Marble or porcelain stoneware?
Marble is a solid and majestic material that can embellish any room. Despite its many qualities, it is not easy to include it as a cladding inside a house. It is a very decorative element, suitable for artistic works, but it does not optimize a heavily used space that is subjected to frequent external pressures.

A kitchen with a marble floor or a bathroom tiled with this material is surely a delight to look at, but smoke, heat, scratches, liquids, moisture, and cleaning products could easily damage the surface.
For this reason, interior designers are increasingly choosing marble-look porcelain stoneware to create refined and durable settings.
