JTS sheds some light on the
latest trends in seamless surfaces
Samsung Staron Solid surfaces are one of the few surfaces that transcend all aspects of design, be it for residential or commercial applications. You see it in the traditional countertops, but a new wave of applications, designs and patterns are on the increase as many home owners and designers are beginning to see the surface for all of its value.
The products versatility, the fact that it is available in over 80 colours and its thermoforming capabilities which allows the material to be bent and shaped into a variety of forms from chunky islands, tub decks and door or window frames to cool reception desks, furniture, cabinets and wall cladding, means that the design potential is unlimited.. Yes, really the only limitation to what is achievable is the imagination of the designer or home owner!
The hottest kitchen design trends for the year are definitely streamlined surfaces, integrated appliances and big, chunky countertops and islands! The idea is clean, smooth and seamless. Practicality is also becoming more and more of a deciding factor.
Integrating your sink and backsplashes with your countertops is a way of streamlining your surfaces for that uninterrupted, sleek, top-end-designer-like finish. This is not only aesthetically pleasing to the eye, but the absence of joints and grouting eliminates dirt traps and promotes hygiene.
With open plan designs becoming more and more popular, a well-designed island is essential for entertaining. You can choose to fit with a sink, hob or chopping boards so that you can entertain and still be part of the party! A bench top overhang with worktops returning to the ground look particularly smart.
Staron seamless surfaces are also making their mark in bathroom design. Not only can one incorporate the sink with the vanity countertop, but sleek cabinet doors and integrated wall cladding can be built from the same material. Entire bathtubs and tub decks can also be custom designed and built using Staron. Free standing bathtubs are particularly striking and double up as an interesting feature in the centre of your bathroom.
Window and door frames are the latest application of Staron we have seen on the island. Whether they are designed to conceal roll up blinds or just as to compliment your design, these frames provide the perfect smooth finish to your rooms.
Staron® Surfaces - known to be engineered to perfection, is a division of worldwide technology leader Samsung. Staron® is a 100% acrylic solid surface material which is a durable, stain-resistant, hygienic, and easy-to-clean surface giving it 100 marks in the practical test! Staron® is a non-porous material, so it resists bacteria, mould, and moisture from penetrating the surface. It is also the most forgiving countertop material on the market. Since the colour and pattern is uniform throughout the product, scratches, chips and stains can be sanded out and the surface “renewed” - reconditioned and restored - to its original finish. With Staron, you can cook, spill, clean, wash, …actually live in your space without worry!
