countertop material can be tricky. Here's a breakdown of popular options to help you decide:

-Quartz Countertops: Known for their low maintenance and durability, quartz is a great choice for busy households.

-Marble Countertops: While undeniably classic and elegant, marble's porous nature makes it less ideal for kitchen countertops as it absorbs liquids. However, it can be a beautiful choice for cladding walls, coffee tables, or sideboards in other areas of your home.

-Granite Countertops: Like marble, granite is a natural stone known for its elegance and dark color options. Its easy-to-clean surface makes it a popular pick for kitchen countertops

-Porcelain Countertops: Offering a wide variety of colors and patterns, porcelain countertops are another durable option to consider.

4-Backsplash:

A backsplash is an extension of your countertop. we recommend installing it as high as the wall between the wooden cabinets. The purpose of any kitchen backsplash is to prevent water, grease, and other messes from damaging your walls, particularly behind stoves and sinks.

When designing and assorting things in the kitchen, don't forget to ask your designer about the feel you want in choosing the lighting because there are numerous differences between the feel you'll get when you install a warm light or daylight or any other preference.
