Looking for a countertop that's worthy of your organic veggies? Old glass bottles glitter in Vetrazzo's granite-strength slabs. Recycled paper and petroleum-free resins form PaperStone's durable surfaces. And recycled aluminum puts the industrial chic in Alkemi's copper, gold, and blue counters. If earthy tones are more your style, EnviroMode offers a terrazzo surface (at right) made from old bathtubs, sinks, and toilets. --Maria Trombetta
