7 Real Project Photos: Large Size Linear Travertine for Modern Interior Walls

Tucked into a 1920s building in Barcelona's Eixample district, this 85m² apartment was due for a refresh. The, a young architect, wanted to honor the building's history while infusing modern simplicity. The solution? A feature wall in Linear Travertine (claybank) spanning the living room, paired with warm Wood Grain Board on adjacent walls.

The travertine, cut into 120x60cm slabs, stretches from floor to ceiling, its soft claybank hue (think warm sand at dawn) balancing the apartment's cool white walls and large windows. What makes it unforgettable? The way sunlight slants through those windows at 9 a.m., turning the travertine's linear veins into rivers of gold. Run a hand over it, and you'll feel the subtle ridges—nature's fingerprint—adding depth without clutter. The Wood Grain Board, used for the TV niche, adds a cozy contrast, making the space feel both grounded and airy. "It's like bringing a piece of the Mediterranean countryside indoors," the says. "Even on rainy days, the wall glows."

In Kyoto, where tradition and innovation coexist, the Starry Green Boutique Hotel wanted a lobby that felt both rooted in Japanese aesthetics and out of this world. Enter Travertine (Starry Green)—a rare variant with tiny, iridescent "star" inclusions—and Lunar Peak Silvery, a sleek, moon-like stone with a metallic sheen.

The main wall behind the reception desk is clad in 3m-tall Starry Green travertine slabs. By day, it's a deep, mossy green with subtle cream veins, evoking Kyoto's ancient forests. By night, under LED spotlights, the "stars" (actually mineral deposits) catch the light, twinkling like a clear night sky. Flanking it are Lunar Peak Silvery panels, their silvery surface reflecting the travertine's glow, creating the illusion of a horizon where earth meets space. Guests often pause here, hands brushing the travertine's cool surface, as if touching a piece of the cosmos. "We wanted guests to feel small in the best way—connected to something bigger," says the hotel's designer. Mission accomplished.

Berlin's café scene thrives on edge, and "Concrete & Co." is no exception. But instead of leaning into harsh industrialism, the owners opted for balance: Fair-Faced Concrete walls softened by Foamed Aluminium Alloy Board (Vintage Silver) and accents of Linear Travertine (claybank).

The back wall, a expanse of Fair-Faced Concrete, brings that signature raw, unpolished vibe—think exposed aggregates and subtle color variations that tell the story of its making. But it's the Vintage Silver Aluminium panels, mounted horizontally in thin strips, that add warmth. Their matte, aged finish catches the café's amber pendant lights, casting soft, golden shadows. And then there's the travertine: a narrow strip of Linear Travertine (claybank) runs along the counter, its veins matching the Aluminium's lines, tying the look together. The result? A space that feels rugged yet welcoming, where the clink of coffee cups mingles with the quiet beauty of imperfect materials. "Concrete can feel cold," says the café manager. "But with the travertine and aluminium, it's like giving the wall a hug."

In a city known for its rainy days, a Portland design studio needed a workspace that fought the gloom—not with bright colors, but with texture and light. The answer: Lunar Peak Silvery walls paired with Wood Grain Board, creating a space that feels like a forest clearing on a misty morning.

The main studio wall is covered in Lunar Peak Silvery, a stone with a smooth, almost pearlescent surface that shifts from cool silver to warm ivory as the day progresses. On overcast days, it reflects what little light there is, keeping the room from feeling dim. Opposite it, Wood Grain Board adds warmth, its natural knots and grains a nod to Oregon's forests. The contrast is striking but never jarring—silver and wood, modern and organic, working in harmony. "We used to struggle with productivity on rainy days," says the studio's lead designer. "Now? The wall feels like a quiet companion. It doesn't demand attention; it just… supports." Even better? The Lunar Peak's non-porous surface means whiteboards and sticky notes adhere easily, blending function with beauty.

Sydney's Golden Hour Restaurant takes its name seriously—every detail is designed to celebrate that fleeting, magical time when the sun dips below the horizon. The star of the show? A feature wall clad in Travertine (Starry Orange) and Lunar Peak Golden, turning the dining room into a sunset that lasts all night.

The Starry Orange travertine, with its warm terracotta base and flecks of gold (the "stars"), covers the wall behind the bar. When the restaurant's golden pendant lights hit it, the travertine glows like embers, making even a simple glass of wine feel special. Below it, Lunar Peak Golden panels add depth, their metallic sheen mimicking the sun's last rays. The effect is intimate and grand all at once—guests sit close, sharing stories, while the wall looms large, a silent ode to nature's most beautiful hour. "We wanted people to feel like they're dining at sunset, no matter what time they arrive," says the chef. "The travertine does that. It's not just a wall—it's an emotion."

Amsterdam's "Linear" retail store sells minimalist home goods, so its interior needed to be a showcase—not a distraction. Enter Dolomitic Travertine (Dark Grey) and Fine Line Stone (Grey), two materials that prove simplicity can be stunning.

The entire back wall is Dolomitic Travertine (Dark Grey), a dense, moody stone with thin, linear veins of lighter grey that echo the store's "linear" theme. It's paired with Fine Line Stone (Grey), used for the display shelves and checkout counter, its ultra-thin, uniform lines adding a sense of order. The result? A backdrop so sleek, it makes the store's ceramic vases and linen cushions pop. But it's the texture that surprises: run a hand over the travertine, and you'll feel its subtle pits and ridges, a reminder that even "minimalist" doesn't mean "cold." "We wanted the walls to let the products shine," says the store owner. "But we also wanted them to have personality. This travertine? It has both."

In Bali, where wellness is a way of life, a retreat center needed walls that felt like an extension of the island's lush landscape. The solution? Travertine (Light Grey) and Weaving (Beige), creating a space that's as calming as a morning yoga session.

The main therapy room wall is covered in Travertine (Light Grey), its soft, almost white surface marbled with pale grey veins that look like mist rising over rice terraces. It's porous enough to absorb sound, making the room feel hushed and sacred. Opposite it, Weaving (Beige) panels—handwoven from natural fibers—add warmth and movement, their loose, organic pattern a contrast to the travertine's linear veins. Together, they create a space that feels both grounded and weightless, like being wrapped in a cloud. "Our guests often comment on how 'breathable' the room feels," says the retreat's founder. "That's the travertine. It doesn't just look natural—it acts natural, too."
