1. Material Selection
Begin with the intended application, expected traffic, edge details and maintenance profile. The best material choice balances movement, finish, durability and availability.
| Stone Type | Used For | Key Benefits | Durability |
|---|---|---|---|
| Marble | Interiors and walls | Refined movement | Medium |
| Granite | Commercial surfaces | High strength | High |
| Quartzite | Feature counters | Distinctive veining | High |
2. Finishes And Textures
Finish changes both appearance and performance. Polished finishes increase reflection, while honed and leathered finishes can create a quieter, tactile expression.
