7 Ways To Use Calacatta Marble
Nothing beats Calacatta Marble when it comes to stunning, rich materials for your kitchen, bathroom, and general home remodeling. This timeless material has adorned structures for hundreds, if not thousands, of years. The most well-known examples are the classic Greek and Roman architecture and sculptures still standing today. However, there are many different types of distinctive Calacatta marble available today, as well as countless applications for this majestic stone in your house.
Here, at Avant Stone, we have seven exquisite types. Providing a relatively neutral tone when paired with a white background, these varieties are ideal for highlighting or downplaying architectural details in your project space. Coupled with light or dark wood, Calacatta Marble slab stands out and provides a surreal feel to the room.
Here are seven ways you can incorporate this gorgeous stone in your home:
1. Calacatta Kitchen Island
While total marble counter makeovers are a terrific way to incorporate a lot of marble, a smaller surface area sometimes creates more contrast and effect. Kitchen islands made of marble stand out from the rest of the room and make a statement in their own right. Our Calacatta Viola or Calacatta Verde is ideal stones to grab the viewer’s eye.
2. Calacatta Accent Piece/ Feature Wall
The use of natural stone is to cover a wall entirely or add patterns to it, which distinguishes them from one another. It provides the space a clean and fresh appearance. Depending on the type of slab used, the marble walls create a cool or warm feeling for the eyes. When it comes to establishing a cooler or warm atmosphere, color selections are crucial. Our Calacatta Corchia is perfect for a cooler atmosphere, but for a warm atmosphere, our Calacatta Vagli, with its warm veining, would suit better.
3. Calacatta Benchtops
The kitchen countertop, maybe one of the most obvious uses for stone, is one of the best opportunities to show off your passion for this traditional material. According to Houzz, an interior design company, granite is losing popularity as a kitchen counter material, with sales down over 10 percent between 2016 and 2018. While many people opt for quartz as a substitute, marble countertops may add a classic yet contemporary touch to any kitchen. Our Calacatta Bella or Calacatta Statuario is quintessential for a flawless kitchen interior.
4. Calacatta Bathroom Details
Marble tile floors and marble walls are a classic choice to give your bathroom a trendy yet timeless vibe. They also allow you to show off the stone’s unique texture far better than smaller tiles. For a unique design, go for a dramatic marbling pattern or a more delicate variation for a relaxing spa retreat. Marble bathrooms are chic right now, so your bathroom renovation will last for years. Our Calacatta Oro is a well-suited stone, fit to give your bathroom a stately tone.
5. Calacatta Kitchen Backsplash
A marble backsplash can give a striking contrast to a plain, rustic aesthetic for your counters – perhaps a dark, solid granite. Use tiles for a more industrial design or a full, solid marble backsplash to show distinctive patterns. Our Calacatta Viola or Calacatta Verde are stones with vibrant, intricate patterns, perfect for a backsplash application.
6. Calacatta Flooring
Usually used in high-visibility settings because of its beauty and uniqueness, marble flooring elicits accolades and admiration from all who gaze upon it. High-end corporate offices and medical practices, such as cosmetic surgery facilities, frequently employ Calacatta Marble flooring in their entryways or reception rooms. In addition, you can use marble throughout the house or utilize it to draw attention to specific areas such as the entrance, pooja room, or even the kitchen. Our Calacatta Bella or Calacatta Oro are fabulous choices for floor applications due to their mellow patterning.
7. Calacatta Pillars
For thousands of years, marble has been utilized in abundant designs, also being used in Mesopotamian societies. One of the most important reasons that marble has been used for so long is the construction of columns. Load-bearing and decorative objectives are both served by marble columns. Calacatta Marble pillars will enhance the natural beauty of your property. Our Calacatta Bella will suit the application due to its soft and shaded patterning.
