<p>Here is how leading Indian designers are specifying surfaces this year.</p><h2>Book-matched marble</h2><p>Mirror-image veining on feature walls is the single biggest 'wow' element in luxury projects. It asks for large slabs and patient installation.</p><h2>Terrazzo's revival</h2><p>Terrazzo-effect porcelain brings the 70s classic back — now in tiles that are far more durable than poured terrazzo.</p><h2>Wood without the worry</h2><p>Wood-look planks with deep grain prints are the practical answer to the Instagram oak floor.</p><h2>Warm neutrals</h2><p>Beige, taupe, cream and soft greys dominate — rooms that feel like warm stone rather than cold concrete.</p>
