Leaning towards minimalism yet exuding warmth in their radiant mass, stone elements offer not just visual appeal, but a sense of repose, shaping a home into a serene enclave of quiet luxury — the latest trend in highend interior and exterior design. However, “trend” may be a misnomer for an emphasis on the timeless, primordial, and elemental. As Deborah Osburn, founder of Clé Tile House and a pioneer of quiet luxury, explains, “It’s an alternative luxury: a new — but also old — way of thinking about our environments and the things that surround us.”
Clé, a leader in the artisanal tile movement in the U.S., “embraces quiet luxury as a way of living and feeling in a space, rather than just a specific look,” shares Osburn. Known for their expressive materials like Moroccan zellige, artisan cement, and Italian cotto tiles, Clé
elevates natural stone tile into high art.
The company’s approach through stonework emphasizes the authentic nature of the materials, the artisans behind them, and the rich heritage and history they evoke. Osburn explains, “we encourage design that respects and makes the most of stone’s character and origin. Stone is formed over millennia through almost unimaginable forces.” By meticulously selecting and working with each stone, Clé ensures that its stone tiles retain the raw, unrefined beauty that nature intended.
The Lapidary collection, inspired by the renowned Italian architect Carlo Scarpa, showcases a range of rounded and fluted linear stone tiles, smooth-cut ovals, and rough-cut mosaics. Each piece in this collection is a testament to Scarpa’s vision, a quietly classic homage to the elegance of the
1970s in Milan. These tiles are more than just decor; they are sculptural elements that add depth and character to any space.
The Strata Linea collection focuses on sustainability and creative reuse. Architectdesigned, this collection repurposes stone remnants from architectural projects in the Eastern Mediterranean into elegant tile planks. A wall of Strata Linea tiles imbues a room with the quiet awe of discovery wandering through the serene backstreets of Essaouira or Yaffo. Sold in sets, these tiles reflect a broader ethos of valuing longevity and minimizing ecological footprints. They not only reduce waste, but also tell a story of transformation and renewal.
Stone Forest, founded by Michael Zimber
in 1989, seamlessly blends enduring natural materials with the serene beauty of the wilderness in these fixtures. Zimber’s journey with stone and water began in his early twenties as a climbing and river guide. Fascinated by the rock cliffs he scaled, he began sculpting stone in his spare time.
After a decade of guiding, he sought a new way to bring the essence of nature into people’s homes, and Stone Forest was born. Today, the company comprises artisans and designers dedicated to incorporating the elegant simplicity of natural materials into baths, kitchens, and outdoor sculptures.
“We take our lead from nature’s blueprint, emphasizing the quiet beauty of stone, bronze, copper, wood, bamboo, and iron,” Zimber explains.
Stone Forest’s unique collection of bathroom and kitchen fixtures is carved from blocks of natural stone sourced from quarries worldwide, including marble, basalt, travertine, onyx, and limestone. Each sculptural piece is a testament to the essential energy and beauty of nature, “designed to evoke the expansive and restorative feelings of the outdoor world,” Zimber says. The meticulous craftsmanship highlights the inherent textures and colors of the stone, creating functional art that transforms everyday spaces.
The Papillion bathtub, a client favorite, is a perfect representation of quiet luxury: a commanding presence that is meticulously designed to elevate the space without overwhelming. Winnowed from solid blocks of stone and then refined with hammer and chisel, the Papillion evokes hidden forest pools and the whisper of wind over a silent rockface. The elegance embedded in the subtleties of craftsmanship and the natural beauty of the stone speaks volumes without shouting for attention.
The San Marco collection from New Ravenna is a tribute to the company’s Italian heritage and the timeless enchantment of Venice.
Founded in 1992 by artist and designer Sara Baldwin, New Ravenna has established a reputation as the world’s most exquisite
collection of custom stone and glass mosaics for both home and commercial installations.
Designer Jacquelyn Bizzotto shares, “I found myself reflecting on the skilled artisans who meticulously cut and laid each tessera to craft mosaics that have withstood the test of time.” The resulting collection interprets the
craftsmanship of the lagoon city’s priceless Byzantine mosaics, alluring geometric designs, and the classic elegance of marble terrazzo, through a contemporary lens.
The San Marco collection embodies this philosophy of discreet sophistication, where serenity is found in the meticulous details and subtle elegance of each piece. The Luca and Caterina mosaics reimagine the tranquil seclusion of Venice’s secret gardens, uniting calming earth tones with organic shapes. The understated color palette — the gray nebbia of winter, the blue mist of the lagoon, and the subtle shimmer of the city’s ubiquitous gold silk — capture the essence of La Serenissima, Venice’s traditional name meaning “The Most Serene.”
However, San Marco’s exploration of Venice goes beyond mere color and pattern. It honors the legacy of Venetian artisans, whose meticulous attention to intricate details and refined aesthetics forms the foundation of the city’s historical grandeur and enduring beauty.
Effortlessly integrating classical mosaic techniques like hand-pieced stone with modern processes like waterjet cutting, the artistry behind the San Marco collection creates a harmonious fusion. “When you see the gorgeous mosaics and pavement in Venice and realize they were made entirely by hand, you can’t help but be stunned at the work involved,” Bizzotto shares. “San Marco continues this exceptional tradition.”
A first encounter with any piece from Zachary A. Design’s STONE collection is unforgettable. It’s not just because of the comfort — the modular settees are perfectly designed to cradle the body in repose — or the minimalist, monumental design that turns any yard or patio into a stone sculpture garden. Rather, it’s the sensory delight of perceiving a monolithic chair or table and being able to, as if by magic, lift it with a single hand. “They smile every time,” founder and designer Zachary Bitner shares, “It’s addictive.”
How does Bitner accomplish this sleight-ofhand? Each piece in the STONE collection is built from a thin shell of fiberglass reinforced concrete that is light yet durable. The incredibly stonelike textures are achieved through meticulously designed molds,
textures are achieved through meticulously designed molds, influenced by Bitner’s familiarity with the raw texture of stone from a decade working for a statue company. The furniture’s minimalist design, combined with its volumetric quality, makes it a standout in any outdoor space.
One of his notable pieces, the Wavebreaker, an ultra-minimal Adirondack chair, exemplifies Bitner’s unique blend of technique and innovation. The reference to the Adirondack chair — and all the quiet contemplation of looking out over the mountains or crackling waves — is featured in Bitner’s attention to clean lines and angles, holding the body just perfectly to admire the vista. And yet the nuanced shift from wood to stone makes Wavebreaker at once fresh and timeless: “It’s like its own thing. It doesn’t look like a normal chair or table; it looks like a piece of stone.”
For Bitner, quiet luxury is all about working with the environment instead of overwhelming it. Zachary’s pieces are designed to withstand the elements and are able to live outside indefinitely and be enjoyed year round. “When the snow falls on them, it creates these little discs of snow around these colorful pieces,” he shares. Their refined minimalist design and durability make them heirloom-quality additions to any outdoor space.pieces are designed to withstand the elements and are able to live outside indefinitely and be enjoyed year round. “When the snow falls on them, it creates these little discs of snow around these colorful pieces,” he shares.

Her passion for the land is palpable, whether she’s describing a perfect day that begins with a warm sfogliatella or recounting the magic of a sunset boat ride along the coast.
Alessia shares her insider perspective on what makes this corner of Italy so irresistible—from the region’s culinary treasures like Mozzarella di Bufala and scialatielli ai frutti di mare, to the timeless allure of handcrafted Vietri ceramics and the legendary hospitality of its people. “Salerno and the Amalfi Coast are living paintings, where mountains plunge into the sea and villages seem suspended between sky and earth. Amalfi, with its imposing cathedral, tells stories of sailors and merchants. Positano, with its pastelcolored houses, is a jewel set in the rock,” Di Majo poetically describes the individual charms of each town. Not to mention, there is a variety of real estate on offer,
should you wish to extend a vacation into something more permanent. She shares “the real estate market in Campania is a mosaic of opportunities, from the exclusive villas of the Amalfi Coast, reaching million-euro prices, to the more affordable apartments in Salerno and Cilento. Here, a home is not just a property but a legacy to pass down, a deep bond with the land and its roots.”
