1. Start with what will stay

List the doors, cabinets, paint or flooring already chosen. Use these as the starting point for a small group of stone samples.

2. Compare the samples together

Look at the samples in daylight and under the room lights. A strong stone pattern can work beside quieter surfaces.

Decide which surface you want people to notice first. Every surface does not need a strong pattern.

3. Check daily use too

Once you like the colours, ask about the actual stone, finish and cleaning. A good colour match still needs the right material and installation.

Take this with you

Match the colours, then check the finish and daily use.

General educational guidance. Discuss the actual material, finish and installation with a suitable supplier or installer for your project.
