Textured stone: A timeless design element for your kitchen

Piedra Natural Texturas

March 20, 2024

KUALIA.design Textured stone is an incredibly versatile material that can transform any kitchen into a space full of personality and style. Its textures, natural patterns and irregular reliefs add depth, character and a sophisticated touch to any environment. If you are looking for a differentiating element to elevate the design of your kitchen , here we tell you how textured stone can be your ally.

Walls that come to life: One of the most impactful ways to use textured stone is as a wall covering. An entire wall clad in stone, whether in neutral tones or colorful hues, becomes a stunning focal point.
An island with prominence: Do you want an island that stands out? Textured stone can be the perfect protagonist. Choose to cover the entire island with this material, or just the front part for a striking effect.
Textured Backsplashes: For a more subtle but no less effective touch, incorporate textured stone as a backsplash. Its natural relief makes it an attractive option and also easy to clean.
Frames and architectural details: Elevate the design by incorporating textured stone to frame windows, highlight arches or create decorative niches. These subtle architectural details add depth and sophistication.

Types of textured stone:

Natural stone: Marble, granite, slate, quartzite... there are multiple options, each with its uniqueness and range of colors. Natural stones are durable, but their costs vary.
Stone effect porcelain tiles: An excellent alternative to obtain the look of natural stone with cheaper options. Porcelain tiles very realistically imitate the aesthetics and textures of stone varieties.
Manufactured stone coverings: These products created with mixtures of resins and ground stone offer resistance and ease of installation, ideal for DIY projects.

Cosentino , a global Spanish family business, offers a variety of innovative surfaces, some with interesting textures that would qualify as textured stone .
