Last week we talked about the rising white marble trend. Marble is perhaps the most revered natural stone, but it’s far from the only one piquing the interest of luxury interior designers. Bringing an element of drama to high-end homes, stone has been dominating worktops, backsplashes and luxury baths for years. This season it’s bringing some unusual glamour to our living spaces. Elegant, timeless and ultra sophisticated, natural stone is delivering a new unique edge to our love of neutrals.
Stone furniture is versatile and environmentally friendly, with each piece breathing new life into a space with a completely individual colour, texture and tone. Stone statement pieces exude organic, natural and durable beauty.
Sculptural Elegance
Stone sculpting is one of the oldest forms of artistic expression. Monolithic statues, ancient writing and carved figures are early examples of stone sculpture. From these modest beginnings, the practice of stone carving and stone sculpture developed into one of the most important aspects of sculptural art.
Luxury interiors are the modern-day expression of artistic talent. Adding a sumptuous sculptural statement piece to your home is functional art rooted in tens of thousands of years of history.
A contemporary stone table is every inch a statement of eternal charm and organic elegance. The sleek expanse of the stone surface creates a show stopping talking piece, for those that have a love of contemporary design and fine detailing.
A Sophisticated Play in Neutrals
Neutrals are classic and timeless, the unique elegance of stone furniture elevates a contemporary space, to a high-end interior. Pairing a stone table centrepiece with sultry curved seating softens and relaxes a room retaining a contemporary and architectural design. Stunning curves create a stunning impact.
