In world that seems to be obsessed with faster, better, more. I find myself craving slower, quieter and less. Less hustle, more presence. Choosing longevity and depth over quick and easy. As is so often the case, my yearnings in life are filtering into design. Choosing work that honors craft, classic materials and timeless style. Nothing embodies this more to me than marble.

What is new is the turn towards bolder slabs of marble. Colour, dramatic veining and cracked expressions seem to be popping up everywhere and are the basis of my current design crush: bold marble. A bold piece of marble is the perfect way to add drama to space and yet maintain a timeless feel. I’m sharing some of favourite uses of bold marbles below.
