Make way for stone: The chic trend in home design

One of the most prominent trends in home design is the use of stone. It brings a delicate balance of champagne, beige, cream, and natural stone tones, completely avoiding gray. This fresh palette introduces softness and warmth to interiors, maintaining a neutral look while adding a subtle and inviting twist, compared to the coolness often associated with gray.

Asher Shayo, CEO and lead designer of Nano Kitchens, explains: "The new color scheme is warm and pleasant, yet neutral, making it an excellent choice for blending into various spaces. I believe this trend will dominate public and kitchen spaces for a long time. A kitchen shouldn't follow short-lived trends but should be timeless, serving the family for many years. People are looking for shades that harmonize with the surrounding elements—the island, appliances, lighting, and of course, the living room and dining area. Stone tones meet these needs by creating a serene environment that’s also beautiful and stylish."

Gal Nardi, marketing VP at LAMINAM, adds: "Incorporating stone tones in home design is an excellent way to create a natural, warm, and inviting atmosphere. These shades connect us to nature and evoke a sense of calm."

She continues: "The connection to nature is becoming stronger. LAMINAM's new cladding collections, inspired by nature, act as artistic sculptures where nature takes center stage. These designs feature subtle reliefs with a 3D effect, combined with fine thread finishes that flow together, creating a deep and continuous link with nature."

"The new surfaces were developed under the guidance of our R&D department, which crafted inspiring solutions through delicate reliefs and innovative finishes, all echoing natural elements. I have no doubt that the series, designed for both indoor and outdoor spaces, complements the living space 360 degrees. It embraces the stone trend, which has taken the Israeli home design scene by storm," Nardi concludes.
