Cotswold Grey – the calm that lives within stone
A new collection by Mia Urbo Stone x Lakehouse Stories
Sometimes beauty doesn’t need to shine.
It doesn’t need to draw attention – it only needs to soothe.
Cotswold Grey is a limestone that speaks softly. Its charm lies in subtlety – in the gentle shade of warm grey, in the delicate veining, and in the faint traces of ancient shells that nature impressed into every tile like quiet memories of time.
This is a stone that doesn’t simply decorate a space – it calms it, grounds it, balances it.
A stone with a soul – in rhythm with nature and architecture
Cotswold Grey is more than a material – it’s a philosophy of living.
It tells the story of harmony between nature and architecture, of spaces that breathe and homes that feel alive.
Inspired by the rolling hills of the English Cotswolds, where stone cottages blend effortlessly with the landscape and morning mist softens every edge, this limestone reminds us what truly matters: stillness, balance, simplicity.
Each Cotswold Grey tile is a piece of that story – antiqued, tumbled, softly weathered by time.
Its texture carries the memory of centuries, yet it feels fresh and timeless, quietly confident in its authenticity.
Timeless style – from country homes to quiet luxury interiors
This limestone flourishes in spaces that embrace both heritage and modernity.
Its noble tone harmonizes beautifully with farmhouse and rustic interiors, elegant Hamptons designs, or Japandi and quiet luxury spaces that celebrate calm sophistication.
The warm grey hue forms a neutral canvas for natural materials – wood, linen, glass, or metal.
Paired with soft whites, it creates serenity; combined with black or brass, it evokes refinement.
It’s a stone that requires no embellishment – it is the statement itself, the anchor of the room, the soul of the space.
Authenticity that deepens over time
Cotswold Grey is a stone with character.
Its surface is not perfect – and that’s precisely what makes it beautiful.
Subtle irregularities, gentle tonal shifts, delicate veins – all contribute to a natural pattern that gives each tile its own distinct personality.
As years pass, the stone develops a graceful patina, growing richer and warmer.
It doesn’t age – it matures.
It becomes part of the home’s story, living and evolving with every season, every touch, every ray of light.
Limestone in architecture – a heritage that endures
From ancient palaces and temples to modern villas and courtyards, limestone has shaped the architecture of civilizations.
It has always stood for endurance, sophistication, and quiet luxury – a material that blends beauty with substance.
Cotswold Grey carries that legacy forward.
It embodies timeless elegance, yet suits contemporary design.
Ideal for interiors and outdoor spaces alike, it speaks to those who value authentic craftsmanship and natural refinement.
This is a stone that doesn’t follow trends – it defines them.
Natural beauty deserves gentle care
Like every natural material, Cotswold Grey thrives when treated with respect.
To preserve its beauty, we recommend impregnating the surface after installation using a high-quality sealer formulated for natural stone.
The sealant penetrates the pores of the limestone, protecting it from moisture, stains, and dirt – without altering its color or texture.
Daily maintenance is effortless:
– use a soft cloth, warm water, and a neutral pH cleaner.
Avoid harsh chemicals or acids – this stone appreciates subtlety and care.
Re-sealing every couple of years will help maintain its flawless appearance for decades.
For interiors that have meaning
Cotswold Grey is for those who seek emotion in architecture.
For people who don’t chase trends, but authenticity.
For those who know that true luxury lies in silence, light, and space.
It’s perfect for:
– living rooms filled with natural daylight,
– kitchens and dining areas inspired by slow living,
– spa-like bathrooms,
– hallways, conservatories, terraces, and patios.
With its warm grey tone and frost-resistant durability, Cotswold Grey effortlessly connects indoor and outdoor spaces, creating a seamless flow between architecture and landscape.
Cotswold Grey – the essence of calm and class
Every home needs a foundation that sets the tone – Cotswold Grey is that foundation.
It doesn’t compete with the space; it enhances it.
It adds depth, light, and quiet character.
In its gentle grey lies a perfect balance between strength and softness,
between history and modernity,
between nature and craftsmanship.
Where stone meets light
Cotswold Grey is more than a surface – it’s a living, breathing material that changes with the light.
At dawn, it glows softly; at dusk, it turns deep and mysterious.
In every hour of the day, it reveals a new facet of its quiet beauty.
It’s a choice for those who believe that architecture should soothe, not overwhelm,
for those who value serenity, harmony, and timeless grace.
Cotswold Grey – serenity carved in stone.
For homes that breathe.
For spaces that endure.
For people who live in rhythm with nature.
