Classic blue adds a dramatic effect to this space complimenting the warm and natural brown tones of the floor and stair rail. Many people would shy away from such a bold choice, but as you can see it offers a warm welcome to this entry space. The geometric detail on the wall adds a modern, custom touch proving simple, yet dramatic features add personality and interest to any space.

Granite, Marble, or Quartz?

Which is best, you might ask? Granite, marble and quartz are all great options for kitchens, bathrooms, mud & laundry rooms, but it is good to know that most natural options like granite and marble are porous and require regular maintenance and care to maintain its natural beauty.

The luxury of quartz is that it offers a non-porous surface which makes it much more durable and offers less maintenance. Another feature we love about quartz is the many colors and patterns available. White granite and marble offer some really beautiful, natural patterns and veining, quartz offers similar natural patterns as well as more contemporary patterns with glass, metals and/or other stones.
