Stone is also abundantly available in nature and, therefore, a sustainable choice &#8211; here are 5 ways you can create a timeless look at home.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Waterfall worktops and kitchen splashbacks<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re looking to create a showstopping kitchen design, waterfall countertops are currently in big demand. Essentially a worktop that flows down the side of your island for added effect, it provides a stunning space for you to eat, chat and relax. Resistant to thermal shock from hot pots and pans, granite and quartz are ideal for islands. If you\u2019re looking to remodel your kitchen, natural stone is a must and is becoming a popular choice over manmade options. Sand-coloured tones will create a down-to-earth feel, reminiscent of a beachy escape and perfect if your taste leans towards a more neutral palette. Alternatively, if you prefer dramatic colour, think deep green and black and stone finished with exquisite veining.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Natural stone can additionally be used for the walls as a kitchen splashback for a coherent and stylish finish. Energy-efficient, durable and elegant in form, there are many reasons natural stone is at home in the kitchen!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Natural stone infinity flooring<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Does your home open out to the garden? This design-savvy trick can blur the line between indoors and out. Using the same type of tiles for both indoor and outdoor floors will create an \u2018infinity\u2019 look and the illusion of never-ending space. Hardwearing and durable, natural stone is suitable for both interior and exterior applications. So when the same flooring is carried out to the garden, the result is seamless &#8211; just remember, exterior tiles should be anti-slip. Of course, natural stone flooring just isn\u2019t complete without warm and cosy underfloor heating. As a natural conductor of heat, stone tiles work well with this type of heating system.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Types of natural stone tiles commonly used for flooring include marble, granite, limestone and travertine. With their calming and earthy characteristics, all will create a stunning aesthetic, especially when you mix and match textures and shades.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shelves and storage<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Proper storage and shelving play a big part in the aesthetic value of a room. Without them, the space can feel cluttered and lack character &#8211; making good use of wall space will enhance your decor. Consider using natural stone for floating wall shelves to create a sense of openness that can\u2019t be achieved with closed cabinetry. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.archiproducts.com\/en\/products\/retegui\/marble-wall-shelf-egala-marble-wall-shelf_130262\" rel=\"nofollow \"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These marble wall shelves<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are not only a functional choice, but they\u2019re also easy to clean and provide a place to display decorative items.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stone cladding for dimension and depth<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The days of covering your walls with wallpaper are over; natural stone is the new way to go! Nowadays, homeowners are favouring interior cladding over traditional decorating for a result that stays as fresh as the day it was installed. Ideal for modern spaces, natural stone cladding will give rooms a fresh and intriguing appeal. Organic colours can also produce a relaxing effect, and so marble will be a great choice should you wish to create a spa-like bathroom sanctuary.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For long-term maintenance, it\u2019s also important to use a sealer to protect the surface from wear and tear. Most stone has a certain level of porosity, and so this step shouldn\u2019t be skipped if you wish to have cladding that lasts.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Natural stone home accessories<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Natural materials are exactly that, and no two pieces will ever be the same. So if you want to create an individual home that beautifully flows, opt for stone accessories that have a rustic charm. Think a distinctive wood-burning stove or dining table, masterfully crafted for the perfect ambient living space. Then there\u2019s the extras like soapstone vases and planters that expertly blend with outdoors &#8211; you can\u2019t go wrong with ornamental objects made from natural stone.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Give natural stone surfaces a little TLC with FILA<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eco-friendly and rugged, natural stone certainly has a raw charm to it.
