A beautifully designed bathroom is more than a functional space — it’s a daily retreat, a place to relax, unwind, and enjoy a touch of luxury. As homeowners across South Florida invest more in spa-like environments and elevated design, marble and granite have become top choices for creating timeless, high-end bathrooms that feel both elegant and enduring.
At Baltic Design Custom Marble & Granite, we help homeowners transform their bathrooms with stunning natural stone that blends beauty, durability, and craftsmanship. Whether you’re dreaming of a serene, modern sanctuary or a dramatic, luxurious escape, custom stone is the foundation of a truly exceptional bathroom remodel.
In this article, we explore why marble and granite remain the gold standard for bathroom design — and how these natural stones enhance vanities, shower walls, flooring, and more.
The Lasting Luxury of Natural Stone
Few materials rival the sophistication of marble and granite. Their natural veining, organic patterns, and polished surfaces elevate bathroom spaces instantly. Unlike synthetic products, natural stone offers a depth and richness that reflects true craftsmanship and artistry.
Why Marble and Granite Stand Out:
- Timeless elegance that never goes out of style
- Unique patterns — no two slabs are identical
- Premium feel associated with high-end bathroom design
- Durability when professionally fabricated and sealed
For South Florida homeowners seeking a luxurious, long-lasting bathroom, stone remains the number one choice.
The Perfect Stone for Every Bathroom Surface
One of the biggest advantages of natural stone is its versatility. Whether you’re remodeling a compact bathroom or designing an expansive primary suite, marble and granite can enhance every part of the space.
Stone Bathroom Vanities
The vanity is often the central design element of the bathroom, and stone countertops create an elevated, custom look.
Marble vanities
- Smooth, cool surface ideal for beauty and skincare
- Elegant veining for a luxurious aesthetic
- Works beautifully with gold, matte black, or chrome fixtures
Granite vanities
- More resistant to scratches and stains
- Great for high-traffic or family bathrooms
- Available in bold, dramatic, or subtle tones
Both materials can be fabricated with custom edge profiles, integrated sinks, or matching backsplash pieces.
Stone Shower Walls & Wet Areas
Stone shower walls turn ordinary showers into spa-like retreats.
Benefits of Stone in Showers:
- Seamless, grout-free expanses that are easier to maintain
- High resistance to heat and moisture
- Stunning large-format designs for dramatic visual impact
Popular choices include:
- White Carrara marble for a clean, bright spa feel
- Fantasy Brown marble for warm, organic movement
- Black granite for bold, modern luxury
Stone Flooring
Stone flooring adds elegance and durability to any bathroom.
Marble Floors
- Classic look with high-end appeal
- Soft, romantic veining
- Ideal for primary suites and luxury bathrooms
Granite Floors
- Extremely durable
- Less prone to etching or scratching
- Perfect for busy households or commercial restrooms
With proper sealing, both marble and granite offer long-lasting beauty and performance.
Before & After Transformations: The Power of Custom Stone
