First things first. When choosing marble, we must first look at the color scheme and style of the pattern that will match or match the design we want. Having a plan first will help to see what kind of mood and tone we want in this zone of our house. Easier design saves time It will also convey our identity and personality.

Normally, white marble and black marble are marbles that can be used in almost any style of home, because they are basic colors, so they can be applied to a variety of styles of homes, or other colors of stone such as cream, brown, gray can be applied to a variety of styles, but there will be stones with unique colors or patterns that are highly exotic, such as Van Gogh Onyx marble, Rosso Luana marble, Lemurian granite, Avocado quartzite, etc. that can be adapted to some styles of homes. 

Therefore, the author has given examples of the style of the house that can match each type of stone and examples of each style of house that has marble applied to the decoration of the house.

  • For minimalist homes, it is recommended to have stones with not very flashy patterns or natural tones, such as Travertine stone, which is a stone with not very flashy patterns and warm colors. This makes it easy to fit into minimalist homes. White stones with few patterns, such as Carrara, Volakas or Statuariari, add a touch of flair to the house. It is recommended to have a pattern that is not very strong so that the house still looks simple. Minimalist style exists.

  • For a contemporary style house (Contemporary), it is recommended to be marble with a pattern that is not flashy until it happens, but in terms of color scheme, it depends on the preference of the homeowner or designer to set the color scheme. There are many to choose from Siam Tak or strange colored stones such as orange. Blue, Brown Pink Siam Tak is also available.

2. Know the stone installation point

Once we have Rafe, what style do we want? Another thing to take into account is the installation site, what type of stone is suitable. In a nutshell,

  • Marble will be suitable for interior work that is not very heavy.
  • Granite is suitable for both interior and exterior installation, but if installed outside, it must be handled correctly.
  • Quartzide stone will suit both interior and exterior installations, but it is the same as granite. If it is to be installed outside, it must be managed correctly.

I have already written a detailed article about the difference between each type of stone (marble, granite, quartzite) that is suitable for installation. Let's try to read it.

3. You have to see the real rocks at the shop.

Only after we begin to know what kind of needs we have and what kind of stone is suitable for our work. The next step is to come to the marble showroom to choose and compare which stones fit our design. I recommend taking a look at the actual stones at the stone shops. Recommended as a shop Siamtak (Let me sneak in) because there are so many stones to choose from. It has everything including marble, granite, quartzite, artificial stone, tiles and mosaic jigsaw. In addition, the service is also complete, from cutting, grinding, drilling and delivery to installation, it is considered to come to one place, so you do not have to hire anywhere else to make it redundant.

4. The color of the stone may change depending on the current environment.

One thing to keep in mind when looking at the stones that will be used in our work is the lighting in the showroom or inside the warehouse. The color of the stone may vary depending on the light at the time. For example, each rock zone may look yellow because of the sunlight coming in, or it may come to see the rocks in the evening. The sunlight shining in yellow or in some zones may appear so dark that the beauty of the stone may not be clearly visible. Maybe take out the stone and take a closer look. If we're really interested in that rock,

5. Find the stone with the least cracks

What to watch when choosing a stone is a crack. The stone has the potential to be broken during delivery. It's best to choose a stone with the least number of cracks. The recommended way to look for cracks is to rub your nails on the stone face to see if you have tripped. If rubbed and stumbled, there may be a slight crack, but we should ask a specialist again if it is a crack or a natural mineral strand of the rock itself.

Application of stone in various ways to our marble houses

In addition to marble can be used as a material for home decoration such as walls, floors, countertops, islands, table tops, stairs, bathrooms, and can also be used to make other furniture such as sinks, desks, coasters, trays, cutting boards, vases, chairs.

It can be made into whatever it is that depends on the reader's imagination. Especially bringing the rest for some people who have bought a slab lift, it can be called that the stone is really worth every part.

This will complete both the process of buying the stone that best suits our own design and applying the stone in various ways.

At Siam Tak, we have many stones to choose from ourselves and have seen the real stones that will be used at our site. I would definitely not be disappointed. We also have a one-stop service called complete in one place, from stone selection to custom and installation in various forms. "We want to see every beautiful house with Siam Tak stone."
