Marble is elegant, timeless, and statement making. Options seem endless, and finding the perfect way to weave this classic stone into your interiors can be overwhelming. Gone are the days of only using marble for statues and floor-to-ceiling lobbies. Today, marble has made its way back into modern design, but with a fresh take. Luxurious fun, designing with marble is an escape into decadence for a bespoke creation.
Picture it, your next renovation or new build. You know what you want. You need the perfect black or white stone that makes people stop and stare upon entering your space. The textures and veining compel passersby to get close enough to grab the perfect backdrop for a photo. But where to start? With a world of natural stone out there, accessing it all would require traveling to countless destinations domestic and abroad. What if that vast catalog of internationally quarried stones came to you?

The versatility of Venture’s luxury marble offering can be seen in a wide array of projects, ranging from luxury townhomes and condos, to residential spaces, hotels and more.
The simplest way to add a sophisticated touch to projects is the addition of natural stone, and marble is crème de la crème of nature’s bounty. Currently in a design Renaissance, marble has been around for centuries. But unlike historical uses which trend toward extravagant, today’s designers maintain a fresh and modern aesthetic – one that doesn’t overwhelm the eye. The Stone Collection facilitates this process for architects, designers, and builders in a way that focuses heavily on the needs of our customers. Susan D. Harris, Director of Store Design for Dillards Store Services, Inc. swears that the accessibility Venture provides is a key ingredient to managing the design of nearly 300 stores. “We’ve been doing business with Venture since their inception,” said Susan. “Their customer service and how hard they look for products when we need something are just two of the reasons we’ve stayed with them.”
Draw design inspiration from these projects that utilize marble from The Stone Collection by Venture Stone & Tile:
The New and Trendy Box
For the tastemaker, the New and Trendy Box features (L-R) Cristallo, Calacatta Oliva,
Nestos, North Star, Blue Silk, Paris Grey, London Grey, and Verias Green.
The “Nestos” stone, available in the New and Trendy box, has subtle bands of beige and cream. The light and clean look works equally well in a luxury waterfront condo as it does placed over a home hearth. Clean lines and dark accent chairs make this classically cozy room modern, yet still inviting. A marble hearth is statement-making, statuesque, and sophisticated – all the trademarks of natural stone.
The Classic Box
The Bianco Carrara Stone that adorns this vanity top at 261 Hudson in New York pairs with Black Absolute trim for a classic black and white marble motif. A one-stop design boutique, the complimentary basketweave, also in Bianco Carrara with Black Absolute accents, was sourced by Venture. A timeless New York look, Bianco Carrara’s delicate gray veining emits a luxurious vibe that will remain an eye-catching look for years to come.
