[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I almost did this too but hated the look of the two patterns up against each other where the back counter and backsplash meet. Loved the marble tile but didn’t like it next to quartz. It then made the countertop look cheaper or fake. YMMV. [/quote] The counter we plan to get won't have much pattern, mostly white with just a little bit of grey swirl. By marble tile, i dont mean swirly pattern tiles like is used in bathrooms, but a solid white/grey tile cut in a pattern such as herringbone or alternating Subway tile. I'v seen photos and floor models similar to what I plan to do and don't think it looks cheap at all but everyone's opinion is different.[/quote] From a wear standpoint it will hold up fine, but I agree with PP that marble up against quartz will make the quartz look plastic and bad. It looks fine in pictures but in person it will not. [/quote]
