Don’t you love it when a plan comes together? This project included some great architectural features such as a curved granite counter top with matching curves on the soffit above, and curved tile below.
These details definitely helped contribute to the over all WOW factor. and as you can imagine, critical planning is important when introducing these to a project. When you dealing with unforgiving products like granite and marble, we definitely remember the adage, measure twice, cut once.
Curved black marble was used as a architectural feature, but 
it also served as a perfect transition between the tile and living room carpet. The marble was cut using a computerized water jet cutter, and the added associated expense was well worth it.
When incorporating a custom soffit above, it’s a perfect time to consider some custom overhead lighting. On this job, we added a couple of recessed lights which not only provided the task lighting required, but it also added accent lighting that emphasizes the beautiful granite counter top.
