i am so behind and would guess that i am a not such an efficient blogger as it has been a month
with kids home for thanksgiving and too many projects on my plate
here i am looking at stone for a client's exterior walls and some interior as well
a walling stone that is local and that i have always had my eye on
from
cross creek bldg center in malibu is
moss flagstone
 |
| moss flagstone sold by weight in 1.5" thickness |
another walling stone is montecito stone wall cladding
from
phoenician stone
also like easy to find texas cream cladding
here from
floor tile and slate company
 |
| texas cream |
also available in slabs
a material that i have wanted to use is a cement stone by
dac-art
a concrete block building system
and some european options that i am waiting for samples to possibly order
bricks that come in full size by pallet or veneer options per piece
sda-decoration
 |
| briques blanche forum square edges |
 |
| briques retro casalina aged edges |

and i am exploring getting Syrian stone and this beautiful stone from favignana, sicily
that i first saw on archilovers website
project
cave bianche hotel
 |
| quarry favignana italy |
see also
project saraceno for nice use of stone but not my favorite material
