It is quite difficult for a person without a design education to perform such work, but if certain rules are followed, it is quite possible.

How to combine decorative stone with a classic style

Often home craftsmen doubt whether it is possible to combine such a “wild” material as stone with a sublime classical style. In fact, it can not only be combined with the classics, but also add charm to it. The main thing here is to avoid piling up. After all, everything is good in moderation.

Classicism implies moderation, which means it is better not to have too much stone. Piling up here will backfire. A parallel can be drawn with roses. After all, it will be completely unusual to look at such a flower if there is not one bud on the stem, but, for example, five or six.

How to combine artificial stone with Provence style

To create such a style as "Provence", decorative stone is most often used in the interior of the kitchen. In this case, the colors are chosen lighter, and the texture is noticeably uneven. The more irregularities there are on the surface of the panels or tiles, the brighter the line of "Provence" will be.

Recently, this style is gaining more and more popularity. This is due to the fact that home craftsmen like the decoration of the old French chalets. However, it should be understood that such material is more difficult to clean. After all, the more irregularities on the surface and the deeper they are, the more difficult it is to wash out of them the dirt or grease that is inherent in the kitchen.But home craftsmen are ready to make such sacrifices, for the sake of aesthetics and beauty. Below you can find examples of combining this durable material with the Provence style:

How to properly lay a decorative stone: step by step instructions

Laying such material has some nuances, which we will now talk about in more detail.

Illustration	Action being performed
	Ready-made solutions are often used for gluing surfaces, but they are quite expensive. In our case, we took a water-heat-resistant dry glue, which is kneaded with a mixer.
	The glue is applied to the primed surface in a thin layer, after which the excess is removed with a notched trowel. At the same time, if the surface is prepared and leveled well, then during installation it will not be necessary to use the mounting level, although the horizontal lines are still worth checking
	Before starting work, the tiles must be laid out on the floor as they will be glued. This will allow you to imagine the future "drawing" on the wall.
	Laying starts from the bottom, in horizontal rows. To ensure that the openings between the tiles are even, use wooden or plastic wedges of the same size. They are easy to find in any hardware store.
	Thus, the entire wall is laid out. It remains to fill the seams. The characteristics of our glue allow us to use it for such a purpose.
	To do this, you need a regular bag with a cut off corner, which is filled with an adhesive mixture. This procedure is pretty simple

We suggest looking at several more options for artificial stone in the interior of the hallway:

Finally

Despite all the difficulties of installation or the high cost of some models, decorative stone today can be called, perhaps, the best finishing material. Of course, provided that the hands of the master are not crooked and grow from the right place. The result can exceed even the wildest expectations.
