When remodeling your kitchen with Centennial Construction & Remodeling Services, Inc., choosing the right countertop edges can significantly impact both the aesthetics and functionality of the space. The edge profile not only contributes to the visual appeal but also affects maintenance and safety. Here’s a guide to some popular edge styles and how to select the perfect one for your kitchen remodel.
The beveled edge is characterized by its sleek, angled cut along the top edge of the countertop. This style is often chosen for its modern, clean look that adds a touch of sophistication to any kitchen. A beveled edge is visually appealing and practical, as its angle helps prevent chipping. It pairs well with contemporary kitchen designs and is ideal for homeowners seeking a minimalist aesthetic.
The bullnose edge is a classic, rounded style with a soft, smooth finish. Its gentle curves make it a safe and attractive choice, especially in households with children. This edge style is versatile and complements both traditional and modern kitchens. A full bullnose offers a continuous curve that is easy to clean, while its half-bullnose variant provides a slightly different visual appeal by showcasing more of the countertop thickness.
The ogee edge provides an elegant, decorative touch for those who prefer a more ornate design. This profile features a graceful “S” shape, adding a sense of luxury and sophistication. The ogee edge is perfect for kitchens with classic or opulent themes, enhancing the overall richness of the space. However, due to its intricate design, which can accumulate dust and crumbs, it requires more upkeep.
The waterfall edge is a bold, contemporary choice where the countertop material extends vertically down the sides, creating a continuous flow. This style makes a striking statement and is often used in modern, open-concept kitchens. The waterfall edge highlights the beauty of the countertop material and provides added protection to the base cabinets. It’s an excellent choice for those looking to make a modern, dramatic impact.
