Quartz worktops have long symbolised elegance and luxury, and their beauty is truly unwavering. In 1963, Italian inventor Marcello Toncelli introduced the world to quartz, a sturdy and stylish material perfect for various surfaces. It became especially popular for crafting beautiful and durable kitchen countertops, and it’s undoubtedly a favourite material of our designers and customers here at Kitchen Design Centre!
Quartz countertops are made from around 90% ground quartz, as well as a mixture of resins and pigments. It’s known for its exceptional hardness, which means quartz stands out as a highly resilient option compared to other countertops. It also comes in various shades and hues, adding to its versatility. It’s these features that make quartz such a popular material for sculptures, flooring, and, of course, kitchen worktops!
The smooth and sleek texture and colour of quartz give it a timeless appeal that continues to be popular in today’s design trends. From classic to modern interiors and everything in between, quartz worktops are still highly sought-after, adding a touch of sophistication and luxury to any kitchen.
When it comes to quartz worktops, the first thing we have to talk about is their appearance. These worktops are not only functional but also incredibly beautiful, enabling quartz worktops to add a touch of elegance to any kitchen. Quartz has been around for thousands of years and is one of the most abundant materials on earth, having been cherished throughout history for its use in carvings and jewellery. This admiration for its sleek and stylish appearance has resulted in its adaptation for kitchen worktops.
Quartz is also an excellent surface for cooking and baking as well as being aesthetically appealing. Its naturally cool temperature makes it ideal for working with dough, whether that’s pizza, pie, or pastry, making quartz an ideal kitchen feature if you love to spend your time baking. The smooth coolness of the quartz surface allows for better control over your doughs and crusts, ensuring the perfect outcome on every bake.
Quartz adds a touch of classic charm and sophistication to your kitchen while being incredibly durable and long-lasting. Proper maintenance and care of your quartz worktops can ensure they remain in great condition for decades to come, ensuring you get more than your money’s worth!
Regular cleaning can help prevent stains and damage, and steering clear of harsh cleaning chemicals and abrasive materials can help maintain the surface’s natural glossy shine. With the right care, your quartz worktops can remain a statement piece in your kitchen for years.
And that’s just a brief overview of why our customers love quartz. This is by no means an exhaustive list; if anything, that’s just the tip of the iceberg – but we think you get the point!

A KITCHEN AND LIVING SPACE REIMAGINED FOR A RIBBLE VALLEY HOME
Paulo and Debbie first discovered Kitchen Design Centre back in 2013 when they created their dream kitchen—and they loved it so much that, years later, they returned once more.
This time, it was for a brand-new kitchen, utility room, games room and garage storage area as part of a major renovation to their family home.
Inspired by a stunning display in the Barrowford showroom, Paulo and Debbie teamed up with Barrowford Showroom Manager, Simon Thomas. With over 25 years of experience, Simon was the perfect person to take on their new brief—one that pushed boundaries and called for creativity in a limited space.
Debbie, inspired by Pinterest, envisioned a kitchen with rich walnut tones. Simon brought this to life with a sophisticated, contemporary design that cleverly created the feeling of a large island in a narrow room, proving that great design isn’t about space—it’s about smart solutions. He did this by linking the island to one wall to create the perfect cooking centre with all the focus in to the room.
“Simon was incredible. We loved the kitchen so much that we asked him to turn his attention to the majority of our downstairs. The whole area now has real wow factor—and it’s incredibly practical too. We couldn’t be happier with the result.”

A SLEEK, HIGH-END CONTEMPORARY KITCHEN FOR A MANCHESTER HOME
When renovating their Worsley home, Kim and Paul knew exactly who to trust with their dream kitchen — Kitchen Design Centre.
A Sleek, High-End Contemporary Kitchen for a Manchester Home
Having worked with them four years ago in their previous home, they were so thrilled with the result that choosing them again was an easy decision.
Visiting the Urmston showroom, they were immediately inspired by the stunning displays and enlisted designer Rowan Chick to create a sleek yet functional space. They envisioned a monochrome palette to complement the ultra-modern aesthetic of their new home — a striking contrast to their previous more traditional navy and taupe kitchen.
