Natural stone tiles and surfaces are a great way to add color, texture and high-end finishes to any room in your home and even the exterior living spaces. Too often, homeowners forget about the uses for natural stone tile and surfaces throughout the home and think of it only for the kitchen and bathroom floors. Check out our team’s top 5 favorite ways to incorporate natural stone into your home.
1. Kitchen—
This may be the most popular place for natural stone surfaces in the home. Countertops and backsplashes made of engineered stone, granite, limestone, marble, recycled glass, semi-precious stone and soapstone are often found in the kitchen. Natural stone in the kitchen allows homeowners to choose a countertop and backsplash that complements their style and design aesthetic.
2. Bathroom—
Bathrooms are a great place to add natural stone tiles and surfaces—not only are they clean but they also make spaces feel more sophisticated and inviting. Natural stone can be used on vanity tops, tub surrounds and shower tiles to make a statement in a commonly forgettable room. Choosing the right type of natural stone for your bathroom project can help the surface to withstand the test of time and frequent use.
3. Living Room—
Fireplaces are often considered the heart of the home and serve as a focal point in interior design. One of the best ways to make your fireplace into a statement piece is to add natural stone to the hearth and exterior of the fireplace. This design feature can add sophistication and class to this living room gathering place.
4. Floors—
Natural stone tiles can be found throughout homes and in entryways. They are durable and easy to clean and care for. The variety of natural stone tile types, shapes and colors allow homeowners to customize their home interiors with tile that matches their home décor.
5. Outdoor Living—
Outdoor living spaces are perfect for natural stone surfaces. Typically, natural stone can be used for cooking areas, food preparation surfaces, bar and dining spaces and for outdoor fireplaces. Using natural stone is a great way to make your outdoor living spaces function, unique and inviting. It also helps to make your outdoor space feel like a continuation of your home interiors.
