1969 – Solid-Colored Laminate
Bold colors were pretty popular in 1960s kitchens, which is a huge difference with the marble and tile counters seen in 21st century kitchens. Another staple of the late 1960s and early 1970s was solid-colored laminate counters that came in white, gray, blue, yellow or green. Some kitchens also had a mesh of wood paneling with bricks that were the same color as laminate counters.
