MKW Surfaces supplied 55 of these apartments with marble pieces such as cistern tops and shelves to all bathrooms.
The main characteristic of technical marble is uniformity in veining and pattern across the entire project which would have proved difficult to achieve with a natural stone such as marble or granite.
The building has a modern look and to match we have supplied each of the pieces with an eased profile edge on top and bottom edges (below image).
The Barbican Centre, one of London's liveliest cultural venues, is nearby as well as a plethora of restaurants, bars and pubs of Farringdon and Shoreditch.
The area is well served by buses as well as the Underground. Living in London's Zone 1 means you are within easy traveling distance from all other parts of London.
MKW Surfaces specialists in supplying marble and granite to block of apartments to property developers, architects and designers.
