About this project

The challenge

The shower layout is intricate, so the porcelain slabs had to be cut to exact specs. Large panels had to be moved through a tight bathroom without damage. The homeowners wanted minimal seams, and a TopZero undermount sink had to sit exactly in the vanity.

The solution

We used StoneEx digital laser templating to capture the exact size of the bathroom. Seams were planned to align with the grout lines. The team moved the panels into place with specialized equipment.

The result

The shower walls, floor and vanity read as a cohesive, calm space. The aligned seams add to the sense of continuity.

The challenge in detail

Complex Shower Layout

The shower in this Kingston bathroom has an intricate layout, and the Calacatta Luca porcelain had to look continuous across the shower walls and the floor. The existing plumbing and fixtures stayed where they were, so the new panels had to be planned around them without affecting how the shower works.

Moving large porcelain panels was its own technical problem. Each slab had to be brought into place inside a tight bathroom with careful coordination so it would not be damaged. Because the homeowners wanted as few seams as possible, every seam was planned to fall on a grout line. The vanity added one more step: the TopZero undermount sink needed an exact position that looks right, works in daily use and keeps the porcelain surface sound.

How we approached it

Templating, Cutting and Panel Installation

The work started with StoneEx digital laser templating, which captured the bathroom's dimensions so the porcelain would fit the space. That record was the basis for lining up the seams with the grout lines and keeping the pattern flowing from the walls to the floor.

The Calacatta Luca slabs were then cut by CNC to the digital template, including the detailed cuts around the shower fixtures and the vanity. Seam locations were set to match the grout lines, which helps the look and keeps the panels structurally sound. During installation our team handled the large panels with care, setting each one in place with specialized equipment so the porcelain arrived on the wall and floor without damage.

The finished project

A Cohesive Porcelain Bathroom

The finished bathroom balances appearance and everyday practicality. The Calacatta Luca porcelain gives the shower walls, floor and vanity one consistent look, and because the seams follow the grout lines, the eye reads the surfaces as continuous rather than as separate pieces. The detailed cuts around the shower fixtures keep the panels fitted closely to the existing plumbing, so nothing interrupts the surface.

The shower and vanity now share the same refined character, which changes how the whole room feels. The porcelain panels and the TopZero sink fit together cleanly, and the result is a low-maintenance bathroom with a marble look that works well day to day while keeping the calm, continuous finish the homeowners asked for.
