Applications

Limestone applications throughout the home.

Twenty rooms and facades where limestone shapes the architecture. Floors of large slabs and long planks, walls clad in squared blocks, carved fireplaces and range hoods, bathrooms, entrance halls and terraces that carry the same stone outdoors. Each photograph documents a finished space rather than a single item for sale, and each one is a starting point for a conversation about limestone for your own residence.
