At Studio Porcelain, we take pride in providing innovative porcelain surfaces that transform spaces with both beauty and durability.
So when Zephyr and Stone, a renowned design studio, shared their experience specifying Laminam Porcelain, we knew their insights would be invaluable. Here’s what they said about why porcelain is their go-to benchtop surface for homes and interior design projects.
Stain Resistance That Stands the Test of Time
Zephyr and Stone have worked with a variety of surfaces, but one of the standout benefits they highlighted about porcelain is its resistance to stains. As they put it, kitchen surfaces need to withstand daily spills, from red wine to pasta sauce, without absorbing stains. With Laminam you can achieve the luxurious look of natural stone—without the worry of staining.
Durability That Designers Can Rely On
Zephyr and Stone know that benchtops should be as functional as they are beautiful. That’s why they appreciate the scratch and impact resistance of Laminam Porcelain. They’ve seen firsthand how our high-density surface withstands wear and tear, ensuring designs remain pristine over time.
Versatile Solutions for Any Project
One of the key reasons Zephyr and Stone chose Laminam is its versatility. They’ve used Laminam in a number of projects across a range of applications, from sleek 12mm benchtops to elegant splashbacks and vertical surfaces in 3mm and 5mm thicknesses. With a diverse selection of colours, textures, and finishes, Laminam allows designers and homeowners to bring their creative visions to life with ease.
Strength with a Contemporary Edge
When designing statement kitchens, Zephyr and Stone choose materials that deliver both aesthetic impact and strength. Because Laminam edges can be mitred to create the illusion of thick stone slabs— this allowed them to achieve bold, modern designs with confidence.
Heat Resistance for Everyday Use
Kitchens are high-heat environments, which is why benchtop durability is always a key consideration in Zephyr and Stone kitchen designs. Laminam can withstand temperatures up to 200°C, providing the convenience of placing hot pots and pans directly onto the surface without worry, making it a practical choice for busy households.
Unlike natural stone, which demands ongoing maintenance, Laminam’s non-porous nature means it remains beautiful without additional upkeep.
Low Maintenance, High Performance
Effortless Cleaning
Zephyr and Stone balance aesthetics and convenience — because in good design, you shouldn’t have to choose. That’s why in projects where low-maintenance surfaces are needed, Laminam‘s resistance to stains and chemicals, and easy cleaning with everyday products, makes it the perfect surface — both for style and practicality.
A Surface for Every Space
From benchtops to splashbacks, walls, and even floors, Zephyr and Stone have specified Laminam in a number of projects. Their experience reflects what Laminam have always known—our porcelain surfaces offer unmatched versatility, durability, and timeless appeal.
We’re thrilled to see Zephyr and Stone’s incorporate Laminam in a number of their stunning designs. Want to explore the Laminam range for yourself?
