Wilsonart did not disappoint and "Brought IT", so to speak, to KBIS this year.  They are creating surfaces that meld with the current modern design trend along with some spectacular realistic natural elements.  When it comes to your home you want products that will be durable, sustainable and timeless.  This is exactly what I saw during my visit to the Wilsonart Booth at KBIS this year as part of the Modenus BlogTourKBIS Design Hounds.

Wilsonart Ultra Matte Laminate Finish

The smooth texture and soft touch of Wilsonart’s new Ultra Matte Finish provides an on-trend low-sheen option for stone looks that rivals natural materials. The new finish will premiere on six of the new Wilsonart Laminate designs, also being unveiled at the show. Visit www.wilsonart.com/finish-options for more info on the variety Wilsonart has to offer.
Wilsonart® Laminate
Sticks and stones inspire the timeless beauty of the 24 new laminate patterns. Twenty stone designs, like Cote d’Azur and Marmo Bianco, feature veining and fracturing for a luxurious style while four woodgrain patterns, like Antique Bourbon Pine and Planked Texas Walnut, add a feeling of familiarity and warmth. Visit www.wilsonart.com/laminate for samples this May.

Wilsonart® Quartz
The eight new quartz patterns range widely in design from extra-large veining and movement to smoother styles in medium to fine/small particulates. All maintain a trend-forward neutral palette of white, grey and black allowing them to be mixed and layered with other quartz, as well as solid surface and laminate designs. This “material mixology” lends texture and richness to a space that’s perfectly coordinated and beautifully designed. Visit www.wilsonart.com/quartz
Wilsonart® Solid Surface
Carrara marble looks, linear movement and translucency in shades of white and grey dominate the eight new solid surface designs for a timeless, clean and pure look. As white and grey continue to be the neutrals of choice, these additions also coordinate with one another to create looks that range from demure to daring.

Wilsonart® VDL Artfully Repurposed Woods
Sometimes, you want something just a little different. That’s Wilsonart’s Virtual Design Library. From gently weathered to intricate marquetry, the 23 patterns in the “Artfully Repurposed Woods” collection tell a story of America’s spirited history while honoring sustainability. Marquetry, the art of applying decorative inlays to a structure to create elaborate designs, emphasizes the importance of reusing and recycling materials. The clean, geometric lines of these designs contrast with the weathered woodgrains for a collection that adds a touch of modern comfort to any space.
