Homes are becoming increasingly open-plan, with kitchens, living rooms, and outdoor spaces often connected, naturally making walls, floors, and countertops an integral part of the overall design. These materials not only need to look good, but also withstand oil stains, high temperatures, scratches, and everyday impacts. Spanish building materials company Cosentino has launched two new collections for its brand "Dekton": "ARTIK NODES," available only in the US and Canada, and the "NOMAK" collection, which has just entered the North American market.
The two styles are quite different. The former is inspired by the cracks in Arctic ice, creating a strong visual impact. The latter, on the other hand, uses soft gray, white, and beige tones, creating a quiet and natural atmosphere. Whether used in a kitchen island, bathroom walls, floors, or outdoor areas, it can become the main color scheme of the space.
ARTIK NODES
Bring the Arctic ice patterns into your home
The ARTIK NODES collection is inspired by the textures formed when Arctic ice layers overlap, crack, and collide. Unlike typical stone patterns that extend in a single direction, the surface lines converge at different points, creating a more layered look and a touch of naturally formed irregularity. The collection comes in three colors: "INUK," "BOREALIS," and "BERING." "INUK" features a bright glacial white base with subtle, misty, diffused patterns, resulting in a clean yet not overly monotonous look, perfect for pairing with dark wood cabinets, black metal, or sleek modern furniture.
"BOREALIS" is an ivory white with a hint of pink, interspersed with irregular sand-colored textures. It has a softer feel than pure white and looks natural in bathrooms, bedrooms, or warm-toned kitchens. "BERING" is a snow-white with gray stone patterns and more defined lines, suitable for large walls or kitchen islands, allowing the space to maintain a visual focus even without much decoration. While the series is inspired by ice and snow, it doesn't necessarily have to create a cool style. Pairing it with wood, beige fabrics, or warm lighting can actually balance the temperature of the space. This series is more suitable for those who like minimalist design but don't want their home to look too bland.
NOMAK
Simple yet not boring soft aesthetics
The NOMAK series takes a different approach. Instead of particularly striking patterns, it uses soft grays, off-whites, and ivory to create a more cohesive look across different areas. These shades are especially suitable for open-plan homes, as the same material used on kitchen countertops, floors, or walls won't appear overly jarring. "EVOK" is a subtly varied ash gray with an understated texture, suitable for large-area application, maintaining consistency across the living room, dining room, and kitchen. "KEENA," a soft white with pale gold veining, reflects more natural light, making it ideal for brightening up poorly lit kitchens, bathrooms, or vertical walls.
"THALA" is an ivory color with a sandy texture, creating a warmer atmosphere. It pairs particularly well with light wood, matte ceramic, or rattan furniture, making it suitable for both modern homes and natural, rustic interior styles. Both series are available in 0.8, 1.2, and 2 cm thicknesses and feature UV resistance, heat resistance, fire resistance, scratch resistance, stain resistance, and low water absorption. Therefore, it can be used not only for indoor countertops and walls but also for floors and outdoor spaces. For everyday homes, the biggest advantage is that aesthetics and practicality can be balanced; you don't have to worry about leaving marks everywhere just because you want a light-colored surface.
