Tile it/Slab it/Slate it:
Marble is such an entity that it is found all over the planet in different colors, textures and sizes. From the greek classic pentalic marble or America’s white and blue Etowah marble, there are an estimated 129 color combinations to choose from. Depending on your wall design, you can choose the marble that will go on your floor. It doesn’t stop with colors alone. From big irregular chunks to precisely cut and polished ones, you can tile it according to your own unique design. Besides marble, granite is another beautiful natural stone that only falls behind diamonds and sapphires in rigidness.
The Grand Canyon Interior:
Your house should not be just piles of natural stone like a game of thrones castle, it should give the image of creativity and style.

The magic is not in the use of the stone but in finding the right color combinations that will go together. Done right, sandstone exterior gives your house and ancient yet edgy look that will make eyes shift left and right when you host a party inside your home.
