10 Ways to Introduce Marble Into Your Home

It's time to go marble mad! The iconic stone has made an unshakeable comeback, with now more ways than ever to bring marble into your home regardless of your budget or style.

Whether you want to add an element of industrial chic to your living room or a stroke of luxe to your Bohemian styled bedroom, here are 10 ways you can add marble into your home:

1.  Tables


Side, dining, coffee, console and accent tables, they all have one thing in common... they look impressive in marble!

Nothing beats the aesthetic of a white marble table combined with a set of tufted taupe chairs, or a grey marble nest of tables with matte black legs. If a solid marble table is out of budget, opt for a marble-top table. It will give the same spectacular impression at a fraction of the price.

TOP TIP: Style your chosen furniture with accessories which have a muted undertone or colours with less saturation. It’s a timeless way of adding subtle colour into a space whilst complementing the marble.

2.  Lighting


Set the right ambience with your marble lighting.

From ultra sleek floor lamps to domed desk lamps, marble light fixtures add a modern balance to your space. Just imagine a marble pendant light fixture within your hallway… a fantastic way to add a contemporary welcoming feel to your home.

P.S. To avoid creating too much of a cool-toned design, add a little shine and consider selecting light fixtures that have a touch of metallics within them. This will help to add some warmth to the space, whilst effortlessly remaining on trend.

3.  Upholstery


Create a focal point in your room with a stunning piece of marble upholstery.

As it’s so versatile, marbled material can be used to develop an industrial minimalist scheme as well as a grand opulent look. The veined fabric has been used to house almost every item you can think of, from bedding, throws and cushions, to pouffes, table runners and towels.

P.S. If your bedroom is quite small, marble does a swoon-worthy job of creating a more open space when used within a neutral palette.

4.  Ceramics



Why have a regular ceramic when you could have marble?

Marble comes in various shapes and forms, so think outside the box when choosing ceramics for your home. A geometric shaped marble vase or candle holder is always a winner when you want to add a unique yet modish piece into your space.

TOP TIP: Place your ceramic items on top of a coffee table or mantlepiece for an interior styling detail that will skilfully pack a punch.

5.  Ornaments


With ornaments like sculptures and figurines, marble has the power to instantly elevate a room generating a high-end feel.

To not overpower your room with too much marble, opt for an ornamental piece with a gold gilded edge. Remember, metallics and marble are best friends and work seamlessly in any room.


P.S. Metals with a warm undertone e.g. brass, copper or gold add a refined luxe look and are the ultimate way to wed the two materials.

6.  Accessories


Less is more. If you’re a fan of marble but would prefer it within small doses, get your hands on a select few marble décor pieces and accessories.

Accessories such as a soap dish or dispenser for your bathroom will really give your space an elegant hotel-like feel. Or how about a marble wall clock? Not only does it make a stylish statement, but it will also transform your wall.


TOP TIP: A marble or terrazzo tray is perfect for housing your tealight candles, coasters or succulents. It’s the magic touch of interior styling that makes a huge impact.

7.  Flooring



We can all agree that when marble is used en masse within interiors, it has an instant impression.

If you’re planning on renovating or redesigning the flooring in your home, marble is an unmatched favourite. Large floor tiles whether in a mosaic design or a simple grey and white veining are a sure showstopper and a conversation starter.

TOP TIP: If marble flooring is too much of a splurge, settle on a marble rug instead. It has the same majestic effect, plus you have the option of moving it into any room you like.

8.  Walls


What better way to enhance a room than with a marble feature wall.

Marble effect wallpaper delivers all the power of a real marble wall for just a portion of the cost, and with so many designs on the market including oil swirls and 3D textures, there’s bound to be a design option suitable for your style.

P.S. If you’re renting your home and restrictions are in place about changing the walls, marble sticky back plastic and self-adhesive sheets are just as effective and very straightforward to remove.

9.  Shelving


A marble shelf is a flawless way to show off all your favourite home décor, accessories, mirrors, plants, books and utensils.

Whether it’s wall mounted or free standing, a marble shelf is a significant way of using a natural material to display your treasures whilst bringing a sophisticated modern edge to any room.

P.S. A marble shelf would look great on your social media feed too. Who doesn’t love a good #shelfie?

10.  Artwork


Are you a lover of agate designs? Then marble artwork is the one for you.

Artwork around your home creates an instant eye-catching backdrop, but with a marble design you’ve doubled up on the WOW factor. If you’re feeling extra creative, why not DIY your own marble artwork, all you’ll need is a blank canvas and some acrylic paints, the rest of the design is down to you.

TOP TIP: Pick out a piece of artwork which features colours that have calming hues, think pale pink or soft blue. This will assist in creating a serene atmosphere - perfect for your living room or bedroom.
