Unique and Luxurious Countertops


For the discerning homeowner, for the unique room, for a breathtaking approach to kitchen or bathroom design, glass is the leading edge, new trendy material for kitchen, bathroom or as a raised bar.

Glass countertops have a high-end appearance that distinguishes them from common countertop materials such as granite or synthetic surfaces.






You can customize glass by choosing a color, texture, and finish.










Here is an amazing way of using glass as a raised bar in a residential application.

















Countertops may never be the same again thanks to the innovative combination of art, nature and technology used to create the Concetto collection by Caesar Stone.

I would love to see this in a kitchen or bathroom that looks out at the ocean!

Its also worth mentioning that because of the heat, stain and scratch resistant composition this is very low maintenance. Who doesn't love that!










Embedded objects: Fossils, colored glass, metal flakes, semiprecious stones, and special mementoes are finding their way into custom-fabricated countertops, most often in counters that have even color tone throughout, like concrete, engineered stone, or solid surface. Once the objects are embedded, the surfaces are finely ground to reveal hints of the treasures within.

When using concrete you can customize the color and also you can create a sink that is all one with the countertop in any size or shape you desire. There are soooo many possibilities with concrete.






This is an interesting way of using concrete. I think the edge detail is unique.










Copper is increasingly finding a place in the kitchen. While it’s not mainstream, copper does have its appeal for those who enjoy having something unusual.

A positive of having a copper countertop besides it looking great is that it is antibacterial and easy clean up with soap and water.
