How to Cover the Kitchen? Ideas, Colors, and Materials That Suit You

Interior design is moving increasingly toward an approach that not only focuses on aesthetics but also embraces emotional, sensory, and sustainable aspects. The new challenge is to create spaces that reflect who we are and how we live.

Choosing the kitchen covering is one of the most complex steps during a renovation or redesign of the home. Why? The kitchen has become a familiar, multifunctional environment where we spend much of our time at home. Comfort, beauty, and functionality are the key elements on which every project should be based.

When deciding how to cover your kitchen, it’s essential to carefully evaluate the materials, which must make the space practical to maintain, as well as the style, to create a welcoming and familiar atmosphere. Finally, harmoniously combining colors, surfaces, and textures is essential for continuity and consistency in design.

Among the most popular solutions, porcelain stoneware stands out for its ability to combine the charm of natural surfaces with top-level technical performance.

Why choose porcelain stoneware in the kitchen

Production innovations have made thin porcelain stoneware tiles and slabs available—an advanced solution that amplifies the advantages of this material.

Here’s why to choose it:

• Installation without demolition: it can be applied over existing surfaces, avoiding dust, debris, long timelines, and extra costs.
• Hygienic: wide surfaces and rectified edges minimize joints, making cleaning easier.
• Eco-friendly: recyclable, long-lasting, and produced with low environmental impact. No demolition means fewer construction wastes.

In short, porcelain stoneware slabs are a functional, sustainable, and elegant choice for anyone who wants a durable and design-oriented kitchen covering.

The advantages of porcelain stoneware

Covering your kitchen with porcelain stoneware means relying on a material that guarantees:

• Resistance and durability: it withstands impact, stains, scratches, and thermal shocks.
• Hygiene and practicality: waterproof and non-porous, easy to clean, and safe for food contact.
• Aesthetic versatility: available in marble, stone, concrete effects, or with contemporary textured finishes.
• Customization: from small formats to large slabs, adaptable to any project—from floors to walls to kitchen countertops.
• Living comfort: compatible with underfloor heating.

Colors and textures to cover the kitchen

Porcelain stoneware offers endless customization possibilities. Some of the most appreciated solutions:

• Marble effect: elegant and bright, perfect for a sophisticated kitchen; like our Calacatta Top.

  Thanks to different formats, colors, and textures, porcelain stoneware can cover not only floors and walls but also countertops, kitchen islands, and backsplashes, ensuring a consistent and visually striking result.

Ideas and practical tips for covering the kitchen

To achieve the best results with porcelain stoneware:

• Choose finishes based on where the slabs will be installed, to better hide fingerprints or streaks.
