16 Kitchens that prove stainless steel can go way beyond appliances

It’s time to break your tunnel vision when it comes to stainless steel. It’s not just for appliances anymore.

Countertops

You would think stainless steel countertops would look cold and clinical, but when paired with warm woods, they actually look a bit homey. Plus, they’re easy to clean and super durable — everything you’ve ever wanted in a countertop.

You can also pair these counters with white cabinets, giving you a crisp and clean look for your room.

There’s no need to go extreme with all of your countertops. Just do a section in stainless steel to update your look, yet keep that comfy look you love.
