Designer Notes:

My clients moved to the area from Washington. They wanted a countertop that looked like marble, but they also wanted one that was more durable and easier to maintain. I knew that quartz was what they were searching for and when I showed them Calacatta Classic, they instantly fell in love with it. The biggest design challenge was the size of the kitchen island. Because they had a very large island, we needed to use two slabs with a seam in it. It was a challenge for our fabricators to perfectly line up the pronounced veins, but with our top of the line technology and experience, they were able to flawlessly join the slabs together. This precision allowed the veining to flow together and appear to be one slab- the seam was undetectable! They were thrilled with the look and feel that they wanted in the countertops, as well as the beautiful new cabinets with clean lines.
