Home beautification has never been easier than with carmel stone. Not only is it long lasting and durable, but it adds an element of charm and elegance. It will assist homeowners in creating a long lasting designer masterpiece, no matter the project. Stone is very versatile and can create a type of design experience few other things can.

Many different options and styles are available depending on the project. Homeowners will find options ranging from Phoenician, Jerusalem stones, to Italy's timeworn slabs. All offer durable qualities, and add to the elegance and charm of homes. In addition, shiny surfaces, such as marble and limestone exist for installing counter-tops.

Think about the project, room, or overall theme or mood being created before purchasing. If it should resemble a particular theme, such as Mediterranean themes for bathrooms or saunas, its probably a good idea to look at several magazines or style guides, which can be easily found on the Internet, and think about not only color but design. This is particularly important if this will be a complete redesign, where floor, sinks, counter-tops, and walls will all be disassembled and reinstalled.

Browsing several examples will help to pick out styles and colors. Getting the advice of a good designer might also help to understand what can be achieved based on budget allotted for project. This will help to know what styles or even colors may be too expensive, and personal tastes will help to determine design options.

After doing some initial browsing on the Internet visit some local stores. Ask to see their concept boards. This might be a perfect time to get the interior designer involved, to advise what works best in the design space. Visit a few stores to get an idea of what is available.

For those engaging in the challenging project of an outside deck, extending from a sliding or back door for several feet, several carmel stone options exist. For instance the time worn travertine pavers would be a good choice with its beige, tan and brown hues. Others might want to choose the pampeano Argentine Dolomite slabs, or the Jerusalem gold tumbled. For other outside walkways choose the Ancara brown travertine pavers.

Those designing inside floors, bathrooms and other walkways, Jerusalem pebbled beach or Jerusalem grey works well. For kitchens Mt. Carmel's softly compliment almost any design. Argentine pampeano dolomite is also a good choice, especially for those whose intentions are to create classic elegance.

Decorative stone walls might include a light colored travertine, with a timeworn look. Try ocean side glass mosaics with this type. Timeworn dore royal is also a good carmel stone choice, as is Jerusalem Moroccan ragged edge. Saunas might benefit from Jerusalem stone style.

Those installing kitchen backboards might enjoy the Jerusalem grey gold. Those installing in bathrooms might consider white marble, and mosaics. Granite would also be a nice touch for sink counter-tops.

Fireplaces add a touch of classic elegance to any room. Building a fireplace with Jerusalem pebble beach or Jerusalem grey gold results in a warm and classic look to any room. No matter what project or design, with its many options and styles, offers the perfect design opportunity to anyone. Rather rustic or elegant, graceful or warm, carmel stone, with its many options offers consumers a design experience they won't forget.
