Friday Find - ImagenGlass by Jockimo

I've warmed up to glass counters as an alternative to other solid surface materials. As always each has their pros and cons, but glass allows for some things that some other materials just don't.

This is ImagenGlass from Jockimo. What they've done is taken their glass slabs and used a photographic coloring on PET foil and laminated it inside the sheet. The results are breathtaking.

Notice the texture and transparency... it looks real!

Permanent pieces like this are sometimes frowned upon(I blame realtors) but the effect is quite dramatic. Imagine seeing the island backlit at night!

There is something very whimsical about the fruit kitchen... notice the light fixtures even. Think about it... the options are limitless!

Now that you're here...

Hi- My name is Nick. I'm a second-generation cabinet guy that likes sweet tea, football and pastel oxford shirts.

While this is a blog and a blog about design, I don't consider myself a design blogger. I'm a designer with a blog. Actually, I just happen to have a few minutes here and there to share pretty things, attempt to prevent DIY nightmares and pass along tips and tricks for successful, pain-free new kitchen and bathroom installations and remodels.

It'll be fun.
