Opening Dialogue 

Homeowner: “We’re redesigning the living room and want something natural but not overused. I love green marble, but there are so many types.”

Interior Designer: “Two top choices are Calacatta Verde Marble and Prague Green Marble. Both are timeless, but they create very different vibes.”

Homeowner: “We want something bold, but not too loud. Something that feels luxurious but modern.”

Designer: “Then let me break it down. Calacatta Verde offers dramatic contrast with strong white veining, while Prague Green brings a calm, organic texture. Both are durable, boost home value, and pair well with wood, metal, or minimalist furniture.”
