Commercial building design is increasingly taking a cue from the residential market as natural elements are used to convey a feeling of warmth and strength in exteriors, as well as interiors. Stone veneer is part of the trend—and that offers a rock-solid advantage to commercial and residential designers, installers and owners.
For designers, stone veneer offers broad design versatility, with a wide range of profiles, colors and accessories. Stone veneer installation can be completed faster and easier than full bed stone, offering time and cost benefits to building contractors. For owners, stone veneer presents an opportunity for a stone look, at a significantly lower cost than full bed stone. Additionally, stone veneer is a product that can help building professionals reach sustainability goals, and add the stylish appeal of masonry at any stage of the building’s lifecycle.
