MAORI GRANITE KITCHEN, 4 WAYS
Granite countertops can be many things: artistic statement, form over function eclectic centerpiece, or accessory to coordinate with other elements in your home. Maori granite is a showstopper that demands all the attention. Here are four ways to see a Maori kitchen, using coordinating colors and materials. Maori can be coordinated with Hanstone Quartz, Opalescence, White Macaubus Quartzite, or use this stunning color for your entire project. Visit exquisitestone.com for more details about our custom stone layout process that helps to make your kitchen a statement.
The look of…St Paul
Posted by ExquisiteStone on June 1, 2014
Maintaining “the look” is very important to any remodeling project. Many projects in the St Paul, MN, neighborhood are attempting to revamp the original look of these older homes. Many have existing combinations of white subway tile, white cabinets, and white marble countertops. White Carrara marble is the traditional material that is found in many of these older homes, but the sensitive nature of this marble makes it impractical for some families. Quartz alternatives are a great option where marble may fall short. Caesarstone has a great “carrara-look” color that is a very realistic duplication of the classic marble. Quantra, Silestone and Hanstone also have some good options in a more economical price range. These quartz alternatives that strive to replicate the classic White Carrara look are gaining in popularity, and make creating turn of the century look easier and more user friendly.

As spring approaches, many of us begin to make plans for our yards and patios. Creating an outdoor kitchen space is one of the latest crazes in yard design. The durability of granite is the perfect pairing for an outdoor application. Whether the space is a full kitchen, a simple surround for a grill, or a table top, a granite surface will add a flair of sophistication and functionality.
