The Interior Design Impact of Large Format Porcelain Slabs
Designers are falling in love with the aesthetic and material prowess of porcelain slabs. From kitchens to living rooms, hallways and bathrooms, porcelain slabs infuse today’s interiors with sleek seamlessness, thanks to their large format sizes, various thicknesses (6mm, 12mm and 20mm) and impressive range of modern styles. Let’s break down porcelain’s transformative strengths:
Install them anywhere: porcelain design versatility
Porcelain slabs can be installed virtually anywhere in the home – immediately adding aesthetic allure to spaces of all sizes.
For starters, using large format porcelain tile slabs for interior flooring creates a surface full of seamless serenity, as minimal grout lines facilitate an expansive wall-to-wall aura. Large-format porcelain slabs are ideal for ‘total look’ homes looking to create a central theme that unifies all interior spaces.
If your customers are looking to add sophistication, incorporating porcelain wall cladding to living rooms, bathrooms and bedrooms is a wonderful solution. Porcelain cladding is highly versatile, and can be used to create beautiful statement walls, bold fireplace surrounds, textured kitchen backsplashes, and easy-to-clean bathroom and shower walls. If homeowners want to make an impressive impact on guests, installing porcelain slabs in the entryway is definitely an idea worth exploring.
Porcelains slabs are a natural fit for kitchen and bathroom countertops. Their incredible durability is perfect for high-velocity kitchens, and their wide selection of designs gives you the flexibility to integrate them into just about any color scheme.
When visual meets tactile: On porcelain design beauty
When it comes to design, porcelain slabs can be what you want them to be. They can recreate the unrefined beauty of natural stone, adopt a concrete-like industrial look, and even mimic wood and metal with jaw-dropping results.
At Caesarstone, we offer a range of porcelain slabs for flooring and cladding that depart from the ordinary and enter a new realm of design possibilities. Our collection includes exciting recreations of natural stone ruggedness, including onyx, travertine and sandstone. Reinterpretations of leather and wood surfaces push the envelope even further, pulling designers into a vast playground of unique design options.
Texture has also become a porcelain slab feature that significantly impacts design. Porcelain is a bedrock for tactile exploration, and our innovative technology has paved the way for textures that introduce surface roughness and bring a natural element into the home. Pleasing to the touch, our porcelain slab textures enrich homes with an additional layer of luxury and sophistication.
Durable and then some: On porcelain design practicality
You don’t need us to tell you that home design needs to be practical, and that beauty without durability is a lopsided affair.
Very few slabs can compete with porcelain in terms of durability. Its scratch, stain and impact resistance make it ideal for flooring and countertops, and its non-porous nature fits in seamlessly in kitchen and bathroom environments. If you’re designing a sunlit interior, don’t be cautious about porcelain flooring or cladding, as they are UV resistant and are often installed in outdoor kitchens.
In summary, porcelain slab strength can be reassuring to your homeowner customers managing high-energy households with children and frequent guests. Easy to clean and requiring very low maintenance, porcelain slabs are the epitome of design practicality.
