Brennan + Company Architects The product is 3Form (www.3-form.com) with a custom integrated color. It was fabricated and installed by a local contractor.

Sustainable Home Also there are many lines by conventional manufacturers that have recycled content, Eco, as mentioned above, but many of their colors are not to everyone's taste, as they contain recycled mirror. You really have to like that glitter. The Dupont Terra line all have at least 28% recycled content, and I have used Flax in a kitchen, and loved it. It is manufactured in Canada, which might mean that it has a lower Carbon footprint than some of the other materials. Ceasar stone is made in Israel, and Contantino is made in Spain. http://www2.dupont.com/Surfaces/en_US/products/zodiaq/zodiaq_terra_collection.html

The quartz based countertops that use a polymer between the grains of quartz or glass need less sealing and are less fragile than the concrete based countertops. Durability, and not needing chemical cleaners and sealers, also are good green qualities in a countertop.

Have fun with your project.

Vetrazzo It will depend on the layout of your project, location and where you are located. For Vetrazzo we typically see $100 - $150. However ... we do do 1/2 slabs that are 108" x 30" and are the perfect size for bathroom vanities and outdoor BBQ & pool areas.
