This post goes to any soapstone addicted ( like me i think ). I found this house built with an incredible stone wall. Using my imagination and of course photoshop, I added soapstone on the wall and the result is beautifull.

Soapstone Design Ideas – Bathroom Part 11

Sometimes when you are in doubt about where or when you could use soapstone, you take a chance to do a design mistake. You already heard that old sentence : Less is more. So, this applies over here.

If you have a small bathroom or you cant aford a soapstone bathtub , you may like this tip. Take only a small soapstobe slab and use as bathtub deck/platoform. This bathroom layout will increase the white color from any detail, like this amazing acrilic bathtub from Calyx, and will put your bath in another style level. I love it.

There are fireplaces which work on a special fuel and allow to admire the beauty of real fire without any smoke or smell. One of the most interesting models are portable fireplaces. They are quite compact so you could put them in any place in the house. These models can be done with soapstone. Below you could see some modern outdoor fireplaces which could perfectly decorate any garden.

Countertops, flooring, cookware, bricks, tiles, soapstone can appear in any situation like one of these. Another use that I really like it is the” work area “. Its a small slab, like 2400 cm2 , which you can work with all ingredients that you might need. In this example I got this picture from GeD cucine , a fantastic italian company, and I added the element that I am talking.

If you are thinking in import some soapstone slabs, from our exclusive quarry or just need more information, send an email to us.
