––– For this premium home, designed by Simone Robeson, Marvell Tile and Stone brought Spanish limestone from Bernini to life through incredible craftsmanship. The process began at the front alfresco, anchored with a full tile, then extended through entry, hallways, ensuites, and out to the pool’s edge — always finishing on a full tile. Careful planning ensured interior grout lines aligned with exterior joints, creating a perfectly continuous pattern. "We prepared a detailed layout, and Marvell Tile and Stone double-checked everything ensuring it was installed perfectly, which is vital for a project like this," says Robeson. Attention to detail carried through to the pool, where the limestone capping was sandblasted for a subtle texture and laid with exact alignment to surrounding stone. The runner-bond pattern across the terrace was executed with precision, each junction refined to perfection.
