Storm Marble 326 HPL laminate — calm marble character, modern ease

Storm Marble 326 HPL laminate brings a gentle, marble-inspired tone to busy, everyday spaces. The look is tidy and composed, so rooms feel organised without feeling cold. Large wall runs stay quiet. Smaller parts—drawer fronts, shelves, end panels—read neat and precise. The finish handles light well and photographs cleanly, which helps review boards and sign-offs move faster.

Use the décor where you want warmth and control at the same time. In kitchens, long door banks keep the rhythm steady and make compact plans feel ordered. Media walls feel broader with planned joints that guide the eye. Wardrobes keep their vertical logic and remain easy to read. Reception counters look confident without shouting. If someone new to the team asks about the visual, a short, neutral primer on marble explains why soft veining feels timeless and easy to pair.

Why choose Storm Marble 326 HPL laminate

Design teams reach for this surface when they need calm that lasts. The colour is steady and pairs with many palettes. Movement is subtle, so big elevations avoid visual clutter. Day-to-day use does not spoil the effect; the room keeps its quiet baseline while lighting, hardware, fabrics, and art do the expressive work. When you want practical guidance for real projects, the notes in Interior HPL help align substrates, balancing, and edges before drawings begin so fewer changes appear later.

The décor is also flexible across regions and use cases. It suits worktops/countertops/benchtops, cabinet fronts, wardrobe doors, and feature walls. In retail, the calm field lets products and graphics lead. In workplaces, wayfinding stays clear against the quiet background. At home, it adds a warm modern note that is easy to live with and even easier to keep tidy.

Design applications with Storm Marble 326 HPL laminate

Start with real program needs. Kitchens benefit from tall, continuous doors and tidy appliance banks. Align seams with the oven tower and fridge run so the eye moves in a straight line. On islands, decide early between a seamless corner or a slim shadow gap; either looks sharp if you repeat it consistently. Splashbacks and upstands stay calm, letting taps and lighting take the spotlight.

Wardrobes like simple rhythm. Keep verticals steady and repeat them across returns. Integrated pulls remain legible against the quiet background. In studies and living rooms, long, low modules make spaces feel wider. Plan joints to match door heads and window lines so walls read as simple shapes rather than a patchwork of pieces. If you are still shaping a palette, compare neighbours side-by-side in All Collections; locking undertones early prevents last-minute swaps on site.

Specifying Storm Marble 326 HPL laminate

Good results start with clear drawings. Fix panel orientation first. Map joints to real features—door heads, window lines, and datum bands—rather than a default grid. Keep reveal sizes the same across each elevation. Align handle centres with those reveals so shadows look neat and edges stay sharp. Before fabrication, give fabricators one slim packet: bonding approach, backer needs, edge details, and care steps. The latest PDFs live in Resources & Downloads; sharing one set of notes across teams keeps installs clean and close-out quick.

Lighting and styling for Storm Marble 326 HPL laminate

Lighting decides whether a neutral reads flat or architectural. Use broad, soft ambient light to keep planes even. Add low-glare accents at reveals and handles to sharpen edges without hotspots. Under warm hospitality lighting the surface feels welcoming; under cooler office lighting it stays crisp and legible. Build a small sample board under the actual luminaires and take a quick photo; this simple test confirms tone and shadow lines before you order.

Keep the palette short so the architecture stays legible. Warm whites and soft greys make a gentle base. Pale oak adds lift if a room needs more light. Walnut brings a deeper note when you want extra comfort. Matte black hardware gives crisp edges. Brushed metal adds a clean, technical accent. Concrete-look counters and soft textiles bring texture while the joinery remains composed.

Rollouts, consistency, and care

Multi-room or multi-site work benefits from simple, repeatable rules. Standardise reveal sizes, corner details, and joint rhythm. Keep hardware centres consistent across modules. Align beam angles with seam layout so shadows support structure, not fight it. These choices preserve the language of the scheme from room to room.

After handover, care stays simple. Routine wipe-downs with a soft cloth are usually enough. Clear guidance helps cleaners protect the finish without over-polishing. The surface holds colour and order in high-touch areas, so kitchens, wardrobes, reception desks, and display plinths stay camera-ready with little effort. When you need nearby tones for shelves or back walls, revisit All Collections to keep the wider story coherent.

By keeping lines simple, joints planned, and the palette focused, you get spaces that feel composed and welcoming. Storm Marble 326 HPL laminate makes those choices easier. It pairs well, installs cleanly, and supports the details you want people to notice—light, form, and the things that matter most.
