New Home Update: Our Marble Countertops Are Here!

I am beyond excited to share a major update on our home-building adventure. If you’ve been following along, you know that this project has been so fun but also filled with countless decisions. I want to talk about one of my favorite elements of our new home—the kinds of marble we chose throughout.

When we started planning our new home, we knew we wanted it to feel luxurious yet welcoming. Marble has always been a favorite of mine, and I wanted to incorporate it thoughtfully to elevate our spaces. The challenge was picking the perfect types that would not only look amazing but also suit the functionality of each room.

After a LOT of research and some fun trips to various marble suppliers, we finally settled on these gorgeous options:

My Office & Kitchen – African Calcutta

For my office and kitchen, I fell in love with African Calcutta. This marble is a showstopper with its creamy white background and bold, dramatic veining. It gives both spaces a classic, timeless feel while adding a touch of elegance. Plus, it’s incredibly versatile, working beautifully with both modern and traditional decor elements.

Bo’s Room – Shadow Storm

In Bo’s room, we decided on Shadow Storm. This marble has a softer, more ethereal look with its subtle gray veining set against a pristine white backdrop. It’s serene and calming, making it perfect for a space to relax. 

Morning Bar & Bunker – Midnight Marquina

For the Morning Bar and Bunker, Midnight Marquina was the obvious choice. This marble has a deep, rich black base with striking white veining that adds drama and sophistication. It’s perfect for those areas where we entertain guests and want to make a bold statement. The contrast is simply stunning and never fails to impress.

Why Marble?

You might be wondering why we chose marble for so many spaces. Here’s why:

  • Timeless Beauty: Marble has been admired for centuries for its natural beauty and elegance.
  • Durability: When properly cared for, marble can last a lifetime, making it a great investment.
  • Versatility: With so many varieties, there’s a marble to suit every style and taste.
  • Unique Patterns: Each slab of marble is unique, ensuring our home has one-of-a-kind character.

Building our new home has been a labor of love, and these marble choices bring both beauty and functionality to our spaces. Each type of marble was selected to enhance the unique character of the room it adorns, creating a cohesive yet varied aesthetic throughout the house.

Choosing the right materials for your home can be such an overwhelming process, but it’s also incredibly rewarding. I hope this glimpse into our marble choices inspires you in your own home updates.
