Project Highlights Showcasing Excellence in Natural Stone

Residential Triumphs

Cathedral Limestone Vision: Lynda Kerry’s Residence

Featured in Belle Magazine, this project masterfully blends American heritage with Spanish mission aesthetics. Cathedral Limestone in alfresco finish graces the pool coping, step treads, entryway, and balconies, while complementing the warm timber surrounds in the central hub. The dramatic entrance features our Charcoal Granite Cobblestones and Flamed tiles, while the stunning pool area showcases Snowflake Mosaic tile interior bordered by Cathedral Limestone, creating a luxurious retreat.

Crema Vialle Limestone Elegance: Roseville Chase Haven

This waterfront residence demonstrates the transformative power of Crema Vialle Limestone across over 400 square meters. The honed finish flows throughout all living areas, bathrooms, walls, and the elevator floor, while the alfresco finish extends through outdoor living areas and pool surrounds. The master ensuite introduces striking contrast with Monaco brown slabs, while custom-sized treads and risers enhance internal and external staircases.

Ocean Grey Granite Excellence: Balmoral Oasis

This sophisticated renovation showcases Ocean Grey Granite’s versatility with custom-sized pavers, step treads, and risers in an alfresco finish. Meticulously installed on pedestals throughout the entry path, terrace, and BBQ area, the stone’s unique colour movement seamlessly blends with the surrounding landscape. The P5 slip resistance ensures safety in outdoor applications while maintaining its luxurious aesthetic, making it a perfect choice for this long-standing client’s residence.

The light and dark grey blend complements the home’s modern five-level design while providing essential durability for a property featuring three pools. Inspired by Australia’s luxury boutique hotels, this project exemplifies the perfect marriage of aesthetics and functionality.

Commercial Triumphs

Transurban’s Ocean Grey Granite

Occupying three floors of the iconic 210 George Tower, this Bates Smart-designed headquarters showcases custom-sized Ocean Grey Granite in a honed finish.

The elongated strips create a captivating masterpiece that connects infrastructure with community, earning a shortlist position for the NSW Architecture Awards. Natural stone flooring enhances the sensory experience while maintaining a strong connection to materiality throughout.

Assembly Label’s Tavira Limestone

This sophisticated retail space in Karrinyup showcases our Tavira Limestone in a honed finish. Specified by We Are Triibe, the limestone’s earthy tones and smooth finish create an inviting atmosphere, complemented by warm timber accents.

The thoughtful integration of natural materials demonstrates how stone can elevate the retail experience while maintaining a welcoming ambience.

Industry Leadership

Marmomac 2024, Verona

Our Managing Director’s journey to this year’s Marmomac Trade Show continues to shape our vision for innovation. This global stone exhibition serves as a valuable platform for discovering emerging trends and connecting with industry leaders from around the world. The insights gained from this international exchange continue to influence our approach to natural stone solutions.

ArchiPro Home Design Event Success

Our participation in this year’s ArchiPro Home Design Evening in Sydney, marked a significant milestone, connecting us with over 900 industry professionals and homeowners. The event showcased active building projects valued at over $359M, resulting in more than 2,600 meaningful industry connections. This record-breaking engagement demonstrates the growing demand for premium natural stone solutions in Australian architecture and design.

Industry Thought Leadership

Through collaboration with Supplier Magazine, we shared our expertise across three comprehensive articles, exploring key topics in natural stone applications. From safety considerations to innovations in wall cladding and global market trends, these pieces reflect our commitment to advancing industry knowledge and best practices.

Product Innovation

Our premium stone collection expanded with the launch of Cathedral Crazy Paving, featuring sandy tones and distinctive tumbled edges that bring timeless elegance while providing an organic ‘aged’ look and feel.

Team Celebrations

We’re incredibly proud of Travis Bazzana, son of our own Gary Bazzana.  Travis made history as the first Australian to be selected in the first round of the Major League Baseball draft.  We wish him all the best in his professional career with the Cleveland Guardians.

Looking Forward to 2025

We will be open until December 20, 2024, returning refreshed on January 6, 2025, to begin an exciting new year at 43 Herbert Street, Artarmon. We are grateful to our valued clients and partners for their continued trust and look forward to creating more beautiful spaces together in 2025.
