Marble floors
Explore the marble floors collection in the Malakates catalogue. Compare the entries and identify the options you want to discuss for your project. Based in Pikermi, Attica, Malakates works in natural stone supply and processing for private and professional clients.
A floor as one composition
A marble floor is seen as a whole, rather than as an isolated tile. The plan, layout, joints and direction of the pieces determine how the natural stone appears within the room. Before choosing from a photograph alone, consider entrances, walkways, stairs and fixed furniture. The meeting point between the floor and other surfaces also deserves attention in the drawing. A simple plan with the main dimensions makes it possible to discuss material and piece-size options. A sample helps you consider the appearance alongside the lighting and the other elements of the project. The aim is a coherent design that reflects the actual space.
Quantities and dimensions on a clear basis
Begin with the area of the room, while keeping the layout and cutting details in the conversation. Cuts around the perimeter, changes of direction and special details affect the quantities that need to be discussed. Record the intended piece size and any areas with a different use. For a private or commercial project, send Malakates in Pikermi your drawing and requirements as a basis for an enquiry about the catalogue and processing. The finish, thickness and suitability of the choice should be considered for the specific application with the person responsible for the design or construction. Clear measurements make each option easier to compare.

Before making your selection
Do I need a final floor layout before contacting you?
You can begin with a plan and the room dimensions. If you have a preferred piece size or layout direction, mark it on the drawing. The remaining details can be discussed alongside the construction design.
Does the room area equal the final stone quantity?
It provides an initial basis. The layout, perimeter cuts and special pieces should be considered before agreeing quantities. Send a drawing so these details can form part of the discussion.
How can I assess the appearance over a large area?
Look at a sample and discuss several pieces together. Lighting, joints and the direction of the pattern influence the composition. Considering the actual room plan makes the choice more meaningful than viewing one isolated piece.
