Thanks, we're going for clean Mid-Century Modern-ish. That style seems pretty timeless and we want it to fit a variety of tastes when it comes time to sell this place. This countertop is from a company called Cambria and it's quartz. It's so heavy. That little sample piece weights about five pounds.

I'm glad it's held your interest! I'm going to be away for a few days this coming week so it might be a while until the next installment. It'll depend on how much free time I have while I'm out of town because the laptop always comes with me when I travel. : ) I love the Dune Series! Have you read/watched the Foundation Series by Isaac Asimov? The series is on AppleTV and it's amazingly well done. It's probably my favorite of all. It's so rich with detail.
