As we see the direction of kitchen design step further away from the monotonal whites and greys of the past decade, our love of natural materials, embraced by warm earth hues and exquisite craftsmanship, is the driving force behind today’s spaces.
Timber has once again come to the fore – in both veneers and solid state – and stone surfaces, such as marble and travertine, are also at the top of the wish list. As is sustainability!
A relatively new addition to this mix is the crystalline silica-free mineral surface. Pioneered by Caesarstone, who introduced the first of its kind – ICON – in January 2024, this new natural surface gained immediate acceptance due to its sustainability credentials and its ability to faithfully emulate the most beautiful marbles, granites and travertines.
Caesarstone ICON Calacatta Dreamwave
With an initial offering of 33 designs, Caesarstone ICON Advanced Mineral Surfaces has quickly expanded its offerings to meet both demand and the ever-evolving directions in interior design.
Three new designs were introduced earlier this year (2025), with the brand announcing three more this month: Caesarstone ICON Glacier Flow, Caesarstone ICON Lunar Frost and Caesarstone ICO Calacatta Dreamwave.
Glacier Flow
A pearl-white base with random veining and inclusions in a balanced mix of soft greys and silver, creating an overall sense of movement and elegance.
Lunar Frost
A frosted grey base overlaid with a directional drift of multi-form aggregates in soft greys and earthy brown mineral deposits.
Calacatta Dreamwave
Emulating the luxury of traditional Calacatta marble, this surface features a muted white background with random and complex veining in deeper greys and subtle, earthy browns.
Caesarstone ICO Lunar Frost
In a world where sustainability carries equal weight to visual beauty and performance, Caesarstone is committed to using natural materials and as much recycled content as possible (at least 80 per cent in each slab) in each of its advanced mineral surfaces. Caesarstone ICON is the only mineral surface to offer a lifetime warranty, in recognition of its superior resistance to staining and wear, offering a highly durable surface that will retain its natural beauty under the most vigorous of daily use.
Caesarstone ICON Glacier Flow
All Caesarstone ICON crystalline silica-free surfaces have undergone the most rigorous of independent testing, certifying the absence of crystalline silica.
