On the left a Blanco  under mounted sink (sorry about the glare). On the right is our inspiration for the up coming soapstone hot tub/spa. It's being started this fall. The beauty of the stone is that under water it mimics the shimmer of the water itself and the warm soapy feeling is very comforting. Built as an in ground spa it will last a very long time with little maintenance.


On the left is a  Toronto installation where the clients have soapstone directly behind the sink and will then add a tile backsplash everywhere else. On the right is a more contemporary kitchen using soapstone.
