simulating travertine?

anyone got any ideas on how to simulate the look of travertine in an efficient, inexpensive way?
obviously, it'll never look 100% real but one thought i had was to variably tint concrete and grind the face.
gotta find a method and|or material for wall panel installations, preferably monolithic but maybe modular.

1. dress in a white linen suit and go swimming in a pool of chocolate syrup mixed with olive oil.

2. get out and lay on the floor and stay very very still for many years.

Travertine printed plastic laminate? It's easy to bookmatch.

And I think Mies used it on his kitchen cupboards.
