Q. I currently have granite countertops in my kitchen, but want to mix different materials for my island. What surface(s) do you recommend?

A. When specifying different countertop materials in a kitchen wherein granite is installed on the perimeter, I love using a metal countertop on the island as a complete departure from stone. Depending on the overall design of the kitchen, you can use pewter, zinc, copper or brass for metal countertops. By using specialized details, your designer can work with artists to develop your ideas from a design vision to a finished product that is truly special to you. We have actually established relationships with true metal artisans who can help homeowners pick the best products.
