Our kitchens have
evolved to become much more than areas where we simply cook and eat. As the
undisputed hub of the home, it is a place where families and friends get
together to chat over tea or coffee, plan holidays and nights out, among other
activities.
The homeliness of the
kitchen can be enriched further with the introduction of wood surfacing. Wood
has the advantage of looking good with almost any kitchen style and colour - be
it traditional or modern, light or dark.
The kitchen trends as
seen in Scandinavia are an excellent example of wood’s continued prominence and
appeal.
However, natural
timber and wood surfaces in the kitchen require quite a lot of maintenance and
care in order to remain in pristine condition. The Formica Prima woods range
does not require any treatments or oiling.
Formica's laminate
worktops are high quality prints that exquisitely capture the detail of each
wood species, ranging from traditional Oak and Walnut to exotic and colourful
Ebony and Zebrano.
Formica Prima Natural
Block Walnut is full of colour and character, with a detailed wood grain
pattern. It has a butcher block layout that provides a modern twist on a
classic wood. Rural Oak on the other hand, is a dark oak design featuring a
softly weathered classic feel, coloured with silver, grey and brown - a perfect
fit for contemporary kitchen interiors. Why not have the natural beauty of wood
in your kitchen, but ensuring it remains that way with our water and stain
resistant laminate worktops – now that’s hassle free surfacing.
Natural textures and
hues are growing in prominence in contemporary kitchen design. Luxurious greys,
cappuccino, olive, dove and stone grey along with white and cream can be mixed
and matched with timber, oak and rustic wood designs to modernise any kitchen
space.
Texture adds an extra
dimension to any surface. Partnering the right design and texture together
elevates the aesthetics of the surface and also the tactile experience for
those who touch it.
The Prima range offers
textures from super high gloss to weathered or brushed stone. Formica Group is
the only laminate manufacturer who designs and manufactures their own textures.
