There are a lot of reasons that concrete is a popular choice for kitchen and bathroom counters. It lasts forever and can be colored in an almost unlimited variety of ways but there is something much more appealing from a designer's standpoint.

It's well known by now that concrete has become a material that homeowners and designers are requesting and weaving into their homes, offices, retail outlets, restaurants, etc., in the most amazing ways. But leading the charge in the concrete craze are concrete countertops.

Concrete countertops are a warm natural looking material that corresponds with the popularity of more natural materials like wood, stone, and brick. Chemical stains, coloring pigments, various aggregates, and epoxy coatings can give concrete the look, texture, and feel of quarried stone such as marble, granite, and limestone.

Concrete is not a static material. Handmade and tactile, it is influenced by its interaction with the craftsman and eventual user. For the many people who love concrete, the unpredictability is part of its attraction. Veining, texture and color vary, and regular use impacts a warm patina to the surface over time.

Architects, interior designers, homeowners and business professionals alike are turning to concrete for countertops when they want a quality, handcrafted piece for their home, office or commercial application that is unique, with colors and textures that can't be found with any other material, and which, with use, develops even more character and beauty.

Concrete counters allow the designer to create a completely unique counter. It can be cast in almost any shape and have other materials added to it for aesthetics as well as efficiency. For example, sea shells or fossils can be added to the wet concrete to create a natural look. Some people have used sea glass or even broken china.

On the efficiency side you can have raised strips of stainless steel to create a place to set pots and pans without it affecting your counters. Some designers have created a built in drainboard for cleaning sinks by molding ridges into the concrete. There are unlimited possibilities.

In addition to their versatility and distinctive beauty, concrete countertops have another virtue that appeals to many people, especially the ecologically aware: They are more environmentally friendly, or "greener," than most other types of countertops.
