Why Mirror Polished Brass Countertops Are a 2025 Interior Trend

Mirror polished brass countertops are surging in popularity for luxury interiors. Designers are embracing brass for its unique ability to feel both contemporary and timeless. Unlike colder metals, polished brass reflects light warmly, creating welcoming spaces in offices, retail stores, and restaurants. It pairs beautifully with natural stone, dark timbers, and even minimalist concrete finishes, offering endless design possibilities — including brass splashbacks, brass kitchens, and bespoke countertops.

At Urban HQ, the gleaming brass countertops set the tone for a premium yet approachable atmosphere — a trend we expect to continue throughout 2025 and beyond. These types of custom installations are now a popular choice for bespoke reception counters and high-end commercial interiors.

“We love how mirror polished brass can transform a space instantly — creating a feeling of understated luxury.”
