On August 26, 2026, Cambria unveiled four new quartz designs, all of which are now available to Orlando homeowners who want the best in quartz countertops for their home. So if you have been wondering what the latest in Cambria quartz designs is in Orlando, here are the actual looks and tips on how to tell the difference between Quintessa, Merivale, St. Loxley, and Wyncrest.
Cambria’s August 2026 Release
The four new designs are all based on the same theme. According to Cambria’s own press release, the designs are inspired by the beauty and movement of the natural world, reflecting what homeowners have been seeking most in recent years: more organic movement, more depth, and more texture than the flatter and more uniform quartz patterns of the past.
This is part of a larger trend in kitchen design that is currently taking place in 2026. The industry is moving from cooler grays to warmer, earthier colors, and Cambria’s new offering is right on trend.
Quintessa
Quintessa features a creamy, medium white backdrop with delicate veining of sable color. It is a more subdued pattern, more like a soft natural stone than a showy pattern. It works well in kitchens where you would like to add texture, but do not want the surface to be the main attraction.
Merivale
Merivale’s warm white background features organic veining of gold. The veining is not so overstated as to make it a dramatic line, but is deliberately subtle and layered to create a sense of depth. It looks great with brass or gold hardware, and with warmer wood tones.
St. Loxley
In contrast, using a coastal palette of soft browns, neutral greens, hazy grays and sandy whites, St. Loxley heads in a new direction, with a palette that slides across the surface like waves. It is the most patterned of the four and can be used as a kitchen island focal point.
Wyncrest
Wyncrest’s ivory and alabaster hues are enhanced by champagne colored veins, created using Cambria’s proprietary alloy technology. This is a real manufacturing distinction, not a marketing description. The metallic quality in the champagne veining comes from an alloy process that cannot be reproduced with a simple pigment.
Why These Designs Fit Orlando Homes
Newer homes in Orlando tend to have open concept kitchens with large island runs, often built around engineered slabs such as quartz, which offer a consistent pattern from end to end that can be harder to guarantee with natural stone. The warm hues across all four of these designs fit the trend Orlando homeowners are currently following, moving away from the cooler gray palette that dominated kitchen design for the past several years.
How to Choose Among the Four
- Opt for quiet and restrained: Quintessa will not clash with other design details
- Choose Merivale to add a metallic touch and warmth to the room
- If you are looking for the focal point of the countertop itself, select St. Loxley
- For the most luxurious and metallic veining of the four, pick Wyncrest
These comparisons matter more in person than for most quartz comparisons, since the depth and movement in each design does not always translate to a photo. Stone Spirit’s Cambria countertop showroom in Orlando has all four available for side by side comparison.
