Case Study: Translucent Onyx Countertops

Illuminated Onyx Countertops: A Striking Kitchen Remodel

In one of our recent kitchen remodels, we transformed a traditional space into a showstopper by installing translucent onyx countertops, dramatically backlit to highlight every detail. Our client wanted a kitchen that blended luxury and artistry—and onyx was the perfect choice.

What We Do

We sourced high-grade, honey-toned onyx slabs and designed custom countertops to fit the kitchen’s unique footprint. The natural veining and color variations in the onyx brought subtle patterns and depth to the surface, even before lighting. But the real magic happened after dark: we installed specialized LED panels beneath each slab, washing the countertops in a soft, glowing light. The result was a kitchen centerpiece that shifts in mood throughout the day, glowing warmly during gatherings or adding ambiance to an evening meal.

 

  • This project was all about balance—combining practical design with bold visual impact. The backlit onyx not only adds “wow” factor, but also functions as a durable work surface, finished for everyday use. Our client loves entertaining in their new kitchen, where the countertops serve as both a conversation starter and a dramatic backdrop for every occasion. This remodel proves how striking materials, thoughtfully used, can redefine a home.
