Project Vision: Sculptural Elegance Meets Function
The Venetian House is a modern architectural gem located in a serene and upscale neighborhood. The homeowners, known for their refined taste, approached us seeking a unique centerpiece that would tie together the aesthetic of their foyer: a Custom Carrara Marble Console that reflected their identity, design sensibility, and appreciation for craftsmanship.
They envisioned a piece that would be sleek yet bold, traditional in material yet modern in form. The result was a finely balanced console table, featuring hand-polished Carrara marble and polished brass inserts, designed to make an impression while maintaining functional simplicity.
Crafting the Console: Material and Detail
We selected Carrara marble for its soft veining and timeless appeal, an ideal material for those seeking luxury marble furniture that stands the test of time. The slab was precision cut, polished, and sealed to ensure maximum durability while highlighting its natural beauty.
Key design elements included:
Carrara marble slab: finished with a semi-gloss polish for subtle light reflection
Polished brass inserts: adding structure and visual rhythm
Inset fumed eucalyptus millwork: enhancing warmth and contrast
Each aspect of the console table was crafted by artisans using both traditional techniques and modern fabrication technologies to achieve flawless results.
Results: A Modern Icon of Luxury
The Custom Carrara Marble Console now greets visitors at the Venetian House entryway with quiet confidence. It bridges classic Italian stonework with contemporary design sensibilities, making it a favorite spot for displaying curated decor, florals, or art pieces.
Not only is it a beautiful focal point, but it also serves as a lasting investment. According to a 2023 survey by the National Association of Home Builders, custom stonework and designer furniture can increase a luxury home’s resale value by up to 10%, especially when tied to recognizable craftsmanship.
Recent data from Houzz’s 2022 design trends study also revealed that over 67% of homeowners prioritize natural stone and custom-built furniture for key areas like entryways and living rooms, further validating the appeal of marble furnishings. With rising demand for timeless pieces that double as functional art, this project reflects how thoughtful design can offer both aesthetic and financial returns.
