Calacatta Gold in a Family Kitchen

For Luke and Laura Scullion, this kitchen was never just about appearance. With four children, the space needed to support everyday family life while still feeling considered and complete. Luke, a builder by trade, approached the project with a clear vision. Every detail had to make sense. It had to be durable, practical, and built to last, without compromising on how the space felt as a whole.

They chose Calacatta Gold quartz, a material that brings a refined presence without overwhelming the room. The soft veining adds just enough character, giving the kitchen depth while keeping the overall look calm and balanced.

The island sits at the centre of it all. Generous in size, it anchors the space and becomes where everything happens, from morning routines to family time. With young children in the home, safety was a key consideration. The rounded edges were carefully crafted by our sister company, Mo’s StoneX, softening the form and making the island both practical and reassuring without losing its visual appeal.

Beyond the island, the layout opens up the kitchen, giving the children space to move freely and go about their day. The white and neutral palette keeps the space feeling light and uncluttered, with the stone running seamlessly across the surfaces to maintain a clean, consistent look.
