Why This Design Works

✅ Marble Look, Porcelain Durability – The realistic veining and texture of Laminam Porcelain mimics the beauty of natural marble while offering a heat-, stain-, and scratch-resistant surface.

✅ Mitered Edge for a Bold Statement – The seamless, thicker edge profile adds depth and luxury to both the island and perimeter.

✅ Mixed Cabinet Finishes for Depth – White perimeter cabinets contrast beautifully with warm wood islands, creating a layered, high-end look.

✅ Custom Metal Range Hood – The blackened steel hood with brass detailing anchors the space, complementing the mix of materials.

✅ Textured Herringbone Marble Backsplash – The high-variation veining adds movement, tying together the natural and industrial elements.

✅ Layered Metals for Sophistication – Brass hardware and lighting add warmth, while stainless steel appliances maintain a modern edge.

How to Recreate This Look

1️⃣ Mix Classic & Contemporary Surfaces – Use porcelain slabs like Laminam Pietra Grey & Calacatta Michelangelo to capture the luxury of marble without the upkeep.

2️⃣ Layer Materials for Depth – Combine painted cabinetry with natural wood tones for a rich, curated aesthetic.

3️⃣ Use Mixed Metals Thoughtfully – Pair brass hardware and lighting with stainless steel appliances and blackened steel accents for contrast and warmth.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Could not recommend them enough. We were about to call it quits on our kitchen counter replacement until a family member recommended we reached out to Nancy at granite and marble solutions. The first company basically told us to kick rocks and that we couldn’t get countertops without replacing our backsplash and easily doubled the quote of our project and what we were comfortable with. Nancy had so much patience with us and found us a counter that matched what we had found with the other company. The team was so professional and they didn’t even mess up the backsplash. Seriously, use them.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I went into six or seven marble places before finding Granite and Marble solutions, so take my word for it - go here first and you will save yourself a lot of time. I was lucky enough to work with Tene, and I can confidently say without her my shower would not have turned out as well as it did. She is so knowledgeable on both the stones/materials, as well as the design side of things, making great suggestions as I explained to her the vision for my bathroom reno. I had no clue what I was doing and she was beyond patient and kind through all my questioning and changes! Granite and Marble Solutions has access to such large inventory, and if you’re looking for smaller projects their remnants section is quite substantial. I will absolutely be using them for all future projects, and cannot recommend them enough!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We absolutely love the look of our updated kitchen.  Tene was fabulous to work with and her advice regarding my new countertop and backsplash was absolutely perfect. She communicated with us throughout the entire process and was such a pleasure to work with. I would 100% hire them again.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Even the small jobs are given the utmost attention and care. I needed a new top for my kitchen island and Brendan was so great. I told him I was on a budget, and that I wasn’t looking to fall in love, just keep the price down. He said, “let’s find something you love anyway” and off we went. I found a beautiful piece of quartz that I actually do love and he gave me a great deal on it because it was a remnant slab. He even gave us a military discount, which is awesome! It was great working with the whole team (design, measuring, install, etc). I can’t wait to do my countertops so that I can get back there and work with Brendan and the team again! Thanks for being so great and taking care of my Air Force family!
