From Kitchen to Courtyard: Unleashing Sintered Stone’s Design Potential

In the world of design, materials matter. Neolith’s sintered stone stands out as a game-changer, offering innovative and sustainable surfaces in an extensive nature-inspired palette that elevates spaces, sparks creativity, and expands design horizons.

 

Its seamless integration throughout the home, both indoors and out, ensures a cohesive blend of aesthetic beauty and practical utility. Meanwhile, precision cutting facilitates intricate designs, maximising offcut usage and minimising waste, enhancing its eco-friendly reputation, all while fostering artistic expression.

 

 

 

Modern Kitchens

 

In the heart of the home, Neolith’s sintered stone unveils limitless design possibilities with exceptional resistance to heat, moisture, stains, and scratches. Its low porosity ensures it is suitable for direct food contact, offering a waterproof and resistant to liquids surface while guaranteeing effortless cleaning.

 

These qualities pave the way for avant-garde kitchen designs, extending to countertops, islands, waterfall edges, and sinks. Exemplified in the Christchurch family residence by Lume Design, Neolith’s award-winning Calacatta transforms the kitchen into a haven of contemporary sophistication.

 

 

 

 

 

Spa-Like Bathrooms

 

Bathrooms are transformed into spa-like sanctuaries with Neolith’s sintered stone. Its non-porous nature facilitates hygiene and makes it ideal for walls, floors, shower trays, and vanities. Large-format panels minimise grout lines, creating a luxurious and homogeneous appearance.

 

As seen in the Christchurch project, Neolith’s Calacatta extends to its bathroom space, creating a sense of continuity and fostering relaxation and well-being with its cultivated presence.

 

 

 

 

 

Refined Flooring and Walls

 

Sintered stone cladding sets a new standard in elegance with exceptional colour consistency and enduring durability. Its minimal thickness facilitates installation over existing surfaces reducing debris, while diverse designs and finishes free the imagination and enable combinations of any kind.

 

The result is a refined, cohesive look that transitions seamlessly from one surface to another, enhancing the flow between rooms.

 

 

 

 

 

Bespoke Features and Furniture

 

Beyond its visual appeal, sintered stone excels since it is produced in large slabs which can be cut into size according to each project’s needs, making it shine equally in finer architectural elements and bespoke furniture. A striking example is the feature staircase in the Christchurch project, crafted from Neolith’s Calatorao - a visually captivating model with a fossilised chocolate brown background adorned with elegant white and gold veins.

 

 

 

 

Another is the grand living room’s modern fireplace in Calacatta, flaunting sintered stone’s minimalist lines and resistance to high temperatures, further highlighting its remarkable versatility.

 

 

 

 

 

Outdoor Areas and Facades

 

Reimagining building facades and outdoor spaces, sintered stone extends its design capabilities to walls, gates, swimming pools, and BBQ areas. For ventilated facades, it ensures structural stability, thermal regulation and acoustic insulation. Moreover, its high resistance to temperature fluctuations, water, abrasion, fire, and UV rays offers minimal maintenance and design flexibility.

 

The Christchurch project showcases these credentials amid its inspired outdoor spaces, from dividing feature walls to raised garden beds.
