Tell me about the stone

Lagos Gold limestone is a gorgeous creamy beige color, with a subtle golden undertone. It has a pale stony mottled effect that gives the tile its classic natural stone charm. There may be evidence of tiny fossilized plant and animal matter throughout the surface of the stone which have been captured during its formation process.

The stone itself originates from Southern Portugal, with a color palette that looks as if it's been toasted by the Mediterranean sun. It has a stunning neutral color palette that will look at home in a variety of designs and locations throughout the home.

Limestone is created by layers of material building up over a period of thousands of years. Changing temperature and pressure conditions cause these minerals to cement together, forming a hardened rock. It is a durable stone that has been used for creating long-lasting tiles for generations. It is suitably hardwearing, and therefore it is appropriate for use in even the most high-traffic locations.

Lagos Gold limestone has a pale tonality; therefore, you may wish to protect it with a stone sealant to prevent unnecessary stains. This is likely to increase the lifespan of your stone, making it a great investment for your property.

Tell me about the tile's finish

If you're looking for a balance between refined style and practicality, a honed finish is ideal. It has a matte surface which is created by grinding the stone down until it becomes totally level, with no bumps or ridges. The dull surface softens the light in a room, making it feel homely and warm.

A honed surface has slightly more traction than some of the other options on the market. This makes it a practical flooring tile as it will not feel slippery underfoot. It's also great in terms of durability. A honed finish is low maintenance and doesn't require regular polishing to keep it looking its best. The surface is innately dull, and therefore heavy traffic will not leave the stone looking unnaturally lackluster in certain areas. This is perfect if you have a busy lifestyle and require a stone that will fit in with your needs.

What overall look will I achieve?

Lagos Gold limestone has a neutral color palette, making it a highly desirable stone. It has great design potential and can be matched with a variety of styles. Create a serene bathroom environment by using it as a warm and inviting tiled floor. Continue their application up the wall, creating a bathroom backsplash or shower that will add a touch of luxury to the design. Incorporate a white bathroom suite into the room and with finish touches of creamy candles and towels, you'll have a calm and tranquil design you'll never want to leave.

Alternatively, add them to your kitchen or entrance hall for a cozy, homely feel. Incorporate dark wooden furniture and a large mirror to add texture and depth to your design.
