It will not matter, you don’t view countertops in person from above.

Thank you! Great point! That being the case, should we change the 36” countertop so that it runs side to side rather than front to back?

What if you rotate the island slab 180 degrees?

(this is a test)

Mark, 🤣🤣🤣. Seemed like you could!

It would bother me, a lot. But I'm very particular about that sort of thing.

I think that it all looks fine...pretty quartzite!

I am anxious to see what happens with my marble like granite, which is similar to yours in color and shape... Fantasy Brown or Ocean Beige. We have a large center island, A long spanse on the wall, and two flanking sections on either side...a U-shaped kitchen. We have 3 large slabs reserved.

It will look great.

Cannot tell from your description or photos whether the smaller pieces are counters or splashes. Will there be edge pieces or is this a single layer? 2 or 3sm? I would recommend you examine mitered vs laminated.

Jeffrey,

Thanks! The large piece is the island and the others are are the perimeter countertop. Quartzite will be 3 cm thick with no edge pieces and no backsplash. Tile backsplash will be selected after countertops are installed.

Nhb22, good luck with your kitchen!

if you have enough stone to run the 36" piece side-to-side, I think you'll be glad to have it look/feel like the others when you're standing at it.
