From natural stone to porcelain granite surfaces - a comprehensive look at durability, maintenance, and design for the modern kitchen.
The kitchen is the heart of the home, and the materials you choose need to withstand tough daily use alongside a luxurious look.
Natural Stone
Marble offers a unique, luxurious look with no two slabs alike, but it's relatively porous and needs periodic sealing to prevent staining from oil, wine, and acids.
Porcelain Granite
Porcelain surfaces resist scratches, heat, and stains almost completely, and now come in patterns that convincingly mimic marble - a great combination of aesthetics and low maintenance.
Quartz (Engineered Stone)
Quartz offers high durability and uniform color, suiting kitchens that want a combination of luxury and simple, long-lasting maintenance.

Thanks for the clear explanation of porcelain granite, I had no idea it could look so close to natural marble.
We were really torn between marble and quartz and this article helped us decide. Ended up going with quartz for the low maintenance.
