Custom Solid Surface Kitchen Worktops are the surfaces that endure more daily stress than any other: heat, impact, moisture, stains from wine, oil and citrus. Choosing the right material is not merely an aesthetic decision, it is a functional choice that defines the quality of life in the kitchen for decades to come.
Crafted in Corian® or Krion®, Custom Solid Surface Kitchen Worktops represent today’s most advanced solution for those seeking a seamless, joint-free surface with no grout lines where bacteria and dirt can accumulate. Unlike marble, granite or laminate, Solid Surface is a non-porous material: liquids do not penetrate, stains leave no permanent marks, and the surface can be fully restored by light sanding if deep scratches occur.
From an aesthetic standpoint, Custom Solid Surface Kitchen Worktops offer a visual continuity impossible to achieve with other materials: the sink can be integrated directly into the worktop, eliminating the metal rim that traps dirt and creating a monolithic effect of remarkable visual impact. The available colour palette includes hundreds of tones, from pure whites and concrete greys to deep blacks and pastel shades, with matte, gloss or stone-effect finishes.
On the hygiene front, Solid Surface is food-contact certified and is the preferred choice in professional environments, restaurants, hotels, food laboratories, precisely because of its resistance to aggressive cleaning agents and its inability to harbour organic residues.
Every kitchen is a unique project. Dimensions vary, corners are rarely perfectly square, hobs and sinks must be positioned according to the room’s layout. This is why Custom Solid Surface Kitchen Worktops cannot be standardised: they must be designed and crafted to measure, millimetre by millimetre.
GP Design works closely with the client, architect or interior designer to define every detail before fabrication begins: the shape of the worktop (linear, L-shaped, U-shaped, with island), the edge thickness (from 12 mm to over 50 mm for bold architectural effects), the surface finish, the position and shape of the hob cut-outs, and the integration of the sink as a single seamless unit or with an invisible joint.
Custom Solid Surface Kitchen Worktops can be produced with curved profiles, thermoformed edges, integrated drainage channels, cantilevered shelves and any other architectural solution the project requires. No shape is impossible: the thermoformability of Solid Surface allows the material to be bent and shaped under heat, opening up design possibilities that marble or quartz simply cannot offer.
The colour is not a surface coating but runs through the entire thickness of the material: a scratch can be polished away without revealing a different colour underneath, and Custom Solid Surface Kitchen Worktops retain the same appearance as the first day for years to come.
GP Design was established in 1978 in Barbarano Mossano, in the heart of the Veneto region, as an artisan workshop specialising in the fabrication of high-performance materials. Over nearly five decades of activity we have produced Custom Solid Surface Kitchen Worktops for private residences, luxury villas, Michelin-starred restaurants, hotels and showrooms throughout North-East Italy.
Our workshop in Vicenza operates on a commission basis: every worktop is designed, cut, thermoformed and finished in-house by our team of specialist craftspeople. We do not use prefabricated components: fabrication is entirely hands-on, carried out with precision equipment and quality control at every stage of the process.
We work with Corian® by DuPont and Krion® by Porcelanosa, the two world-leading Solid Surface brands, guaranteeing clients certified original materials with full traceability. We offer a complete service: from initial consultation and site survey, through design and fabrication, to installation carried out by trusted fitters across the Veneto and throughout Italy.
