Living room spaces seldom employ stone effectively. As such, using it can create a focal point within the room that is difficult to achieve with other materials.
Global Stone are experts in the design, fashioning and installation of stone in three particular areas of the living room.
- Fireplaces
- Flooring
- Wall Coverings
We use the highest quality materias and craftsmanship to ensure that your use of stone in your living room is fashionable and durable well into the future.
Fireplaces
Stone fireplaces ad their surrounds suit both period and contemporary architecture incredibly well. Highlighting the fireplace as a feature can easily be achieved by using colours and textures that contrast with the flooring materials, like black slate, honed grey basalt and brown limestone.
Decide early whether you’re hoping to draw the eye to the fireplace by selecting a colour and texture scheme that contrasts. Alternatively, your can make the floor the main feature and create a seamless look with the fire surrounding.
Flooring
Stone flooring is destined to last a long time. Remember that this means you’ll need to select a pattern and texture that you won’t personally tire of too quickly.
Classic looks for the living room space include the “chequerboard effect” which is well-known for populating Victorian houses or Georgian-styles in Vancouver.
Stone works brilliantly when matched alongside wood. Natural flooring and rugs shown in modern approaches, blend different materials and textures. If you want to use stone outside as well as inside, think about using the same type throughout.
Wall Coverings
Manufactured stone decorative panels can transform an ordinary room into an exceptionally unique space. The aesthetic richness of Manufactured stone wall works brilliantly with the natural light in the remainder of an open concept room. Manufactured stone can particularly highlight decorative panels around your flat screen TV.
As a general rule, it’s usually good to cover a fairly plain wall with Manufactured stone. This means one without doors or windows that may break up the flow of the decorative panels.
Alcoves can provide great contrast to the stone wall panels. The textured of the wall covering will act as a beautiful backdrop for your photography, for your flat screen TV and for your fireplace, showing attention to your chosen design wall panels.
