Durable Quartz Countertops in Natural Stone Looks

Every kitchen needs a durable work surface, and pretty much every homeowner wants it to be beautiful. The newest quartz countertops available from Wilsonart definitely serve the call! Quartz is extremely hard and non-porous, and that means it checks all the boxes—it's impact-, scratch-, and stain-resistant. It's very low-maintenance and outperforms natural stone across the board. So, if you yearn for veining, neutral shades, and authentic color variation, see the latest nature-inspired quartz alternatives! In light, dark, and medium-tone looks, you'll find slabs complementary to your design.

A Sleek Door with Convenient Internal Blinds

Doorlites help brighten your interior, but depending on your surroundings, they can leave you feeling exposed. Now, Therma-Tru's® EnLiten™ flush-glazed internal blinds allow you to take in natural light and close it off at will on Smooth-Star® doors. Perfect for around the whole exterior, these entries contain cordless blinds sandwiched between panes of tempered glass. With a gear-pulley operating system that opens, closes, raises, and lowers the blinds by moving a single tab up and down the side of the lite, this elegant solution is safe for kids and pets, and keeps dust off the blinds, too!

Garage Doors in a Tropical Louver Look

Finding the perfect garage door style can really tie together and define an exterior design, so we love to see more options come to market! Clopay® expanded their line of Canyon Ridge® faux wood garage doors again this year for something novel—shutter-style louver doors. The slats are molded at a fixed angle to keep the elements out, and the composite material won't rot, warp, or crack despite its wood looks. They suit everything from historical colonials, to sunny beach houses, to even mid-century modern homes!
