Selecting A Theme And Style Using Carmel Stone

By Andrea Davidson





Summer is the time of year to complete both outside and inside home beautification projects. There is nothing more elegant, durable and long lasting than carmel stone to assist homeowners in building projects. This might include pool decks, walkways, inside walls, fireplaces, kitchen counter-tops, and other magnificent home features. No matter what style homeowners have in mind stone adds to the look, protects and strengthens, and may add value and equity to the home.



Different types exist to help complete the various types of home projects. Everything from the Jerusalem stones of Israel to Phoenician, to the timeworn slabs of Italy offer elegance, charm, and durability. Shiny granite, marble, and limestone are also popular.



To begin, think about the project itself and how it will develop. Think about overall theme, and if the design will follow a preset trend, such as Mediterranean. If so, think about the different styles even within that theme, and take some time to look through magazines or surf the Internet for ideas.



Looking at several design and style guides, or getting the assistance of an interior designer might help to pick out not only elegance and mood, but also appropriately priced for individual budgets and reflecting personal tastes. This will also help with overall color schemes, and other design tools.



After doing some initial browsing on the Internet visit some local stores. Ask to see their concept boards. This might be a perfect time to get the interior designer involved, to advise what works best in the design space. Visit a few stores to get an idea of what is available.



If designing an outside space, and are planning to install outside slabs, such as to accompany decks or patios there are many choices to choose from. Time worn travertine pavers usually works well because of its light to medium brown colors that is adaptable to most outside color schemes. Pampeano Argentine Dolomite or Jerusalem gold are also very adaptable.



For inside floors, such as entry ways, walkways, bathrooms and other decorative flooring Jerusalem pebbled beach is a good choice, or Jerusalem Grey, with a herringbone pattern. Mt. Carmel is great for kitchens also. Other decorative floor patterns for elegant entertainment rooms include Argentine Pampeano dolomite, used as flagstone.



Those doing stone handwork on walls might consider timeworn light travertine, with ocean side glass mosaics, or timeworn dore royal, with panpeano Patagonia brick liner. Consumers might also consider Jerusalem Moroccan ragged edge, with grey and gold moldings. Jerusalem stone might also be appropriate for inside saunas.



Kitchen walls and the warmth of home might be complimented by Jerusalem grey gold. Walls throughout bathrooms, including inside showers and counter-tops might portray the perfect mood with white marble and mosaics. Granite is also lovely on counter-tops.



Jerusalem grey gold slabs are perfect for fireplaces, as is Jerusalem Pebble beach. No matter what style and design is chosen carmel stone offers the opportunity to create everything from rustic to elegant with some of the finest and most durable stones throughout the world.
