Large slabs, which are the subject of continuous and increasingly innovative research work, also eliminate the size limitations which, in the past, penalised this extraordinary material.  Joints, which for a long time were considered the weak point of stone floors and walls, are now an integral part of the overall look of the slab or embellished with metal finishes, such as brass and copper.<br> Combined with the clear-cut design of a sofa, neutral shades and a few other key furnishings, large stone slabs give living areas a primordial and majestic charm which, at the end of the day, contributes to the feeling of being \u201chome at last\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:right\"><em>Consuelo Malta<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the field of architecture, stone is the main material found in archetypal images.
