Interior Design with Natural Stone Tiles

Highly durable and organic, stone has always been a desired element in architecture and design. From centuries, stones like marble, limestone, quartzite, granite, and travertine have been a persistent choice for impressive and elegant structures throughout history. But lately, natural stone tiles have made their way into a lot of homes.

A major aspect to consider is how hard a natural stone is. This is important in determining how much traffic it can support and where it can be used. The harder the stone, the less likely it will be to scratch. Another factor is porosity, or how likely is the stone to soak up liquids. All natural stone tiles are porous and require a sealer to maintain their original look, tile sealers serve to protect and beautify your investment. Check out our Tile Care section for more information. This is important to keep in mind since more porous materials require a higher level of care when maintaining a protective barrier from liquids.
