With its elegant veining and organic form, marble can have a transformative effect on a space, be it a living room, kitchen, bathroom or outdoor area. Designers are increasingly turning to marble-effect stone to get the high-end look of marble without the maintenance — and for more versatile applications. Take a look at the following six spaces that use marble-look porcelain with stunning results. From single slabs used as accent walls to luxurious, spa-like home bathrooms and elegant kitchen counters and backsplashes, these porcelain surfaces take design to new heights.
1. Elegance in the Kitchen
Natural marble brings undeniable luxury to a kitchen, but it’s not always the most practical option. It’s costly, tricky to install and, being porous, requires regular sealing to maintain it. Marble-look porcelain, which gives you the look of natural stone for less and with none of the maintenance issues, is an appealing alternative.
Italian manufacturer Infinity Surfaces is a leader in this field, with a collection of 19 marble-look porcelain finishes that range from classic white with subtle gray veining to warm neutrals to bold black with intricate veining. “Infinity porcelain surfaces are the perfect marriage of aesthetic and functionality,” says Moses Oh of California-based Pacifica Wholesale Tile & Stone, an authorized distributor of Infinity Surfaces. “Expertly crafted, they capture the essence and nuances of their natural counterparts while providing excellent durability, longevity and the ability to withstand even the severest of elements.”

Marble-look porcelain is extremely versatile as well. You can use the panels throughout a kitchen — from countertops and backsplashes to cabinetry and floors. The panels come in a wide range of sizes, including extra-wide slabs of up to 63¾ by 127½ inches, so you can easily achieve a sleek, joint-free finish. You can even boost this seamless look further by specifying a porcelain sink in a matching color.
In this kitchen, Infinity Surfaces’ Classic Statuario porcelain panels have been used on the island and cabinet doors to create a striking yet easy-to-live-with aesthetic. “This is our most classic and versatile marble, and it creates a very natural look,” the company says. The marble-look panels on some of the cabinets have been bookmatched — two mirror-image slabs installed side by side — for added impact.

2. A Striking Feature Wall
An accent wall is a great way to add texture and interest in a room. Lightweight and versatile porcelain panels allow you to bring the look of natural stone into any space, whether it’s a bedroom, kitchen, bathroom or living area — with none of the installation hassles that come with natural stone.
In this bedroom of an exclusive home in Irvine, the rich brown and subtle white veining of Infinity Surfaces’ Pietra Grey porcelain panels across a single wall bring warmth and a sense of coziness, and pair beautifully with the room’s wood cabinetry.
