Projects Featuring UMI Stone
Derrico • Kitchen & Bar
This modern kitchen and bar combine warmth and sophistication through bold contrast and cohesive materials. UMI's Mystical quartzite with soft gray and taupe veining flows from the island’s waterfall edge up the range wall as a full-slab backsplash. Natural oak tones grounds the space balanced with matte black accents that create a welcoming yet refined atmosphere.
Material Highlight: UMI natural stone — Mystical quartzite used on the island waterfall, bar top, and hood slab.
Kavanaugh • Modern Estate
The kitchen in this modern coastal estate showcases effortless flow and natural sophistication. UMI's Quartzite Bianca wraps the counters and backsplash in one continuous surface, creating clean lines and a light, airy feel. The subtle gray veining adds depth while balancing perfectly with sleek cabinetry and warm accents throughout the open layout. This space captures EDGE's signature calm-coastal aesthetic—refined, livable, and timeless.
Material Highlight: UMI's Bianca Quartzite — a calming natural stone known for its strength and elegant veining, used across the kitchen’s island, perimeter counters, and backsplash.
