For new builds this stone blends seamlessly into natural landscapes, while still upholding a contemporary appearance that can be matched with either traditional or modern finishes.

- Mullion windows

Ashlar stone can be laid horizontal, with blocks laid in parallel or at random to create discontinuous vertical and horizontal joints. They can also be left rough and unpolished, or polished and rendered decoratively to meet the requirements of the client’s design.
