ms1zebra, Thanks for your comment and interest! River-rock finished aluminum is a great surface. Its unfinished textured top allows for increased durability for work surfaces. It is resilient with heat, stains, oxidation, but will show signs of use if heavy objects are dropped on or slid across it or cutting is done on it with steel knives. As mainly a lighting manufacturer, we do not heavily promote our tile choices, so we haven't made much of an impact on the tile market. Perhaps when folks think of aluminum as a material, they think about unfinished flat aluminum sheet, which is not a good or even available choice for kitchen surfaces. However, our tumbled finish and thick castings give durability and a great balance between a classic weathered and modern look. Best of all, our aluminum is 100% post consumer recycled, non-mined, locally sourced, made in the USA. We are a Benefit Corporation (B-Corp), triple bottom line company with pioneering experience in sustainable manufacturing. We hope you'll spread the word if you like our product.

Glass panels are the easiest to keep clean. You can have some with pattern and colour on the back of glass, so it doesn't look boring.

Yes, I would and did start with cabinets. Browse through he kitchen photos here on Houzz until you determine your favorite styles. Start a kitchen idea book and save every photo that has something you like, cabinets will be your biggest investment. Once you know your style, begin thinking about counter tops and backsplash. One or the other will be your "star." If you already have a favorite, try to coordinate other choices with it. For example, I found my backsplash first, then chose the counter to go with it. Often people have their counter in first then struggle to find a backsplash. If you fall in love with a beautiful, busy granite you will want a simple backsplash. My floor was last, keeping it simple to avoid clashing with other choices. Good luck and have fun! This can be an overwhelming project but your friends at Houzz can help!

Hi Maureen. I'd suggest getting an idea of what you like to do in the kitchen. i.e. Whether you love baking, cooking for big family social events or socialising over a glass or three etc etc. Then start thinking of the useful features you'd like to bear in mind - ie.. from above - would like a double oven with steam option, 5 hobs and plenty of prep space or a breakfast bar / island. That starts the process and then you can start looking at layouts, finishes, worktop and backsplash materials etc. As CK mentions - that's what a professional designer will run you through. Just see who's local to you and drop in / give them a call. Good luck! ;-)
