From kitchen to courtyard: Unleashing sintered stone’s design potential

From kitchen to courtyard: Unleashing sintered stone’s design potential

Share

In the art of design, choice of materials is crucial. Material choice can make or break the look and feel of a space, and when chosen properly, can impact everything from aesthetics to durability and environmental impact. Neolith’s sintered stone raises the bar with its innovative and sustainable surfaces that spark creativity, elevate spaces and expand design horizons.

With the ability to seamlessly integrate indoor and outdoor environments, Neolith ensures a fusion of visual appeal with functional practicality. Its precision-cutting technology supports complex designs while optimising the use of offcuts to reduce waste, further boosting its eco-friendly credentials. Neolith sintered stone combines next-generation technology and high functionality to create one of the most environmentally friendly materials on the planet, advocating sustainable beauty in all its collections to inspire new architectural trends.

Kitchen: The heart of the home

No place in the home endures as much wear and tear as the kitchen. It’s where families convene, friends socialise and the daily necessities of life are carried out. To meet these strict demands, Neolith’s sintered stone offers limitless design possibilities with exceptional resistance to heat, moisture, stains and scratches. These features set the stage for dynamic designs across all aspects of the beating heart of the kitchen including countertops, islands, waterfall edges and sinks.

As exemplified in the Christchurch family residence by Lume Design, Neolith’s award-winning Calacatta transforms the kitchen into a retreat of modern elegance.

Refined walls and flooring vying for attention

Finely designed interiors must consider all surfaces, even those normally taken for granted. Quality walls and flooring lead us through the elements of a space while largely going unnoticed. With sintered stone cladding, a new benchmark of elegance and colour promotes continuity between spaces. Its slim profile allows for easy application over existing surfaces, and the variety of stone finishes sparks creativity, offering endless design possibilities.

Custom features take shape

Sintered stone is not only visually stunning, it also offers exceptional versatility. This makes it ideal for both refined architectural details and custom furniture. A prime example of this is the feature staircase in the Christchurch project, constructed from Neolith’s Calatorao. This eye-catching model boasts a rich chocolate brown base with sophisticated white and gold veining running through the steps, creating a striking effect as you ascend to an upper echelon of style. Another example of sintered stone’s versatility is the modern fireplace in the grand living room, featuring Calacatta with classic minimalist lines. Its resistance to high temperatures further underscores its remarkable adaptability.

Outdoor areas and facades

Sintered stone brings a new level of design versatility to facades and external areas with its use in walls, gates, swimming pools and barbecue spaces. It provides structural stability and thermal regulation for ventilated facades with a near-zero porosity that prevents mould and bacteria growth. Its resistance to temperature changes, water, abrasion, fire and UV rays ensures minimal maintenance and design flexibility.
