Description
Bold, sophisticated, and richly expressive, the Viridian Elara Checkerboard Marble Tile reimagines the timeless checkerboard pattern through the dramatic beauty of natural green marble. Crafted from a striking combination of Viridian Meadow Marble and classic Carrara Marble, Elara™ pairs deep emerald and forest-green stone with luminous white marble to create an elevated two-tone design that feels simultaneously historic and distinctly modern.
The natural movement of Viridian Meadow, with its rich variations of emerald, deep green, subtle mineral markings, and expressive veining creates a dramatic contrast against Carrara Marble's soft white ground and delicate gray veining. Together, these two natural stones transform the traditional checkerboard into a luxurious architectural statement with extraordinary depth, character, and visual movement.
Available in 4" x 4", 6" x 6", and 8" x 8", the Viridian Elara pattern allows designers to tailor the scale of the checkerboard to the architecture of the room, from intimate powder rooms and vestibules to expansive kitchens, bathrooms, and statement floors.
The Elara Checkerboard Collection
The Elara collection is available in three signature Maison Lang marble colorways, each beautifully paired with Carrara Marble:
-
Viridian Elara — rich emerald green Viridian Meadow Marble + Carrara Marble
-
Obsidian Elara — dramatic Obsidian Black Marble + Carrara Marble
-
Garnet Elara — deep burgundy Garnet Meadow Marble + Carrara Marble
Each combination creates a distinctly different mood while maintaining the collection's signature checkerboard geometry.
Why You'll Love Viridian Elara
Crafted entirely from genuine natural marble, Viridian Elara celebrates the variation and individuality inherent in natural stone. No two pieces are exactly alike. Variations in green coloration, veining, mineral movement, and tonal depth become part of the finished composition, ensuring that every installation possesses its own bespoke character.
The checkerboard format is particularly striking when installed on the diagonal, transforming the squares into an elegant diamond composition reminiscent of grand European interiors. For a more tailored architectural aesthetic, Viridian Elara™ may also be installed in a traditional straight-set checkerboard configuration.
Designed for Statement Interiors
Viridian Elara Checkerboard Marble Tile is an exceptional choice for luxury residential and boutique commercial interiors, including kitchen floors, bathroom floors, powder rooms, foyers, entryways, mudrooms, dressing rooms, fireplace surrounds, feature walls, bars, hospitality spaces, and other statement installations.
The rich green-and-white palette pairs beautifully with warm brass and unlacquered brass fixtures, antique bronze, polished nickel, walnut and oak cabinetry, creamy neutrals, and saturated jewel tones. For a particularly dramatic interior, pair Viridian Elara™ with deep green cabinetry, warm natural woods, and aged brass accents for a layered, collected aesthetic.
Available Sizes
4" x 4" • 6" x 6" • 8" x 8"
Because Elara is created using two contrasting natural marbles, the selected size significantly influences the overall visual impact. The smaller 4" x 4" format creates a more intricate rhythm, while the 6" x 6" offers a beautifully balanced scale. The larger 8" x 8" format produces a bold, architectural checkerboard statement ideal for larger rooms and expansive flooring installations.
