GRANADA, Spain – A 2021 Macael Awards winner showcased the versatility of two of Cosentino Group’s surface products.

Kindree Chescoe and her design studio KLC kre-ā-tiv of Langley, B.C., received the North America International Award here on Nov. 12 to for a residential project located in Langley. Orange, Calif.-based McClean Design collaborated on the project.

The winning project features more than 107,000 ft² of ultra-compact Dekton® surfaces in several installations, including interior wall cladding, flooring, staircase, fireplace cladding, and countertops. Dekton was also featured as exterior cladding, exterior flooring, stairs, and patio and garden walkways.

The project used Dekton’s Helena and Korus and customized Dekton colors - Ventus Portobello and Marquina Fossil. The use of these custom colors helped achieve a smooth aesthetic, where the surfaces could be used in large quantities without impacting or saturating different areas of the home.

It also provided a transition from interior to exterior, paying tribute to the beautiful outdoor surroundings where the house is located.

Cosentino’s Silestone® quartz surfaces were also used throughout the home, providing a fresh and clean look in the kitchen and bath areas. Silestone’s Ocean Jasper was used for the main kitchen countertops, with Ocean Storm used as the bar counter. Silestone’s Iconic White and Corktown were both used for the bathrooms.

The design team worked closely with the Cosentino Showroom in Vancouver to incorporate the surfaces in the home. Jesus Carreño Carrillo, General Manager, Western Region for Cosentino Canada, attended the ceremony to help accept the award.

“This is an extraordinary project for Cosentino. The multitude of Dekton applications throughout the home is a testament to how versatile the ultra-compact surface can be,” Carrillo said. “We are thrilled that a Canadian project was awarded Macael’s North America International Award this year, which was a true collaboration of partners on both sides of the border.

"This project is in a class of its own, and all those who had a hand in the build should be very proud.”

The Macael Awards are presented by the Andalusian Marble Industry Association, the leading natural-stone association located in the Almeria region of Spain.

Now in its 36th year, the awards recognize exceptional projects and professionals in the architecture and design industries globally and have garnered a reputation as one of the most significant international award programs in the stone industry.
