 Carrara Marmotec 2008 has a brand new look
 

A new look to attract the world of design and architecture with an innovative project for a new Natural Stone Vision. The announcement at Zona Tortona 2008 during the Design Week in Milan.

Great expectations for the next Carrara Marmotec (29 May/1 June) which will have a new look and innovative high profile events, although not forgetting its tradition established over the last 28 years.

One important new event linked to a wider structural project for the Exhibition is: the Natural Stone Vision, an area showing trends and creativity in Hall E.

A space inside one of the most visited halls in the exhibition centre which aims to offer a new vision of natural stone, its interpretation and consequent potential uses, giving cues and ideas to the world of design and architecture following the wishes of industry players that currently point to hospitality and sharing.

The Natural Stone Vision is an open space, a cube, black on the outside and white on the inside, built to encourage an exchange of ideas, a dialogue between companies, influencers, International architects and designers, to encourage ”open-mindedness”, to share tales of different experiences connected with the fascinating, age-old world of marble and natural stone in general.

Because this is what the stone market asks of the world of Architecture and Design: the possibility to use these products, which up to now have been used in traditional ways, to express new ideas and to find radically innovative working relationships using a common, contemporary language as well as technology.

The experience of thousands of years of processing marble and the desire to welcome new challenges and changes have enabled this project to materialize. It is due to take place over the four exhibition days with meetings with personalities connected to International architecture such as Aldo Cibic, Giulio Cappellini, Michele De Lucchi, Enzo Calabrese and Teresa Sapej.

A large, symbolic table will unite everyone, each with his/her own contribution, ideas and personal vision. At the end of the four days all these ideas will be brought together to formulate the Natural Stone Vision, a summary of all the projects, a global philosophy around stone products which are changing and guidelines for a future approach to the world of design.

This is definitely a case of work in progress which begins with the announcement of the Natural Stone Vision at the Milanese Design Week: Zona Tortona will in fact be hosting what will be the emblem of the project for this 2008, that is hospitality, meeting-you.

A large marble door in the Superstudio Piu (a place with a long-standing tradition in International design) will meet the large number of architects, designers, “design-addicted” and international press to offer a taste of the great excitement in the run up to the new CarraraMarmotec.

 Marble Fireplace Mantels
 

When people discuss marble for home renovations 95 percent of the time they are talking about countertops and floors for kitchens and bathrooms.

Marble is a natural stone product that has been used in construction projects throughout the ages. The Greeks and Romans used marble as a decoration, flooring, support columns and statues in many of the structures that still stand today. Marble provides the elegance of time and an overall sense of class. Marble is now being quarried all over the world, bringing the benefit of an unbelievable diverse range of colors and patterns, plus very competitive pricing. As with any natural stone product, no two pieces are the same, the fault lines and fossils that have engrained themselves into the stone over the centuries creates an everlasting beauty that cannot be matched by any man made reproduction.

Besides the most common use of kitchen and bathroom countertops and flooring, marble makes an excellent choice as a fireplace surround and mantel. In years past, the only way to purchase a marble mantel was to have it custom crafted and that usually took it out of many peoples home remodel budgets. Recently however, an industry producing a line of standard marble fireplace mantels has been created. These manufacturers are situated all over the world from the UK to China, the US and many of the South American countries. The products are being found in high end home remodeling centers and are relatively easy to install. Most home handymen are quite capable of performing the installation.

Marble does need some tender loving care in order to maintain its aesthetic richness. Most natural stone and this includes marble is porous and needs to be sealed, preferably with a penetrating sealer ever 12 months. A penetrating sealer will prevent dirt and grime from entering the microscopic cavities within the stone.
For those who can afford to remodel with a larger budget you can still have custom crafted fireplace mantels made from marble, most are now hollow, reducing an old problem of using marble, that being weight.

Many cleaning supply retailers may claim the best way to clean a granite countertop employs the use of harsh chemicals. Not so! To clean any kind of stone product, it’s smart to use a product with a neutral pH. Cleaners that contain acidic ingredients, including vinegar, can cause scratching and even deep etches.

Alcohol, on the other hand, with a pH of around 7.0, is one of two ingredients needed for the best way to clean a granite countertop. The other? Good, old-fashioned liquid dishwashing detergent.
When you add a few drops of say, Dawn dishwashing detergent to a quarter-cup of alcohol, then fill the rest of a quart-size spray bottle with water, you’ve got yourself the best way to clean a granite countertop for only a few, measly cents. Compare that to the $5 or $6 you’ll pay for those expensive (and potentially damaging) products that you’ve mistakenly thought to be the best way to clean a granite countertop.

Other things to keep in mind for the best way to clean a granite countertop include maintenance and prevention. Maintain your beautiful stone by blotting spills immediately and then deep cleaning weekly with your homemade alcohol/dish soap solution.
Prevent damaging your stone by avoiding placing anything acidic directly on it, which includes tomatoes, oranges, lemons, limes, or grapefruit. The juices of these food products are particularly damaging.

The only prerequisite might be for you to check with the cemetery management and letting them know what you will be doing.
