Did you catch Halfway Wholistic’s Lake House Kitchen Reveal?

We hope so! Let’s dive into the details of this beautiful project. Selecting stone can be one of the most exciting—and sometimes complicated—parts of the building or renovation process for homeowners. Katie Staples of Halfway Wholistic recently revealed her stunning lake house kitchen featuring Taj Mahal ɫ��ֱ��ite from ɫ��ֱ�� Surfaces.

Katie shared why she chose Taj Mahal ɫ��ֱ��ite in a leathered finish:
“Honestly, we couldn’t be more pleased with them. They are SO stunning. Everything from the color to the texture and durability is exactly what we were looking for! Not to mention, ɫ��ֱ�� Surfaces provides such a wonderful customer service experience. Their products, process, and customer service are nothing short of perfection.”

To break it down simply: high-end homes and designers often select marble for kitchen designs, while many homeowners choose quartz or quartzite for their blend of beauty, durability, and value. Katie chose quartzite for three key reasons:

• It’s a middle-of-the-road option in price—less than marble but more than quartz.
• It’s a natural stone with impressive durability.
• The warmth of the Taj Mahal hue paired perfectly with a leathered finish for texture and depth.

Quick Tip: Understanding Stone Finishes

When choosing stone for your home, finish plays a major role in its look and feel. Here are the three main types:

• Polished: Smooth and shiny, enhancing the stone’s color and veining.
• Honed: Matte and soft to the touch, ideal for a subtle, natural appearance.
• Leathered: Textured with a slight sheen, offering warmth and tactile interest.
