Some information about natural stone surfaces and claddings.

Natural stone surfaces are among the most appreciated solutions in interior and exterior design. Natural stone surfaces are authentic materials, quarried directly from nature and used for centuries to shape architectural and design spaces. 

Marble, granite, travertine, slate and quartzite are just some of the most common types, valued for their unique veining, color variety and ability to convey solidity and prestige. Unlike artificial surfaces, natural stone offers a unique aesthetic and a direct connection to the environment, making each slab a one-of-a-kind piece.
