Marmomacc is the essential worldwide event of natural stone industry. Having a history of 50 years (celebrated this year), the Fair is hosted in Verona, Italy, during September 30 – October 3 and features a special area called "The Italian Stone Theatre" imagined as a tribute to Italian tradition in natural stone processing: new technology and innovative products, meant as an inspiration for architects and designers.

When choosing a material for a decoration project you have more things to consider besides price, such as durability and hardness, appearance and quality. Here are the main features of natural stone that might interest you and why marble, granite, travertine or slate are more efficient (and beautiful) investments for your design project, against ceramic tiles.

The new decoration project for PIATRAONLINE showroom involved 120 people working for 6 months and over 4 000 sqm of natural stone. This new showroom features 1 000 sqm of expo area and over 100 concept spaces, featuring 1 500 natural stone products.

Whether it's marble, travertine, slate or granite, a hallway decorated with natural stone becomes a fantasy space. Being simultaneously elegant and cozy, such a hallway will never lose its charm. Here are some ideas you can put into practice:

Diana and Silviu fell in love with natural stone when they noticed the travertine decoration during a visit to one of their friends. Their two room apartment is at the top floor of a building in the Chiajna area (SW Bucharest).
