当下最火热的石材风潮 | 大理石的魅力

Marble has been enjoying a moment in the high-design and fashion spotlight for a little while now. Designers across the globe have been busy reinventing the way they are using marble to cater to todays audience – from architecture, interiors, furniture, lighting, art, homewares, clothing to styling. This is not at all surprising, given that nothing is quite as impressive or speaks of sophistication and luxury as eloquently as marble.

Here are some of my favourite examples that embrace and channel this precious natural material so beautifully. I’ve split this post in two parts  – Part 01 (this post) deals with pieces that employ marble as a singular or a dominant material – some are exquisite, others completely weird and kitsch, but all rather fabulous. Part 02 looks at examples where marble is juxtaposed with other colours or materials for a more contemporary edge.
