One of the fun things about my job is that I get to see what products are trending. And just when you think last season's product introductions can't be topped, another new and amazing collection surfaces.
As the summer winds down and we gear up for another trade show season, I'm beginning to get excited to see what tile and stone manufacturers have come up with this time. In a few weeks, I head to Italy for Marmomacc — the largest international stone exhibition, which is held annually in Verona, Italy. This is always one of my favorite trips. For starters, Italy is a beautiful place with delicious cuisine, but beyond that, the show is a display of innovation. There are always new introductions of exotic stones and unique finishes.
