Kota Blue is a famous limestone hailing from quarries in India. It is incredibly popular the world over for its beautiful blue-gray color palette. This creates a stunning contemporary design that is highly prized and incredibly versatile. The stone has a slightly mottled pattern, adding to its unique charm, but in general, it presents a gorgeously consistent color. This is a stone famed for its reliability, so rest assured with Kota Blue you'll be creating the look of your dreams.
Limestone is a durable material used for centuries to create stunning architecture. Most famously, it was used to create Rome's Colosseum which is still standing today. This is a testament to its ability to resist the elements.
In your home, limestone is ideal for flooring, even in high traffic areas. We recommend using a stone sealant to protect it from damage that may occur due to moisture penetration. Once this step has been completed, it is sufficiently resistant to stains, the ideal kitchen floor, and bathroom tile.
This tile has a honed finish, creating a gorgeously sleek and contemporary look. The honing process leaves the stone with a super-smooth matte texture - there are no bumps or ridges and no natural texture. This is ideal for those looking for a little more refinement in their design but still, want an understated look. The intentionally dull surface softens the light in the room, making it feel cozy and inviting despite its cool color tone.
A honed finish also comes with a number of practical benefits. In terms of functionality, it has superior traction compared to other sleek finishes. This means it is suitable for areas that are likely to become slippery when wet, such as bathrooms, porches, and entrance halls. It's also much more durable than a highly refined polish. It does not require regular maintenance to keep its intended design. In fact, wear and tear can actually complement the stone's effect, creating a beautifully aged antique effect, a highly desirable design element.
Kota Blue with a honed finish is a great look for those requiring a classic natural stone with a contemporary feel to it. It can create a stunning spa-inspired bathroom, just match it with clean-lined white walls, a bright bathroom suite, and a large circular mirror. Add quirky natural touches such a leafy potted plant, dark wooden furniture or accessories, and small concrete tealight holders to channel Scandinavian simplicity.
In your kitchen, team it with pale white cabinets and a sleek black counter for a minimalist look that is modern and timeless. For a touch of luxury, add gold metallic accents, or add an exotic soft furnishing to start building an eclectic style.
