Design Ideas for Calacatta Nova

Use Calacatta Nova to anchor islands, long perimeter runs, and full‑height splashbacks where the grey veining can be appreciated. Pair with off‑white, stone, or pebble cabinetry for a serene scheme, or contrast with walnut, oak, graphite, or midnight blue for depth. Polished chrome and brushed nickel echo the cool grey veins; satin brass offers a warm accent in transitional spaces. Consider book‑matched splashbacks over the hob to mirror the vein, and mitred waterfall ends to carry the pattern seamlessly down island sides. Pencil‑round edges provide a family‑friendly profile; chamfered and mitred edges add tailored definition without visual heaviness.

Performance You Can Rely On

Calacatta Nova’s high quartz content supports abrasion resistance and low water absorption, helping manage stains from coffee, wine, and oils when wiped promptly. Factory‑controlled slab tolerances deliver consistent thickness and flatness for tight joints, accurate sink and hob cut‑outs, and straight overhangs. Because veining varies naturally between slabs, vein‑aware joint planning during templating keeps the pattern reading as continuous across seams for a cohesive, high‑end finish.

Care, Cleaning & Heat Guidance

Day‑to‑day care is simple: use warm water, a soft cloth, and a mild, pH‑neutral dish soap. For dried residues, apply a non‑abrasive, pH‑neutral cleaner with a non‑scratch pad. Protect against thermal shock by using trivets beneath hot pans and countertop appliances, and avoid placing slow cookers or portable induction hobs directly on the worktop. Do not use harsh alkaline cleaners, oven cleaners, paint strippers, or strong solvents that can damage the polished surface.

Sizing, Thicknesses & Detailing

Choose 20 mm for sleek, contemporary lines or 30 mm for a more substantial, classic edge. Mitred build‑ups can achieve a deeper visual on feature islands while keeping weight manageable. Finish with matching upstands or a full‑height Calacatta Nova splashback to create an easy‑clean, continuous surface. Specify integrated draining grooves at undermount sinks and discreet pop‑up sockets on islands to preserve the uninterrupted marble aesthetic.
