New York, NY (August, 2013) — Silestone (www.silestoneusa.com), a world leader in natural quartz surfacing, introduces
the second annual Silestone Design

innovative islands, Silestone is seeking designers who celebrate the influence
of color and push the envelope of design possibilities in the foremost room of

grand-prize winner will receive an all-expense-paid, six-day trip to Spain and

of a home, and innovative color and design truly enhances the multi-functional space.
As a company, we’re honored to recognize designers who rely on Silestone to creatively
