This Green House

These are photos of our new custom concrete counter tops in our showroom. I LOVE them!! They are 80% recycled content. They were custom crafted by “Alpha Stone” out of Turners Falls Massachusetts. Dan Gobillot and his right hand man Bobby Turk, are true concrete artists and craftsmen. More of their work can be seen at www.alphastoneconcrete.com.  The finish is hard to appreciate in photos so come in and see them live! It has many surprises as they hand grind used bottle and other stuff up themselves for the aggregate mix and replace some of the cement content with fly ash. The fly ash gives the mostly charcoal finish a slight green tint. As an added bit of detail they added brass shavings from a friend who works in a machine shop. After curing the finish is then ground and sealed. It is a very beautiful and subtle finish.  It reminds me of something that was mined from a lava flow under the ocean. Very cool!
