Bookmatching occurs when the veining and movement of an individual slab is mirrored in another slab. Meaning when placed end to end, the veining and movement carries on from one slab to the other creating a continuing flow or pattern. The process of Bookmatching occurs during manufacturing when alternating sides of the slab are polished. It adds cost and time to the finishing process and not all natural stone is suitable for bookmatching.
Natural stones with strong movement and veining are best suited for book-matching. Many varieties of marble, quartzite and travertine have the right characteristics befitting a booknatched installation.
When considering your overall interior design, it is important to carefully consider the type of bookmatching: veincut vs crosscut. Typically, bookmatched slabs manufactured crosscut offer the most dramatic and varied patterns where bookmatchedveincut slabs offer a more structured and striated patterning.
Whether you are incorporating a waterfall detail into your kitchen design, cladding your shower wall or creating a stunning focal point for your interior design, bookmatched slabs add a dramatic element to any project.

MARBLES
Marble is a metamorphic rock that forms when limestone is subjected to the heat and pressure of metamorphism. It is composed primarily of the mineral calcite (CaCO3 ) and usually contains other minerals, such as clay minerals, micas, quartz, pyrite, iron oxides, and graphite. Under the conditions of metamorphism, the calcite in the limestone recrystallizes to form a rock that is a mass of interlocking calcite crystals. A related rock, dolomitic marble, is produced when dolostone is subjected to heat and pressure.Marble is coming back in the interior design world. Many people picture it as a cold stone which is far from sleek and modern. However, the latest trends in marble design prove that this is not true. The key to keeping the interior fresh is in moderation. Adding small doses of it as accents and statement pieces will not overwhelm the eye, but will create a modern and good looking room decor. Marble is an excellent option both for interior floors or walls. There are marble floor designs which fit any interior style. The floors look formal and are a great way to add luxury feel to a dining space or master bedroom. It can also be used on the backsplash in the kitchen or on a chair rail in the living room.
A good character is the best tombstone. Those who loved you and were helped by you will remember you when forget-me-nots have withered. Carve your name on hearts, not on marble.
