What is Blue Lava Quartzite?

The field is blue. Quartz is the least expensive stone Ace fabricates, at $120 to $150 per square foot installed. Blue Lava Quartzite is quartz mineral pressed with resin in a factory, so it arrives non-porous and stays that way.

Sizes

Blue Lava Quartzite is made in 2 sizes. Size is the decision people skip and then notice every day: it sets how much grout line ends up in the field, and a larger module on the same wall reads calmer than a small one.

Finishes

It comes in 2 finishes. Finish decides how much light the surface throws back — a polished face will brighten a galley kitchen, a matte one hides water spotting near the sink.

What to put next to it

Built from the color we measured off Blue Lava Quartzite itself, not from its name.

Measured, not guessed: #8F97A0, mid-light and cool. The nearest color we hold pairings for is Concrete / Cement Gray. It sits close to neutral, which means it will take direction from the cabinets rather than fight them.

Cabinets

  • Pure White — soft modern; keeps a small kitchen light without going all-white. Against this surface it is a step lighter, which lifts the surface without washing it out solid

Backsplash

  • Terracotta / Clay — Concrete gray is the cold plunge terracotta needs — without it the clay goes theme-restaurant, with it the wall reads earthy and editorial.. Against this surface it is close in weight, so the two will blend rather than contrast current

Steer away from

  • Light Gray — Flat gray on flat gray is the 2015 flip-house special — no undertone tension, so the whole room goes dishwater the moment the light drops.
